Absolutely true. Except when it comes to dogs and tea.

Dogs really are wonderful, we should all be a bit more like dogs.

Fatuous thing for a conservative to say. Dogs teach us the virtues of loyalty, courage and self-sacrifice.

I like Richard Dawkins’ comment on dogs: ‘They are such good sports’.
-
I think he attributed that to an unnamed friend of his, but yes, definitely
-
It's a footnote in The Greatest Show on Earth - I'm not aware that it's attributed to anyone else.
-
This may just show fallibility of memory. I recalled Ancestor's Tale. Should have waited until I could consult the book
-
I was right! It's in the discussion on mudskippers; he attributes it to "a girlfriend of mine long ago".
-
In the Ancestors Tale? I haven’t read that. He must have said it twice!
-
It's great, may even be my personal favourite. There's a revised edition (with expanded input from co-author Yan Wong) out recently
-
OK, I will put it on my 'To Read' list.

Not his point. To respect dogs, treat them as dogs and don’t anthromophise them.
