Take that damned dog haters! :-)

They needed a study for this? Dogs really don’t like you getting near their food bowl or treat — even after you just gave it to them.

"Domestic dogs show many adaptations to living closely with humans, but they do not seem to reciprocate food-giving according to a study"
Cats are the same way...
"Hey, c'mon cat, let me have some!"

“In our study, pet dogs received food from humans but did not return the favor.”
I guess they have never been on a hunt for pheasant or ducks with dogs.

They are beasts Phys.org. Sheesh. One of the best I might add. They are not image bearers of God.

The dogs wouldn’t bring back cooked pheasants or ducks.
To: LibWhacker
Our cat gave us food all the time; squirrels, rabbits, mice...
Dogs are good for nothing. Barking, sh!tting, killing people occasionally. Lots of dogs have vanished from my neighborhood.
To: LibWhacker
Have an indoor/outdoor cat. They are always bringing in little food presents. One time I got a dead bird delivered right to my pillow.
To: LibWhacker
Ever heard of hunting dogs?
To: LibWhacker
Dogs don't give humans food because they acknowledge humans for having intelligence and hunter/gatherer abilities far greater than their own. They know that humans don't need their charity.
So they are more inclined to help out their own kind in that respect.

So they are more inclined to help out their own kind in that respect. It must. be noted that they are totally unwilling to help out cats. Nope. Not going to happen.

Dogs may not return their owners' good deeds The results of this Scientific Study may very well be correct.
In 15 1/2 years, my dog has NOT ONCE put food on my plate, nor ever filled my glass with water. Not even Once.
And, after ALL I've done for her...

Study proves dogs don’t like Jim McGetrick and colleagues at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna, Austria.

If it was not for global warming, these dogs would have.
