Dogs are evolutionarily connected with humans. The process can’t be undone.
30,000 plus years together does that. I grew up on a ranch with working cattle dogs, and have had a dog most of my life. I'm of the opposite opinion, I feel like humans who don't connect with dogs are broken somehow, they are missing part of themselves.
Dogs are not a lifestyle accessory. Our commodity culture has caused so much damage to the human-animal bond.
There’s a great book on this I read by a dog behavior psychologist called Our Dogs, Ourselves.
It also has a kids edition and I got a copy for my family.
