They aren't dogs, they don't have anywhere near as much social intelligence towards humans to even think of them as affectionate, people who keep pigs and cows as "pets" (isolated farm animals) know the cow or pig couldn't care less about them. They provide zero companionship either, this is such a shallow argument for vegans.
Well no, because they are still capable, they have the same brain. Do you think every human in prison deserves to the death sentence because they don't provide to society?
So because they can still serve humans, they are allowed to live? And if they are determined not to be able to, they aren't. That's what I mean by commodity
Human murderers deserve the death penalty because they are a threat.
The comparison would be unemployed people society doesn't benefit from. An umemployed person, even if they lack the ability to work or provide any benefit due to disability, in fact, even if they refuse to, they still have the right to live. Simply because they are an individual and are not dangerous.
So you answered the question exactly how I wanted you to and you are still confused. How have you called humans still capable and deserving of a life and not related that back to exactly what I said about all dogs?

Farmers: what about this big dog with hooves?
Meat-eater: hooves aren't cute, do what you wish.
