Did you ever wonder where the cutest dogs come from? Well, I have.While many other pets abandon their owners and never come back, dogs are different. They are very sweet, loyal, and fuzzy friends that take care of us like we do with them. We usually shower them, exercise them, give them good care, and many other stuff that dogs love to do. They also take care of us in other ways too. When a dog sees danger they bark to keep us warned. They also love to lick our faces and be with us. This is their sign of love and affection towards us. These; are the things that thanks to dogs, we stay safe and receive love. While these dogs have these amazing skills, Where do these dogs come from? It is believed that dogs do come from ancient wolves. …show more content…
There are many theories and facts about this question. "Hundreds of thousands of years ago, humans regarded wolves as threats." This sentence explains their fear of wolves. Wolves back then were known as fierce animals that could attack people and animals. These creatures would gobble up their food and not have any mercy for anyone. Scientist believe that over the years, wolves would be thankful that the humans would give them food. This made some kind of connection between these two. Ever since then these wolves have evolved and became into these radiant pet that we love to spoil.I mean just imagine, how can a wolf really evolve into a dog? It's crazy but they have really evolve into these great pets. That is really amazing.
How have dogs a become part of the family? Well, many years ago, dogs were used to chase fox away and clear up restaurant kitchens of rats. Dogs weren't allowed indoors because they had a lot of fleas and other sickness. At that time, there wasn't enough money to get them good stuff that can take the fleas away. In the 1800's, that changed. People were getting wealthier, and they were able to afford new powerful soaps that would clean fleas and other stuff the dogs had. People started to let the dogs come into their home, and slowly they became very sweet loving pets that we love to
I’ve always felt that animals are the purest spirits in the world. They don’t fake or hide their feelings, and they are the most loyal creatures on Earth and somehow we humans think we’re smarter. I chose this topic about the canine because, some of these canines risk their life’s to protect dog’s best friend.
Dogs are seen as an ‘evolutionary miracle’. This is because, over 100 years, they have the most breeds and changes than any other species. They have changed spectacularly from their ancestors the wolves; they domesticated themselves into dogs and they now carry many different traits. Wolves now have little use for us unlike dogs, for example, retrievers are bred to chase and then bring back
Just as humans have a family tree, so do dogs. Most if not all dogs heritage connects in some way back to the wolf. Then why are dogs domesticated, why are they best friend to man? Any wild animal can be tamed eventually through out the generations and the Chukchi people had learned that trick long ago. They became best friend to the Siberian Husky until someone got in the way, Russia. Russia tried to take over the home of the Chukchi people, Northeaster Asia, but found that the climate was much more dangerous than they though. So instead they forced the Chukchi people to open trade with them. Unknowingly they spread many diseases to the Chukchi people that they had no immunity to, many Chukchi people died. The...
The dog is a unique beast. Loyal and affectionate, if somewhat bizarrely built, today’s dogs are a far cry from the wild wolves from which they emerged. Whether fluffy, naked, cock-eyed, or bow-legged, each dog is an ample prototype of its kind. The very idea that such a cooperative creature could spring forth from such a ruthless predator is astounding by itself. The fact that the multitude of breeds (340, according to the World Canine Organization (Melina, 2014)) could starburst forth from a single point begs investigation. How, indeed, did it come to be that there are so many different breeds of dog?
Using popular belief, you would probably think that dogs have been our companions for thousands and thousands of years. In reality, the question is this: are dogs our companions or are we dog’s companions? Without a doubt, we have evolved dogs, but have dogs evolved us too? Would civilization be around if it weren’t for dogs? That’s the question I leave you with today. People and dogs, or dogs and people. The chicken and the egg.
There are many theories’ that dog got evolved by the grey wolf but current resources say that dogs. The PLoS (is an open access peer-reviewed academic journal published monthly by PLOS Genetics) say that dogs may have not evolved by the grey wolf or least not the grey wolfs that we have living up in our northern forest. One possibility is there may have been other wolf lineages that these dogs diverged from that, then went extinct. But there
...tion, including their initial evolution, their domestication, and the roles they played in human society throughout the ages. It is a relatively new book being published in 2010. Darcy Morey, the author of this book is a zooarchaeologist and focuses his research on the relationship between dogs and humans throughout time. He is a graduate of the University of Tennessee. This book is based on the authors own research and also refers to the information gathered by many other scientists, all of which are listed in the reference section of the book. As mentioned this book contains the results of research from many scientists and is beneficial for learning both general and more scientific knowledge on the subject. I would recommend it to anybody who is conduction a research on the topic. This book was found using I-Share using the search term the domestication of dogs.
However, the hunters would not keep all of the wolves that grew up from the cubs they had. Keeping a wolf that became overly aggressive towards them, or if it had little practical use, would have been both pointless and dangerous to their group. They most likely would have killed those types of wolves or left them behind to fend for themselves. The hunters would have chosen semi-tame wolves and those with the most desirable traits and abilities and bred the two together, repeating the process until what resembled a dog today. The first bones found which ...
Have dogs always been cute and cuddly? Actually, they have not always been how they are today. All dogs used to be big bad wolves. Scientist has found that all dogs have descended from the grey wolf. They converted into dogs because the wolves came closer and closer to humans. It took a very long time for the wolves to alter to cute cuddly dogs. After the wolves had pups, the pups grew up around humans and grew closer and less ferocious to humans, so the pups were more comfortable with people and that we could hunt with them and use them as pets later. Therefore, the relationship between dogs and humans has changed tremendously over time.
Thesis Statement: While most owners are aware of the amount of joy and laughter dogs bring to them and their family, they are unaware that their dogs love them unconditionally and can help them have better lives
The video “Dogs and More Dogs” presents one of the most perplexing questions in evolutionary biology: how did the diversity of dogs evolve from a relatively homogeneous population of wolves. Anthropological data suggests that dogs came into existence some fifteen thousand years ago. In terms of the history of earth and the majority of the organisms that inhibit it, dogs are still very young. It is thus very remarkable that one species (wolves), which must have looked somewhat alike, could have given rise to the huge differences we see between the Chihuahua and the Golden Retriever.
... and faithfulness that cannot be found from any other source. Even the most hardened of hearts can be touched by a cold wet nose or a comforting snuggle. Pets seem to be able to recognize and adapt to many of the conditions placed on them in our human environment. They can provide the sense of companionship, and love that is lacking in regular human relationships.
The study author, Michelle Lampe from the Radboud University in Nijmegen, The Netherlands, said in a statement, "It cannot be excluded, however, that the differences can be explained by the fact that wolves are more persistent to explore objects than dogs. Dogs are conditioned to receive food from us, whereas wolves have to find food themselves in nature." She states that dogs are used to owners for things like food. Huskies don't seem to have a high intelligence ranking of the dogs because they are extremely independent. They rule themselves and because of this many people think huskies are untrainable or stupid Huskies learn on their own when it suits them. they are very stubborn. They are incredibly smart...just not dependent on owners like some domesticated breeds. This makes them more like wolves because they go out and explore for
Dogs are wonderful creatures. They are loyal, dependable companions if given the opportunity. In recent years I have come to the opinion that we could learn something from these animals. We should also take a look at the manner in which they are being treated. Abandonment, irresponsible breeding, and neglect are only some of the ways that humans are failing the canine species.
Nowadays, people are busy in their daily life and having a lot of stress from their working area.
