People care so much about dogs because they can anthropomorphize them and project their feelings of what a perfect human is on them. Look at this thread. Posters have said dogs don't complain, dogs don't lie and all they want is to love and be loved. Those are the qualities those posters want most in another person but attribute them to a dog who can't act in those ways because it's a dog.

Your underestimation of dogs is impressive. Where did you learn about their cognitive and emotional abilities? Church? Science is way past you, man. Not all dogs are created equal, but maybe dog owners see these abilities in their dogs because they're more intimately familiar with said abilities.
