    Dogs served in war at least as much as horses, and are currently doing so in larger numbers.

    Dog: Does he let you sleep in his bed?

      I remember a horse that would play with one of those big inflatable exercise balls. Still wouldn’t fetch though.

        Was expecting the creepy spider dog. This looks like Eric Cartman’s dog in the future.

          Knowing MC Chris they’re probably complaints about the sound levels or the dogs social media posts.

      It’s a mainly with predators that we have an easier time toilet training them. Evolution has killed off those that shat in their own caves because of diseases and bringing food back to a contaminated den will in turn contaminate the food. Whereas horses and most other herbivores live out in the open, move around more and travel long distances to graze.

    I could be wrong about this but I’m fairly sure dogs have been with man for A LOT longer. Like 40,000 years ago, and I think, just from a quick Google, horses are like 4000 years…

    Jazira: What does this mean?

    Frank T. Hopkins: Shunka Wakan? Big dog. There’s no word in Sioux for horse. When the Indians saw the first one the Spanish brought over, they didn’t know what the hell it was. When they saw how it could run, carry a man through battle, become his friend for life, well, they figured it had to be a sacred animal.

    Jazira: Indeed.

    One side of the war loves them, but I’m sure the other side doesn’t have nearly as high of an opinion.
