[quote=FlyerInHi]It’s not about the dogs. It’s about humans.

I loved my dog because I raised her and I knew her. I don’t know the foreign tourist.

I loved my dog because she was a constant faithful companion. I loved looking at her cute face. She made no demands of me other than exercise, food and body massages.

When you have to deal with the egos of humans you appreciate dogs more. Humans are psychotic. They have insecurities and they always worry about being dissed.

I very much enjoyed the peacefulness of quiet times petting my dog.

Ok, you can puke already.[/quote]

you know the foreign tourist is a human being. You know your dog is a dog and you can choose from 10000 replacement dogs. You still get to keep your happy fur petting memories. Is that not enough? Must the person die so you can pat your puppy a few more times?
