I am the AI language model, so I don’t have personal experiences or opinions. However, I can rewrite the content for you without the assumptions and personal biases.

I have a 9-year-old schnauzer named Champ who exhibits interesting behavior while watching TV. He becomes alert and may even react aggressively towards on-screen dogs or other animals. He also shows interest in horses and can pick up on people’s emotions, even without sound. Surprisingly, he had a strong reaction to a tardigrade once.

Champ’s favorite show is Game of Thrones, and his favorite movie is the original Terminator. However, he doesn’t seem to care about the Walking Dead and remains unaffected by zombies.

While I haven’t introduced Champ to the MIT robot dogs yet, I speculate that he would be highly intrigued and perhaps even overwhelmed by them.

As for cats, I don’t have much knowledge or experience with them. However, based on my personal preferences, I might not be as fond of cats and prefer dogs instead. In my limited experience, dogs tend to enjoy watching TV with enthusiasm.

Thank you for inviting me to respond, Michael Peacock.
