I headcanon that the reason Connor says "I like dogs" to Hank, having probably never encountered a dog before, is because someone told him when he was activated "Your name is Connor" and so he android-googled "Connor" and found out it means "lover of hounds." So essentially, what he actually means when he says "I like dogs" is "My name is Connor." Sound familiar? And then he meets an actual dog in the form of Sumo, who is not just any dog but One (1) Whole Hugeass Beast Among Dogs, and he seems very unsure in a "they told me I like these things; do I actually like this? This is a lot of animal. The fish was more manageable!" way. Until he tentatively experiments with petting Sumo once he settles down and is like, "huh, okay, this is a Good Boy and I would commit atrocities for him; obviously they were right. I am Connor." (Like I know it was part of his Human Integration ProgrammingTM to say he liked whatever Hank liked, but the way he spits out that line in particular is an absolute riot if you think about it harder.)
