Dogs, people and individuality

So I've been thinking a little bit, I've came to a certain conclusion; most of the people are comparable to dogs.
[ X ] True
[    ] False
That specially applies to moderately popular teenagers. If one of them puts on a rumor that The Beatles sucks, they all most likely think so, because they lack individuality and a character of their own, which is common among animals that live in packs, isn't it? The irony of the story comes from the fact that they like to think that they're individuals, even though everything they do/like comes from their friends and trends. That is comparable to the actions of dogs, if you ask me. It's kind of like a hive mind-reaction, but I am not sure if that's a good thing, pack hunters tend to survive better than loners, at least looking at the nature / the history of the nature, but if a few "important" individuals of the pack get killed, the whole pack is fucked up, so I don't know if it's a good or a bad thing to be a dog.
