Haha - you are in a cage.
Want to be free? I can put you in a plane with a parachute and I can shove you out of a plane at an undisclosed location over a wilderness.
Dogs have been successively bred over many generations - so have we.
richwicks saysThey have a greatly expanded lifespan as a result and companionship, as well as food and access to medical services. Depending on the owner they have a far higher quality of life and in some instances complete freedom but not independence for food or decisions. It's more like a benevolent god / subject situation - but it's not that either, you're not god.
Personally, I would prefer a couple of years of freedom over decades in a cage, no matter how good the food and medical care.
But that's just my personal choice.

I grew up in a tiny hick town in northern NY. People from the city would dump their unwanted pets off in our area.
Last dog my parents took in they found wandering in their backyard (which was extensive) starving. That dog was very grateful to receive food and a safe place to sleep.
richwicks saysEver seen a "free dog"? I've had a few that broke my heart. Freedom can be particularly cruel, they are basically the homeless without the intelligence - or insanity for that matter.
It depends. Some feral dogs adapt pretty good, especially if they form a pack.

This isn't true.
We're all born in a cage, you know this but you want it not to be true. We are under the thumb of a natural hierarchy called "civilization".
I have read a good explanation that the story of Genesis is nothing more than an allegory of people changing from living off from a land of plenty, and converting to agriculturalism - that it was the move from hunter/gatherer society to one of farming. I wonder if it is correct?

Aren't we all. Most people's cages are of their own creation.

I was trying to explain about QVC/Bradford Exchange to a Brit and found this.
Imagine the rage you can induce with this.

My current dog would probably be like that if lost. My previous one would fucking terrorize and/or devour all wildlife in 10 miles radius. =))

My dad used to have a guard dog in Indiana, that was a toughest son of a bitch dog I knew. Our house never got robbed because of that dog.

I can live with that.
Civilization beats the alternative.

I passed some Biden groups with posters and signs saying, "Trump is spreading fake news about Biden" around tri-valley. Made me wish I had one of those diesel antifa fumigators.

The WaPo story got three shares, but in the meantime Tobra's response to WaPo's comment request has gone viral.
