That seems like a double edged sword, because generally dogs physical condition starts deteriorating around 10. Lets say a dog lives to 20, not only do I not want to care for a dog with health issues for an extended period of time but it simply isn't fair to the dog. Yeah, I've seen people keep dogs around for a couple years or more having to use a sling to get their dog up off the ground and constantly changing diapers, but that's not fair for me or the dog.
That is my concern anyway. I'd rather have a dog live a very full life for ~12 years than to have many years after in a decrepit state.
