if u specified one of my explanations might be they might be muslim and in islam according to one of their religious texts(forgot which book) its considered a bad thing to have dogs cuz according to that text "Angels dont enter a house which has a dog or a picture" . I said turkey cuz turkey has one of the highest muslim populations in EU .

Thats... well tbf this on me for not elaborating, when people call you a dog it's less on your physical appearance and more a slight on your character. Calling someone a dog could mean a few things like suggesting they are mentally deficient but also saying they're "trained"

because dogs are owned by humans
so when they call you dog, they basically saying they own you aka they are better

oh oh i know this

this was explained to me by someone who tried to say "bitch" is a misogynistic slur

as dogs are owned by humans and thus often seen as a lesser being by said humans
