Dogs are loyal.

No company ever had a loyal cat mascot.
"Every position must be held to the last man: there must be no retirement. With our backs to the wall and believing in the justice of our cause, each one of us must fight on to the end."

Earl Douglas Haig, Order to the British Army, 12 April 1918

So death, the most terrifying of ills, is nothing to us, since so long as we exist, death is not with us; but when death comes, then we do not exist. It does not then concern either the living or the dead, since the former it is not, and the latter are no more.

Epicurus Letter to Menoeceus

dogs aren't loyal

they're machines bred into submissive states wherein ALL they want to do is please you and they'll go out of their way to do so, including attacking intruders and the like

They ignore more because they're dumb.

no

it's because they're not wired to please like dogs are

dogs are honestly dumb and are a far cry from what they used to look like socially as wolves

I do believe dogs are smarter than cats are. There are some fairly intelligent cats though, but for the most part they are in general fairly stupid.

I had the opportunity to observe several living together too: 3 dogs & 3 cats use to live at my house all at the same time. The dogs learned to eventually leave the cats alone even when they kept trying to pick fights with them.

The cats just wouldn't stop trying to get on the dogs bad side. They were big dogs too, I think that's fairly stupid behavior to continue to try to pick a fight with someone far bigger than you with more deadly weapons that's doing their best to leave you alone.

It's not like the cats don't understand this either because if the dog does try to fight back which they did to begin with the cats would bolt and hide. So they knew they couldn't win and yet they still tried picking fights with them.
