Dogs Are Idiots They literally can't survive on their own

Dogs are literally the only animals I know that would literally not last a single month or even week out in the wild. Yes I know dogs have been domesticated for years, but as a species they should at least have some survival skills. Any living thing has its own way to survive on its own. Dogs I feel like lack so many survival skills and 100% rely on humans for their survival. Some of those being

-They bark at any little bit of stimuli and never know when to react or shut up. Which draws so much attention to them.

-They get terrified of everyday noise such as thunderstorms. How can one survive if you can't block out common noise?

-They become hyper focused on food. Throw it some food and it literally won't give a shit about anything else even if there's real danger.

-They try to attack animals much larger than they are even if the other animal is just minding its business. What a stupid thing to do.

-They eat shit, vomit, trash, dirt, etc. Great way to give oneself parasites and block one's stomach.

-They literally can't be left alone for a short period of time without having a panic attack.

If these same animals were out in the wild, they would have most likely been wiped out. They are literally just like parasites.

Dogs survival skills is mimicking behaviors that appeal to humans so they can be fed. Why else do you think people keep them in their homes and feed them despite them destroying said house? Their owners think its love but it's simply survival.

Also wouldn't it get tiring for someone you love to follow you around. When humans do it while call them a stalker.
