“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner

The Federalist Papers, No. 15:

This makes sense to me. When you come from an agricultural society cows take a long time to grow up and produce so many goods that eating them doesn't make sense. Its like eating your tractor. On the other hand, dogs are born in litters, grow up quickly, and do very little hard labor and produce nothing else besides. Makes sense you would eat them before you would eat your cow.
In any case, eating neither is more moral or less immoral.
Quotes from old Paul Newman movie called Hombre:
Audra Favor: I can't imagine eating a dog and not thinking anything of it.
John Russell: You ever been hungry, lady? Not just ready for supper. Hungry enough so that your belly swells?
Audra Favor: I wouldn't care how hungry I got. I know I wouldn't eat one of those camp dogs.
John Russell: You'd eat it. You'd fight for the bones, too.
Audra Favor: Have you ever eaten a dog, Mr. Russell?
John Russell: Eaten one and lived like one.
Audra Favor: Dear me.
