When we do something nice for the dog (feed her, pet her, walk her), her tail-wagging response is reminscent of Sally Field at the Oscars, “Wow! They like me! They REALLY like me!”
Oreo, on the other hand, sees any act of kindness as minimal tribute - enforced by the shock and awe of his fearsome roar. His attitude is more like Caligula or Dick Cheney, “Let them hate us … so long as they fear, and obey.”
