If you think taking their nuts is wrong, then you should be argue not to take their nuts."We take their nuts so we should add rape on top of that" isn't a good argument.
Hypocrisy is a relevant topic because laws are, in large part, based upon precedent.

No, they don't know what they're doing. That is why they are humping your leg and not reaching for your genitals. They are executing an evolutionary script without any understanding of it whatsoever.You're also inadvertently highlighting a hugely significant power difference. The fact that you own the pet says an awful lot bro. That's not more reason **** it. It's less reason to. Additionally, you're bringing up the issue of animals rights here, and yes, it is in fact illegal to **** your dog in most states. They don't share all rights in common with humans, but they do share the right not to be raped by humans...
On the breeding point, again, different issue. Issue B being possibly wrong doesn't somehow make Issue A correct.
They know they're gratifying themselves sexually and that they really WANT to do it. They're not picky about how they get that release, which is why it shouldn't be an issue.
If you're going to get hung up on current legalities, you should stop throwing the word "rape" around because it doesn't apply to animals in a legal sense. Even if you get caught f*cking an animal in the ass that's "screaming" and trying to get away, you don't get charged with rape even if bestiality is a crime.
This discussion isn't about what IS currently recognized by the law, it's about why the current standard is what it is. Ergo, if there is a hypocritical standard at play in regards to issues A and B, that standard is relevant to the discussion as to whether or not Issue A should be considered a big deal. The question in play is "Why shouldn't I let my dog bang me" and the only real reasons are "Because it's against the law in most places", "Religion", and "It's gross". And since there's supposed to be separation of church and state and we don't outlaw stuff just because of the subjective opinion of "grossness", it shouldn't be a crime or even anyone else's business since "consent" from animals is never otherwise considered to be an issue in our legal system. The theoretical animal we're talking about isn't being physically hurt, neglected, or "shamed". It's not really suffering in any way and is actually doing something that it wants to do... making a big fuss about it is ridiculous.
