   Maybe Keren Aronoff Masser (credited for video below) or Kath Outerson (presumably for the animals, they aren’t clear)

   We cannot know for certain that anybody else is a conscious person and not a philosophical zombie. I assume they are because I am and they appear to be the same as me. I also assume everybody else does the same. It is difficult to not to perceive the dog in #3 any differently.

   Concepts such as human action must apply to dogs as well. Obviously not human, but action.

   I am not sure where that leaves von Mises.

   It is not Yorkshire, it is Devon.

   It is from an ITV program “The Secret Life of Dogs”. The Spaniel is called Jess and she does (or did) her milk round every morning. A cocker spaniel Lily was in training to take over. The program aired originally in 2013.

   A fuller clip.

   An aside on social media and privacy. I assume the suggested videos that appear at the end of the clip I posted are tailored to me, given that I am fairly fond of SNL, debates and Dawkins. Assuming everyone else sees the same suggested videos after the clip ends, I am advertising my preferences to everyone, to some extent. I hope you don’t mind, but I am posting the link again just to see what suggested videos come up this time.

   @7. I checked out the suggested videos I got and they were related to my own viewing history
