Dogs are loyal, loving creatures who would genuinely take a bullet for their owners. Intelligent and loyal.
I have no idea why dogs get such negative connotations.
Agree Thry.

Well said Thry...Humans will let you down more than Dogs.....Dogs are part of the family in our household and not just a novelty furry toy.

I have a dog that I think is a wonderful little mate who currently shares my life, and I pray he can be with me for years to come. Crazy as it may seem, I would prefer his company to a number of humans who I sometimes have the misfortune to have to deal with. I don' t think I would ever use the word "dog" as a derogatory term.

That’s true Thry ... and I have just enjoyed watching the footy with my two hounds sharing the couch with me (they prefer wildlife documentaries to the footy).
The negative connotations generally relate to conditions imposed by people and/or medical conditions like mange or rabies.
Interestingly, our native Dingo is always referred to as a wild dog by those who have a vested interest in eradicating yet another native species.

There is a reason Hampson was called "Hammer" and it's not related to how hard he went at the football!
