If so, you must read this book. In it Vicki Hearne asserts that animals that interact with humans are more intelligent than we assume. In fact, they are capable of developing an understanding of "the good", a moral code that influences their motives and actions.

She quickly discovered the factors that contributed to Bandit’s behavior and set about releasing the essentially “good dog”.
