I wonder if the more intelligent dog breeds project canine mental models onto humans? Fidomorphization?
Joking. Mostly.

To clarify: I mean do they incorrectly project some kind of doggie mental models onto humans?
(I am, of course, anthropomorphizing.)

I once read the dogs think they’re humans within the human pack they’re part of, while cats assume you’re a cat and part of their cat pack/nest.
Explains a lot.
I continue to remind myself there are about dozen semi-popular books about brain I need to read...
Hopefully, I get to partially answer this afterwards
It would explain why cats HATE new people because cats hate other/new cats.
