person A: After a long few months of being a hermit_comma_ I went out the other day to the shelter to play with some pups!
person B: I bet that felt good to get out and experience that!
person A: It was definitely exciting for me! I haven't been able to play with a dog since my own passed away.
person B: Oh I am sorry to hear that. I also enjoy dogs. They are one of life's great joys in my opinion.
