What does that have to do with anything? Being a bad pet owner doesn't make you a non-pet-owner.

Not always, but it certainly can. Many animal control departments consider leaving a dog outside 24/7 to be neglect/cruelty and will take that dog from you.

Funny that our standards for animal safety are higher than those for humans.

We only have a standard for animals because humans are deemed their stewards. US citizens are their own stewards and most would cry foul if there was some standard that governed what weather they were allowed to go out in and/or for how long.
