Meaningful difference in the goal of upbringing

There is a considerable difference in the goal to bringing up people and animals! The method can sometimes be the same but the goal should never be questioned; and understanding of this varies with the civilization and cultural background. In a democracy, it must be clear that all individuals is in the center, to be individually, in order to operate satisfactorily in a flock. In other social forms there are completely different attributes.

In these notes, we have chosen to focus on animal upbringing and in this case the dog. The dog is born with the bitch as the pack leader. In civilized countries the role is changing of pack leader in the human assumes the responsibility for the dog. An upbringing to adapt to his role in the pack is made with varying results. The dog adapted to follow the leader, unlike human democracy where we try to bring each individual responsible person. We have also built up a form of society to support this form of education. The Human's goal is to as independent individuals to take personal responsibility for independent life. The civilized dog's goal is to be dependent on their leader. To be able to live peacefully in society puts people up different rules for themselves and their surroundings. In a democracy, the Human is responsible for the dog's rules and rights;

The dog's rights

Right to understanding and management

The right to food and water

Allow me to always have fresh water and get regular meals. It is a condition that I should feel good.

You are my leader and my protector. Expose me not to risk. Protect me against anything that is dangerous and frightening. Do not allow anyone to force himself on me. Do not allow children to play with me unattended.

The right to exercise

I need to exercise a few hours each day to feel good.

Right not to be beaten

An aggressive action from you makes me afraid and uncertain.

Entitled to kind treatment

The right to companionship

I'm a pack animal, and companionship is important to me. You must leave me; let it not be more than the total five hours in a day.
