    dogs life is worth no more or less than a pig or a cow…

    Pigs and cows are quite different from dogs in a few ways. Dogs have been bred for various roles, like being our friends, helpers, or protectors, while pigs and cows have been raised mainly for food like meat.

    Biologically, dogs have different diets; they can eat meat or plants, while pigs and cows mostly eat plants. Also, our relationship with dogs is often more personal—they’re often our companions and part of the family. On the other hand, pigs and cows have traditionally been seen as animals we raise for food, so our connection with them is more about using them as a source of meat rather than companionship.
