  • Guess I’m going against the grain here, but in my experiences, no not really.

    At least here in Aus I’ve never noticed any correlation between animal friendliness and religion. My family for example is very religious (I’m not), and quite conservative (I’m definitely not lol), but they care for animals better than they care for other people.

    What I have noticed is more fear from other cultures. For example, I have an Indian neighbour who never grew up around dogs, especially big dogs. When I first picked up my German Shepherd as an 8 week old pup, they were scared shitless of him! Scared of a cute little fur ball, with paws too big for his body just flailing around bumping into things, literally one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen!

    Not dismissing the question on religion being linked to animal friendliness, but maybe region and cultural factors are also playing a role here?
