Your guess is as good as mine...However, I do see my German Shepherd as a higher life form, than some people I've run into.
Quote from Wak (an alien):
Look, I know I must look weird to you but how do you think you look to me? Listen, I watched four episodes of "Lassie" before I figured out why the little hairy kid never spoke. I mean, he rolled over, sure, he did that fine but, I don't think he deserved a series for that.
than some people I have run into ... WHAT?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
