There's a dog near us that would open the door for them just to get some

I don't have a dog (would like to get one, but it's a choice between
having a wife or a dog, and for reasons which I won't explore here the
wife gets the vote).

Really annoys me when people treat their animals like this by leaving
them neglected for long hours day after day.
