Enzo has done fantastic. Dogs can't be *on* all the time. Otherwise we would show robot dogs. :)

can dogs give consent if they want to take part in dog shows or similiar things? if yes, would you stop doing that when a dog would say "no, I don´t want that?" just asking because I´m interested how you see such things. dogs are living beings and not machines and in my opinion it´s not that easy when it comes to things like "make money with them" or own motivation.

legally it´s easy, because dogs and other "not-humans" count as things and nearly no rights. at least in germany and I think in most other countries too. I dislike how many people treat their pets as their property or slaves and not as living beings. but I´m sure you know how to treat pets well and you have only good intentions.
