Hi

But as the human being has evolved, the roles of these pets have been changing and what used to be a hunting companion, a guardian of homes or a companion of the shepherd in the care of livestock has become a mere whim of this overfed and more frivolous society with each passing day.

This is very true social media is filled with videos of how people are abusing their pets with so much make up and making them do so many tricks that could be dangerous.
It all looks so strange and harmful for the poor pets.
