I agree with this to a point. I don’t lose sight of the fact that they are dogs and not humans. In the old cavalry, men developed close relationships to their horses. But at the end of the day, they took them into battle where they were killed, but they also were often without forage or supplies, and their animals suffered. If one was injured, broke a leg, they’d put it out of its misery. We don’t do the same with a soldier.
