Your analogy is weak. The things you asked are not like a dog, they are inanimate objects that will do absolutely nothing unless someone picks them up and does something with them, either foolhardy or nefarious.
Dogs are very different and they play by their own rules, whether we understand them or not. We tend to think of them as four-legged humans, perhaps four-legged kids, and that's not at all how they behave. Dogs are trainable, to a point, but they never will deviate completely from how they are genetically programmed. Their behavior is entirely predictable if you understand how they think and they tend to communicate quite a bit of information if you are knowledgeable enough to read it.
I will stand by my statement that probably 99% of owners do not have a good understanding of dog psychology and behavior.
