We are sane and intelligent people (atleast on paper). A scientific mind always queries and questions. Srila Prabhupada has presented the entire doctrine of Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatham in the most scientific form. If you are sane and scientific why would you think of something like that? Are you so enlightened that you can learn something from the dog. Also you should note that those who learnt from plants, creepers,ants were not ordinary. They were embodiments of the Supreme Lord Himself. Hence this is also the cheating aspect. The Lord Himself appeared as Buddha and Dattatreya as a cheating personality!! So you should be sane and stick to regular philosophy and not try to engineer new ways!!!
A true seeker learns from even a prostitute, lessons on spirituality. Have you heard the story of the prostitute Pingla in the Srimad Bhagavatam, aasha hi paramam dukham....? Then what to speak of dog. Even karmis learn loyalty from dog. Gyaanis learn the limit of their senses from dog - human's range for hearing is lesser than dogs....
Is this what you were looking for or something else?
