According to the 2019-2020 National Pet Owners Survey conducted by the American Pet Products Association (APPA), sixty-seven percent of U.S. households, or about 85 million families, own a pet. 63.4 millions of them owns at least one dog, while number of households who own a cat(s) is 1.5 times less. The situation in the rest of the world is not much different, dogs are as popular as cats (if not more popular). So why do keyboards have a bunch of individual cat emojis for expressing different emotions and only a few completely ordinary, unremarkable dog emoji?
To solve this problem, we demand the addition of dog emoji expressing joy, sadness, surprise, and etc. This will be the first step towards eliminating species discrimination on the Internet. Share this petition if you want to achieve equality between our little friends!
