Look there is no point in arguing with those that attribute human qualities to dogs. I voiced an opinion and then let the matter drop. I am still waiting for the new definition of a human that consciously lays down his life in defense of others. "Hero" is now applied to everything from athletes to dogs. You folks go ahead and have fun. I apologize if I offended you.

Dogs have often rescued others on their own. Humans are not the only courageous beings on earth.

Naw, you didn't offend me. I know everybody has a different experiences: but I place dogs WAY above so-called sports "heroes". "Hero" is a word I don't use lightly...
