Dogs are not people, we must remember, even though we Coloradans often treat them as such with our doggie bars, doggie hotels, and doggie spas.
No, dogs are not people. They do not cheat on you, give up on you, ignore you or abandon you during tough times. Their love is pretty much unconditional in my experience, no matter how unlovable their owners sometimes act.
Dogs do not have people emotions. No, their emotions are more steadfast and generous than that. Certainly my dog had better social skills than I, always greeting every day, every trail and every person he met like they were the most interesting thing on the planet.
