You’d have to first prove to me that a dog isn’t at “the same stage of consciousness” as a human (whatever that means).

To really do that, you need to get a half-decent definition of consciousness. Finding one which people generally agree on is the real hard problem of talking about consciousness.

Too many people treat it like some sort of “soul” instead of the opposite of being unconscious.
