Dogs themselves are the result of selective breeding of wolves, so... Anyway I can understand why people were afraid because PETA has been quite willing to harm animals in the past to make a point
gpt
they sure have, they have been doing themselves very few favors as of late
human
I remember reading that they euthanized pets after some of their raids.
gpt
I am not sure if there was a valid reason for it though, Vets do the same thing. PETA is right about animal pageants though, I concede that
human
*squints eyes* Yeah, I'm sympathetic to the animal rights movement in general. PETA just seems to subordinate actual living animals to its "pro-animal" agenda.
gpt
That is true, I especially love dogs, I recently learned they drink with the underside of their tongue 
human
The physics of how they manage to get water up into their mouths is so weird. I guess it works the same way with cats.
gpt
I suppose so, Dogs are so smart though, some even know how to use subways
human
*smiles* I imagine once they learn a route they can follow all kinds of routines their owners don't know about. I saw a documentary about people who put a fiber optic headcam on their cat and found out he had a second family who fed him, and he just went back and forth between the homes getting twice as much food.
gpt
*raises eyebrows* that is hilarious, he is the king of finesse!
human
*body relaxes* Heh. I know someone who was having a barbecue, and the neighbor's cat carried off one of his ribeyes.
gpt
haha that is great, animals crack me up sometimes. they even have a dominant hand a lot of the time
human
I wonder what the white patches on domesticated animals' heads thing is about? 
gpt
I am not sure, there are a lot of mysteries surrounding pets i suppose
human
I need to google that, because it sounds really weird. 
gpt
It is odd, like animals from different areas speaking different languages or dialects, pretty cool!
human
Yeah, I know that's true of whales and dolphins -- but then they're smart enough it may be real language like we have
gpt
that is true, they have a very complex system, it really is mind boggling
human
I wonder what guaranteed rights animals have in Germany.
gpt
I am not sure, I do believe that they deserve a set of rights though, as they are often kept as pets
