> One of the big surprises for us was that the gains column was significantly longer and more robust than the losses column. Most of the purported gains are matters of freedom, whereas most of the losses are matters of life and death. I don't know how dogs themselves would rank freedom against life if asked about it, but even humans often trade quite a lot of freedom for a hint of food and safety. Nobody has a right to tell other people to risk a much, much higher chance of death in pursuit of someone else's ideal of freedom. When you do it to humans, that's called a cult. I wonder why anyone thinks dogs will be okay with it.
