I've eaten dog a couple of times overseas in Asia. Something about the circle of life puts the natural world into perspective.

I would say be wary of people who put dogs or any animal on a higher level than another human.

People in the Villages should not have to run a gauntlet of trust with everyone's dog every time they step outside. You have to pay attention to every dog that passes by or you just never know when the dog will perceive someone as a territorial threat and lunge at them.

There are "800,000 dog bites each year that require medical attention. Even more amazing is the fact that 334,000 are severe enough to warrant treatment in a hospital." This means a LOT of people simply have bad experiences with dogs and their sometimes nut-job owners. Older people cannot simply outmaneuver your dog.
