Jones will say he knows two or more cats that have done the same thing.

Well, cats are pretty far below dogs on the intelligence scale. They also don't emotionally bond in the same degree as dogs.

Well I was going to offer to go get him but that may be a bit to much of a hike.

Don’t you mean sometimes men can live up to be as good as dogs?

Nah. Dogs are pretty much like pandas. Without humans, dogs would go extinct

The scientists claim that unlike cats, dogs have become overly domesticated and dependent on humans and, therefore, can’t think or care for themselves. As a result, while excelling at social tasks, these pampered pets have lost other important problem-solving skills and would have difficulty surviving in the wild, the researchers claim.

Someone dumped a ShitZu at an intersection down the road from our house. I was pulling weeds, and I saw the car pull away and the dog try to follow it.
The dog then returned to the intersection to wait.
Mornings it would go down to the river, swim, dry off and wait for fishermen to share their lunch with it. Then back to the intersection.
Never came up to our house. Always just waited.

After two weeks, one of the fishermen came up to the house to ask about the dog. I told him all I knew. He started feeding it down at the landing and also at the intersection.

After a week, I saw him slow down, ,stop the car, and go and open the door and invite the dog to go with him. The dog chose to go with its new owner. He waved to me as they drove off.

a few do

They also kill 1.7 to 3.4 BILLION wild birds each year in the U.S.

A 2013 study by Scott R. Loss and others of the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service suggested that free-ranging domestic cats (mostly unowned) are the top human-caused threat to wildlife in the United States.

My dog would just poop in front of the hospital entrance and then go about his merry way.

There was a border collie in Quinlan, Texas that someone had dumped by the side of the road. Sat in the same place for a week, obviously expecting her owner to return.

Animal Rescue picked up the dog, which is now adopted.
Dog dumpers can go to hell.

They can kill all the insects and rodents they want to kill.

I have trained my two outdoor turdcats to leave the birds alone. I've had less success on leaving lizards alone.

One sleeps under the bird feeder and the birds don't care any more.

There are a lot of dogs that would be just fine, but yeah, some dogs like miniature schnauzers probably wouldn’t last too well
