you shouldn't value the life of a dog over human life. that's wrong. when people act that way it's a product of naivety. they're probably young and immature. if they aren't young or immature, then they're deluded.
i'm a dog lover. dogs love me, and i love them back. it's been that way for as long as i can remember. i'm not saying i'm unique in that regard, but i do think that i've got an easier time of relating to dogs than your average bloke.
i've had dogs that would follow me into a burning building. a dog saved my mother's life when she was just out of college, perhaps twice. little bertha, . it FREAKED THE F#CK out when she had a "peeping tom" outside of her window. she may or may not have been in danger then. and it REALLY FREAKED THE **** OUT when her building burnt to the ground, waking her up and without a doubt saving her life. i wouldn't be here if that dog didn't wake my mother up.
dogs are incredible animals. man created the domestic dog over tens of thousands of years through selective breeding and geographical isolation. their capacity to value the life of people and animals with which they share kinship is the same as ours.
to value the life of a dog over that of a human is wrong. human life is more valuable than the life of a dog. that said, the domestic dog is one of man's greatest accomplishments. they're incredible animals. you'd be shocked how quickly the right dog can make you feel like he's part of the family. that's really all a dog wants.
