Yes but isn't it a bit weird to be implying your customers are dogs?

Our customers are morons for using our products and dogs are personable but pretty stupid so yea, makes a lot of sense.
Idk some people love dogs a lot. Maybe more than people!
The average person generally seems less than neutral to see me.

Many people aren’t just openly hostile, they make a point to immediately let you know they aren’t here to help, they’re here to make everyone’s life less pleasant.

With people, there are many scenarios where if you’re out of line, disagree, that’s it. You’re done. They’ll never ever consider you worth any reasonable sort of treatment.

Dogs, by comparison, are angels.

Metaphor confuses, literally.
No. The idea is until it receives the chef’s kiss, it’s dog food.
I think in the analogy that we're the dogs.
