You Should Go Fishing With A Dog--It's Adorable!

@Chazzzy That's hilarious! Your poor sims pets, LOL. They can be more work and less fun than anticipated, so I'm careful which houses I add them to now. This one is working out great, though. He's a farm dog, so I made him adventurous and independent since my family has a lot of work to do and can't cater to him all the time. Plus, it's the 1800s and they don't have TV or anything, so playing with the dog fills their fun need up pretty quickly. And lastly, it's a big family, so I think that helps because there are more people to interact with him and feed him and it doesn't just fall to one person.

@Chazzzy Yes! I had the sim put the dog on a leash and walk to the fishing spot then take the leash off, so they would all be together. Surprisingly, the dog doesn't scare off the fish, at least as far as I could tell, since my sims each caught one.

I'm curious - why did you stop playing with pets?
