It bugs me somewhat that puppies don't have names for the first several weeks of their lives...

Well, yes--we do socialize kids. Some pet owners seem to lavish the kind of love and affection on pets that, I think, ought to be normally reserved for our species. I think domesticate does mean train in certain contexts, and that definition was probably the norm in the past. But now, I'm not sure what we are doing with pets. I mean we freakin' scoop cat shit out of boxes for them. What is THAT?

Jeez, I don't know. That's my wife's job! I reckon it's better than scooping cat shit of the living room rug. :-)
