Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.45.2.3400 (64 Bit)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Pets
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Give a beagle smart, couch Potato, and loyal traits. I think couch potato is the biggest problem, but unsure. Her energy will be critically low all the time (I think this is the issue), so she will wait to eat until the warning for her to be taken away comes up.
What happens when the bug occurs? This mostly seems to happen after giving her attention, but could be a coincidence. She will go to her food bowl, and either fall asleep in front of it, or reach it just in time for the pet care worker to take her away. Even when she does eat everything else tends to stay in the red.
What do you expect to see? Make it so dogs, especially those with couch potato trait, take better care of their hunger and other needs. Couch potato should happen after her needs are taken care of. So maybe rather than causing increased energy drain, allow them to sleep for fun. Or at the very least, have them prioritize hunger over energy.

I play on PS4. I don't know how to upload my save file.
Update 1:
Weird update. Dog ate until it didn't need to be taken away anymore, so the pet care worker stopped taking her away (as far as I can tell). However, he is acting like a guest that I can't interact with. So he entered my home, took some food, played on my computer, and preventing me from building or saving my game. I'll update again if/when he leaves.
Update 2: At night time, the worker left. Dog stayed, but still wasn't doing anything. I went to build mode and placed an object on her, which reset her. Then it went into rescue mode again and she was taken away.
I've had the Cats and Dogs for a while now and this is the first time this has happened to me. My cat has a red moodlet and when ask whats wrong the prompt says the cat needs to be fed, albeit a full bowl. I call my cat to eat, he does, but the red moodlet is still there along with the prompt to feed him.
