A PET THAT NEVER DIES - PERFECT FOR ME

One of the main reasons why I have always been hesitant to own a pet is because pets usually die before their owners. They are also prone to the same diseases as humans - and I hate seeing anyone suffer - including a dumb animal.
That is why I am now thinking that Sony's latest Aibo robot dog will be the perfect pet for me. It was recently launched, is so adorable - and behaves like a real pooch. He even wears two small cameras which helps him recognize different family members.
Other reasons why I would like my Aibo dog - is that I won't have to walk him, feed him or clean up after him. 
What do you think? Would you want an Aibo robot dog for a pet or as a companion for your pet?

@allknowing It is warm - in any event I dislike being breathed upon.

Seems like a toy rather than a pet to me but it is a good companion for us or to our pets.

I have always had pets and yes....pets dying is like someone is squeezing my heart. The robot might be fun for a bit...but we can't make real connections with it.
So whenever I get a new dog....it will be real. 
P.S- Animals are not dumb.

You are right, it feels sad when your pet passed away before you, I felt that way

@resukill22 It is a Sony product - and presently available only in Japan. When it gets to the U.S. and other countries the price would be about $1700 U.S.

@Kandae11 That dog will not suddenly put its paws on my shoulders lick my face and run away to show sudden surge of affections, nor will it come near me when I am sad, understanding that I am not ok and try to snuggle as if saying I understand your feelings. The first action was from a naughty Labrador pup. Second action was from aged Alsatian. There is no substitute as far as I am concerned. I am willing to work hard for such honest and deep feelings.

@vandana7 Yes of course, we all have our own feelings about things. If we all shared the same feelings and likes - what a dull world it would be. And to be honest, I would truly hate having my face licked by a dog or a cat - like they say - "different strokes for different folks"

Yes, that would suit me perfectly, since I have the same ideas about not wanting to own a live pet as you do. Also, if I didn't get an Aibo dog, just having a stuffed toy dog, cat or bear is another alternative.
