Abstract

In this paper we try to clarify the meaning of “logical animals” by examining if dogs can also be considered logical animals. An upside question of “Are dogs logical animals?” is: “Are human beings the only rational animals?”. It is one thing to claim that human beings are logical animals, but another thing is to super claim that human beings are the only logical animals. There are also some related questions, if we consider the semantic cloud surrounding logical, in particular: “Are dogs intelligent?”. A basis for analysis is the so-called forking argument.
