    But what the dog is doing is it is generalising. That is a beginner’s logical fallacy. It is suggesting that just because somebody else in a group that it perceives you to be in did something unjust, you carry responsibility for that injustice as well. Which does not hold. It is like blaming a German for the Holocaust. So the dog’s argument is cunning, but inherently flawed.
