>>4279319Troll aside, dogs are for people who want to rule over other humans, but can't, so they exploit a lesser being.
Your dog was raised to be dependent on you, he's not free, he would normally run around going hunting or do some other dog stuff instead of going for a walk with you.
People who need dogs as a tool like hunting are understandable, but most people raise dogs to be their companion. This is animal cruelty. These dogs can't survive without humans anymore. It's like cutting a birds wings to keep them on the ground.
Every dog owner has a mental illness and is human garbage. They think their dogs love them but these dogs are suffering from the stockholm-syndrome, they are literally hostages kept on a leash.
