It's not true. Dog morphology is always distinctively that of a dog; also dog behavior. There's no mistaking dogs as anything but dogs. You are allowing yourself to be confused by unimportant differences.

Not only that but humans keep dogs as pets; and cats keep humans as pets.

There are still more physical differences between a Chihuahua and a Great Dane than there are between a chimp and a human. Primate morphology is always distinctively that of a primate, and that includes chimps and humans.

There are similarities and differences. Humans, Chimps, Chihuahuas, and Great Danes all have a head, two forelimbs, two hind limbs, but only humans walk on two legs.

Humans, Chimps, Chihuahuas, and Great Danes all have a head, two forelimbs, two hind limbs, but only humans walk on two legs. Chimps can walk on two legs, and frequently resort to that when they want to carry something. It is not a circus trick. So do Bonobos. What's your point here? We know that different species are not identical. Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison.

Dogs can walk on two legs too. I've seen it. But humans are the only ones that habitually walk on two legs.

Birds as well. Back when I was living on Hilton Head we had a pyracantha growing in front of the window next to the front door of the villa (better protection than burglar alarms). Every year when the berries ripened the Cedar Waxwings descended on the bush and gorged on the fallen fruit until they got so drunk the simply fell over. The first time it we returned to find birds littering the entrance we were worried and called the guard gate fearing someone had put out poison only to be greeted with laughter. Their suggestion was to sweep them off the path and just wait. Sure 'nuff in about thirty minutes a miracle had happened and all the dead birds had flown away.
Except Cliff and Norm who were back at the bar.

Dogs can walk on two legs too. I've seen it. But humans are the only ones that habitually walk on two legs. 1) Chimps routinely do it when they need to do so. So do Bonobos. Those are among the existing animals that are genetically closest to humans.2) You actually said that those other animals do not walk on hind legs. Surely you realize that your admission just puts further holes in what was already a poor argument. Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison.

The fossil record reveals the miserable failure of Darwism's most fundamental prediction - gradualism. Gould stated that the fossil record is characterised two things antithetical to gradualism - sudden appearance and stasis.
Sudden appearance and stasis fit two fundamental predictions of creation. Ain't that interesting?
