What's a normal amount of time dogs should want to be around you?
My 2 dogs only like to be around me for maybe 30minutes of the day, the other 23.5 hours they're off doing their own shit.
They have no interest in playing with me or just chilling out with me.
Is it because I'm always home? Did they just get use to mr always being around and got sick of me?

Dw about it, dogs are like that. They might just be the curious type, bur don't want to play. I suggest taking them out on long walks in new places. What kind of dogs are they?
Be glad, dogs are vermin.
Rats make better pets than dogs.

West highland terriers. They're both turning 10 soon (sisters from same litter)

Not sure about that breed. Labradors are pretty much the most loving dog breed I know. Maybe your dogs don't like an activity you are doing?

West highland terriers are not lapdogs, they're independent dogs with high prey drive (hence why they'd be off doing their own thing) You got the wrong kind of breed if you wanted a typical loving pet.
T. Use to have westies growing up, they basically spent the entire day on search and destroy mode hunting rodents.

yes, take your damn dogs outside for a good walk or run or game of fetch. Then they'll be very interested and excited about your presence, trust me.
When dogs are at home they spend most of their time sleeping.

I guess this makes sense, they have killed a lot of mice over the years. I don't know how they catch them and kill them, blows my mind. I've had to remove so many mice with snapped necks from them.

I walk them at least an hour everyday.

My dog can't get enough of me (I'm the only one in the house who really plays with her or gives here attention) and she always tries to stop me going upstairs (dog isn't allowed upstairs because of all the hairs that will get stuck in our carpet floor). She's a black labrador.
