“The whole “animal rights” movement with its theme that “dogs are just the same as people” has potentially broad destructive effects. Dogs are not the same as people. Dogs are dogs, and we have to teach people how to relate to them as
such.”
- Morgan Spector

Too true. Dogs are dogs and that’s what makes them special. If they were people, we would not like them nearly as much
I agree with LLCandD…We love our dogs for the differences not the similarities
I agree and I am reminded of this quote – “In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn’t merely try to train him to be semi human. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly a dog.” – Edward Hoagland
THANK YOU. I tell anyone who listens that I OWN my dogs, which makes me legally and morally responsible for their care and well-being; I am also the Mom, which, to me, means love :).
