They're not any smarter than pigs and we eat pigs.
They're not even any cuter than pigs tbh.

The only reason we don't eat dogs is because of a historical mutual relationship, which nowadays isn't even relevant anymore. Pigs can also be used for hunting as well.

you seem to have made an argument against eating pigs, rather than one for eating dogs

Dogs arent bred to be particularly suited for consumption like pigs or cows are. And since they have way more uses, resources time and energy devoted to their breeding and raising are best allocated for that range of purposes.

I originally typoed devoted and autocorrect changed it to devoured >_>

There actually is a good reason, which is that people aren't supposed to eat meat. Really it should be framed as "there are only bad reasons we eat pigs"

Not really, no. Studies have shown that not only are dogs uniquely good at reading human expression, and are unusually expressive themselves, but they've actually evolved to tap into the same joint oxytocin response that people get with actual human babies, which is a first as far as science has discovered.

Also dogs have more way more jobs than just emotional support. Pretty sure TC knows that, though. :^)

Because eating living creatures is wrong. Eating dogs would be another step back for humanity.

I've never seen anyone actually back this up with any credible info.

Dogs having a more carnivorous diet than pigs provides at least an economic and environmental justification for choosing to breed pigs for consumption as less overall resources are required to make a pig ready for consumption than a dog.

Of course, going down the environmental justification route typically isn't an ideal one since meat as a whole becomes hard to justify if reducing environmental damage is your goal.

Otherwise I agree that there isn't a real ethical difference between eating dogs or pigs.
