  Does it? I’ve just taken it to mean enslavement. Every definition I can find lines up with pet ownership like a carbon copy.

    I guess there are working breeds (hunting/herding/pest removal) so you’re right in a way.

    Personally, I view it as a symbiotic relationship. To each their own.

      Oh, I didn’t realize it was symbiotic. When do they take you for your walk and let you eat?

        Both organisms in a symbiotic relationship can get different things from the relationship

        When I see posts like this though, where a pet like a dog is put in a cage instead of being allowed free roam at least of the house, it makes me very sad.
