itp: dogs know

[shamedbythecone]

[In your mess hall, there is a dog, and he seems to be staring at a package that is up on a table]

I do not believe that this is bacon.

You're right. It's not.

[shamedbythecone]

Then why do they say that we do not know it is not bacon?

[screwfate]

Because most people wouldn't be able to ask dogs to know it's not true. It's people who they want to buy them.

[shamedbythecone]

Then they assume we are dumb then?

[screwfate]

It's a safe assumption that they do.

[grr grr, but not at you :|b]

It's not uncommon for people to think that way.

[shamedbythecone]

I have not encountered that line of thought before.

[screwfate]

You have the advantage of being able to speak for yourself.

And my contact with mailmen before coming to this place has been limited.

*glances at the collar*

Was it.

[shamedbythecone]

Yes.

[screwfate]

What do humans normally do with you?

[shamedbythecone]

The old master would use me and the pack to help him search for the bird that is known as Kevin.

New master enjoys our company.

[screwfate]

...And there weren't many dog treats involved?

[shamedbythecone]

That depended on how that day's hunt went.
