Can Buddy be Racist & Sexist???? UPDATE #16

[Vela]

who is Buddy? and NO, I don't think dogs can be "racist" or "sexist".. they just may not like a person and remember they cannot see color and they just might not like that person or the dog is just being protective of you.

Dogs can see color....not exactly as we do, and they don't differentiate between red/green, but they do see color.

Mz Logan was raised from birth by a black couple and although she does have some idiosycracies with certain things, happily, so far, likes everyone she meets.

John wasn't aware of her original name, so the other day, called her "Rocky" and she dropped her rawhide, ears went down, tail went between her legs. I tried it a few times and she gets very upset. She must remember something unkind but doesn't relate it to human shades. Hmmm. That works out geat since we live in a very diversified area.

Oddly, I raised Cody from 5 weeks and he hated the color red, or what he conceived as red. He tore his red plaid bed (the only time), grabbed my red sweater, ripped a red jacket. Only time he destroyed anything.

Ya, I think they see in negative or something I herd so they can very well be racist cause they can see the difference. Even if they couldnt see in some colour it a darker skin person would still appear a different shade.
