Why is it that nearly EVERYONE would find the dead dog more disturbing than the dead human?

If the dog is rabid it's through no fault of its own, you didn't explain the humans story...but one would assume he acted in a more malicious and/or selfish manner.
That, and I personally prefer most animals to the majority of humans out there...not big on conversation, but soothing company to me. My personal feelings have had a HUGE difference in scale between the different animals I've owned and/or encountered.

No matter how much cash I ever had, this would strike me as stupid. My cat is now on a specific vetinary prescribed diet, which he actually needs to keep certain chemicals balanced, to avoid the recurrence of a potentially life threatening condition that I paid out the nose to fix. Had I any choice in the matter, I'd do what I always have, and make the food for him myself. Not really a spoiling thing, I just figure that the dietary values of what I'd prepare fot animals would be much greater. The rats I have get fresh vegetables, a seed bell here and there, chicken or meat once a week, bread, and a variable range of other things, always fresh unprocessed food, and occasional human leftovers, which in this house is usually pretty good stuff. "we" treat rats just fine.
S'just how we do things here.
But yeah...I'd have the same problems here with the gourmet doggy bakeries. I'm not some paris hilton fuckhead, that probably has something to do with it.
