I think that REAL dogs are the most loyal animal that we have and if we betray them, then what would really happen? Another extinct spieces? I believe that a real pet is much better. Even if these things have their own abilities, nothing will be able to compete with the original, loving animals that we know so much. But it is a matter of opinion. I still hope that people don’t forget about how much these animals mean to us. They were the first animals that we domesticated and used and they have forever been faithful and we should return that. My dog is like me in so many ways and we know what each other feels, she knows when im sad and i know when she is sad. Shes like me only a dog. They may be the same, but how many robo dogs are gonna come up and comfort you when you are crying or “listen” when you had a bad day? not many. You learn responsibility from pets. When you are little and you get a puppy, you have to feed it and water it every 2 times a day. This has always been a “tradition”. The average American family is symbolized as a dog named Spot playing with his owners Dick and Jane. This is all personally my opinion of course so feel free to choose your own way, but please dont forget our true friends, the ones with since we started to evolve!!!!!!

Known as “The Dogfather” in the virtual world Second Life,as well as in real life, I am Vitolo Rossini. I invite you to explore the Vitrtual world of 2nd Life, and to come to see me!
I own the VKC Dog Park at Canis Beach in the region of Rhoda. This has become the largest and most popular dog park in the virtual world of Second Life.
Owning and working with one of these dogs, can be the most rewarding experience you have ever had, in a computer “metaverse”. At my dog park my philosophy is “you bought a dog… you will get respect!”. We go out of our way at Canis Beach to make certain that all of your virtual dog needs are met 24/7.
Come and see me, and let me walk you through the experience of a lifetime!
The dogs are always getting new exciting features, and are true artificial intelligence , and can learn and develop as you do. This enhances your virtual experience to such an extent, that the great confidence you build carries over into your daily life. Success, after all begets further success, and I make sure all Virtual Dog experiences are successful ones.
I do not only work with VKC Dogs. I direct in world Services for All D&D Dog locations as well, and I provide consultation and assistance with any SL dog.
It is time for you to come and try Second Life. It is easily downloaded, and is a virtual world with endless possibilities! Once there contact me. For more info Google my name, or contact me through this Website!

To be any real competition to live dogs and cats, a robot would have to be fuzzy and cuddly, and most of all, it would have to be able to love you. I know my cat loves me, she meows a good morning to me when I wake up, and waits by the door for me when I come home.
