Personally, I wish we never change the time, for multiple reasons. On a medical level, I’ve read the risk of heart attack increases on the days we change the clocks. There’s scientific reasoning for it, I won’t get into the details here but it’s interesting if you look it up.
What do you all feel about NOT changing the clocks? What do you feel about changing them? And why?
I think there can be different arguments either way, and I’m curious to see what our fellow dog sport minded people think. (And you don’t need a dog sport reason behind your answer, this is pure curiosity and to learn other pros and cons)
Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 1, 2026, at 2:00 A.M., when clocks will “fall back” one hour to Standard Time. Most people will set their clocks back before going to bed on Saturday night, October 31, so they wake up at the correct time Sunday morning. . . but WHY?? 🕑️
Many Americans feel that changing clocks is outdated. In recent years, public frustration has fueled political momentum to make either DST or Standard Time permanent. While Congress has not yet passed legislation for permanent DST, states are taking matters into their own hands, and 29 states are actively pursuing some form of permanent time change.
In the U.S., there are some exceptions to DST that already exist: Arizona (except for the Navajo Nation), Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and American Samoa.
