Personally I do suspect that there are some aspects of social hierarchy that relate to our relationship with our dogs. However, I also think it is extremely complicated and easily misunderstood. I think we have a lot to learn about how dogs perceive us, and how they categorize us in relation to other dogs. We clearly are not dogs to them, but then… we clearly are members of their ‘pack.’ I don’t think as of now, anyone has a definitive answers to this question, but I love pondering upon the question. It’s a little like thinking about how many stars there are in the sky….
