    Dogs served in war at least as much as horses, and are currently doing so in larger numbers.

        Was expecting the creepy spider dog. This looks like Eric Cartman’s dog in the future.

    The horses only reward is to be the animal most frequently farted on by humans.

      It’s a mainly with predators that we have an easier time toilet training them. Evolution has killed off those that shat in their own caves because of diseases and bringing food back to a contaminated den will in turn contaminate the food. Whereas horses and most other herbivores live out in the open, move around more and travel long distances to graze.

    I could be wrong about this but I’m fairly sure dogs have been with man for A LOT longer. Like 40,000 years ago, and I think, just from a quick Google, horses are like 4000 years…

    One side of the war loves them, but I’m sure the other side doesn’t have nearly as high of an opinion.

    Horses are also tasty. Dogs apparently are not.

      Chihuahuas only exist because the Aztecs thought dogs were tasty.
