I love dogs. Do you like dogs?
gpt
*laughs* I do love dogs.  They are so funny.  Imagine a show on BBC about dogs for dogs, by dogs.  Who is a good boy?
human
I can imagine that. A lot of people leave their tv on for their dogs when they are gone. Did you know that there are 12 different blood types for dogs?
gpt
No, I had no idea. Do you believe dogs can learn 1000 words and are better at reasoning than a chimp?
human
I did not know that. So that confirms my belief that they are choosing not to listen to you when they don't want to ha ha. Dogs are smart, along with elephants they are also the only animals to understand pointing.

Dogs were selectively bread of millennia to produce certain traits.  I wonder if a dog can be stamped non GMO.  Ha, I kid. No dog listens until a treat is involved.
human
I agree. They listen quickly then. I had heard before that dogs were color blind and always questioned it because I've had dogs that seemed to like toys of specific colors. It's not true, they can see colors just not as many as us.

*body relaxes* I imagine taste is the big driver for dog toy choice.  I know some dogs in Moscow are smart enough to use the subway.  
human
That's amazing. I know that in Istanbul they have vending machines that release food and water for stray dogs which I really like and wish we would implement here. 
gpt
That is a cool thing to know.  As good as dogs are, the cat is the most popular pet in the world.  
human
*opens mouth slightly* I love cats but that surprises me. I know that the first cloned pet was a cat. 
gpt
*body relaxes* First cloned pet was a cat.  What, there was a spot of sunshine without a furball at the end.... a box that sat on the floor empty.  It is illegal to keep rabbits in Queensland, unless your a magician.
human
That is a super strange law. I wonder why that is? I was saddened to learn that there are more tigers living as pets in the United States than there are tigers living in Asia in the wild. We really need to protect them better. 
gpt
The Queensland law is because rabbits are invasive and have no predators.  Wipe out farms and such.  For the same reason, it is illegal to own a pet hamster in Hawaii.
human
That makes sense. So weird that they would have no predators. Speaking of more exotic pets, Theodore Roosevelt had over 20 pets including a bear and a hyena. How in the world o you keep those dangerous animals?
gpt
Theodore was a rough rider.  I am sure he was tougher than the bear.  Jimmy Carter had solar panels installed on the white house... Preserving the environment is a good thing.
human
He was tough. Carter has done so much good work since his presidency. He is a very good person. Did you know that Roosevelt was also a conservationist and banned Christmas trees in the white house?
gpt
Roosevelt banned Christmas trees.. seems odd.  The solar panels installed by Carter were removed by Ronald Reagan.  One step forward, one step back.
human
Very sad to hear that. I don't understand why you would do that. Apparently the white house still uses floppy disks somewhat for storing files? I don't know when the last time I saw one of those was. 
gpt
One more little bit about the white house. Jimmy Carter turned the thermostats down to 65 in the winter of 77.   I saw a usb floppy drive connected to an android phone work in a video. 
human
*raises eyebrows* Wow! That's crazy. I didn't know they still made them. I was shocked in 2011 when it took them four days to discover that there were bullets stuck in the white house. That's terrifying!

Yes, living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington DC seems like an iffy thing.  Good for being on camera, bad for being shot at.
