@Barklessdog:
I posted that relating that to dog owners who like to humanize their dogs, but when they go primal that image goes out the window.
The point was, people can dress up their little dogs and give them names, but deep inside they are primal animals. The Santa Basenji illustrates that idea.
That how it relates, to me, that's why I posted it.
We have a Christmas pillow with that picture!
I dunno….a little anthropomorphization (whoo...hard to spell) is okay. Dogs are similar to people, that is why we love them so much..and why they can share our homes. OUR dogs are maybe a little more primal......
Let's not forget that humans can be horrifyingly primal as well.....
