Nuance Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 A bit of math about border collies(dogs) and the time you think you spend on them. If you were to spend two hours a day on your dog , after 12 years you would have spent 1 year on the dog. One year in a life span of twelve that has passed. 2hrs a day x 365 days a year = 730hrs every year , 730hrs x 12 years life span (average) = 8760hrs , 8760 divided by 24(hours in a day)= 365 days 2 1/2 x 365=912.5 912.5x12=10950hrs 10950 divided by 24= 456.25 days or 1 year 3months 3 x 365 =547 .50 days 1 year 6months 3 1/2 x365 =638.75days 1 year 9 months 4 =730days or 2 years 4 1/2 =821.25 2 years 3months 5 =912.50 2 years 6 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrecar Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 I checked your math in Excel. You’re good. =((2*365)*12)/24 …….. =((5*365)*12)/24; 365…….912.50 Seriously though, I think it is great that you want to provide the best life possible for your Border Collie. Since I retired from semi-retirement to further my studies, I spend nearly 24/7 with my dogs. You’d think they’d be sick of me, but Jan, especially, still pokes her head around the door to make sure I haven’t drowned in the shower.
