How do you get to be a Starfleet captain when you're missing vital life experiences????

In the episode of TNG when Counselor Troi has a baby, her son gets to play with puppies in the little preschool/daycare thing they have on the Enterprise. Then later he's talking to Captain Picard, and asks him if he's ever played with puppies.

Picard says he hasn't.

HE HAS NEVER PLAYED WITH PUPPIES! HOW do you get to be, what, 50 years old - not to mention a Starfleet captain - without having EVER played with puppies?????

Well, like maybe he was busy figting Klingons?

Nah, the Federation and the Klingons had been at peace for at least 50 years by then, leaving plenty of time for all Starfleet officers to play with puppies.
