Sceptical behaviourists often ask him, “How do you know dogs and elephants feel joy or jealousy or embarrassment?” Bekoff replies: “One retort is to say: how do you know they don’t? Darwin said there was continuity in evolution, so the differences between species are differences in degree rather than differences in kind. They’re shades of grey. “If we feel jealousy, then dogs and wolves and elephants and chimpanzees feel jealousy. Animal emotions are not necessarily identical to ours but there’s no reason to think they should be. Their hearts and stomachs and brains also differ from ours, but this doesn’t stop us from saying they have hearts, stomachs and brains. There’s dog joy and chimpanzee joy and pig joy, and dog grief, chimpanzee grief and pig grief.”

extreme behaviorists would say that human "feeling" is also merely a hard-wired response to external stimuli... Primates and in particular great apes are candidates for highly developed capabilities for empathy and theories of mind... Research suggests that canines can experience negative emotions in a similar manner to people.
