Well lets see. I think I do pretty well. Dh is so busy, poor guy, but he tries.
Diesel, I think of her as a grumpy old woman. She is our older cat. Everything has to be on her terms. She will really only accept a bunch of attention when she wants. So there are days when she is a loner. But when she is willing, she will nap by me when my son is napping or do a drive by pet if she feels like it.
Max, our younger cat he gets his time off and on through the day and also sleeps at our feet, so right before bed he gets his lovins.
Chloe, our puppy she gets time off and on through the day too. My son pays a lot of attention to her and likes to play. She also will nap on my lap in the afternoons. She gets a lot of lovin.

It sounds like a lot of time but shelties can be high energy and a tired dog is a good dog. LOL I'd like to spend more time with them. Fortunately, they're not as high energy as my aussie was. She'd play until she'd drop if I'd let her.
