No one has any facts when it comes to things like this. Some would argue that dogs are just reacting on pack instinct and positive or negative reinforcement and don't really have feelings. Its just a bunch of people who think what they think. Oh well.

I love my reptiles even though they don't love me back, I don't need them to, I've done it with girlfriends why not with animals.
I don't think they're eating machines...I mean they poop and bump ball python uglies as well. Let's give credit where credit is due.

In think some reptiles have more definitive personalities and signs of real intelligence. Varanids and heloderms for example.
