the best consciousness test is observing a creature perform a mirror test to some other kind of creature.
clearly dogs are mirror testing grass somehow, and making sure they don't start growing brains, either by eating some, or breaking the grass leaves by rubbing their back in the grass.
when they roll in other dogs faeces, they are performing a mirror test on their owner..
