Pet: Dog
I am interested in finding a connection with an animal outside of the "owner and pet" category. I might explores issues of 'when does an animal become a pet' and 'how can an untamed animal retain its title of 'wild', when in collaboration with a human.' Is it possible to look past the 'human vs animal' hierarchy?
