Professor
Our dogs and cats have always made us feel good about ourselves and we spend more on our pets these days than ever before. Before next class, I would like for you to discuss this question: Do people nowadays spend too much money on their pets (dogs, cats, or other animals)? Why do you think so?
Student A
I think people nowadays spend too much money on their pets. It is estimated that pet spending exceeds 72 billion dollars every year, including food, vet care, pet services, supplies, etc. To be honest, I don’ think spending 200 dollars on a dog’s haircut is necessary given that many poor families still need money to eat and live. Therefore, we need to budget for pet costs, and the money saved can be spent on better causes like charities and education. The sooner you cut expenses on pet care, the more options you will have to make a better life.
Student B
Pets are part of our family. They give us love, pleasure, and companionship. It is noted that pet ownership can improve physical and mental health. Dog owners can have more exercises and cat owners experience less loneliness. They are priceless friends with few demands. When we spend time and money on pets, we want to make sure they are living a healthy and respectful life because we are the only supporters they have. Spending money on our pets can put a smile on our faces because we love to see pets are well fed and well cared for. It is the same way we see our loved ones being taken good care of.
