Dogs are pack animals. By definition, a social hierarchy. I don’t think it can be related to “morals.”
I have to constantly remind my wife of this. She let’s our Boston Terrier “boss” her around and be dominate. Big mistake with a dog. The dog won’t listen to her at all or obey any command.
I walk in the room, snap my finger and point at the ground. The dog will immediately stop and sit down and stay until I tell it is OK to proceed.

My wife is the same way with her dog, she let's her dog run all over her, does not disipline, spoils the dog rotten. Hence, her dog whines, does not mind her commands, just rotten to try to work with.
I have worked with my dog, taught her some simple commands and she minds very well, does not mind, won't beg and behaves well around company.
Dogs are animals, loveable animals, but they are just animals.
