Dogs (Canis familiaris) evaluate humans on the basis of direct experiences only.

Reputation formation is a key component in the social interactions of many animal species. An evaluation of reputation is drawn from two principal sources: direct experience of an individual and indirect experience from observing that individual interacting with a third party.
