The relationship between dogs and humans has changed over the time. A crowd of humans and a group of wolves teamed up. Nobody expected the relationship to change. The "dogs" have changed in a good way not the bad way. All dogs share a common ancestor. Humans slowly started caring for dogs which was an unexpected change. For centuries, the development from wolf to dog occurred over supposedly millennia. One common theory is that the relationship started when some bold wolves became venturing into human camps. They soon protected humans from dangerous animals, of which there were many. A little American started spending hundreds of their wages just for the dogs. The communication between dogs and humans has changed over time because of the changing

    A wolf pack is, at its foundation, simply a family, with the parents (alphas) guiding the activities of the group. Hence, it is easy to believe that dogs are able to bond with human families, especially when the alphas are already parents. The parents view the dog as one of their children, one who remains dependent and will never leave or criticize them (Rogers 1), and in the same manner, the dog views the human parents as if they were his actual parents and as a result, loves and trusts them with his life gladly following them, not once questioning their decisions or actions. For these reasons, humans have found release in the company of dogs because dogs do not judge. By way of example, Sigmund Freud was notably a bad singer and as a result, never sang in public, however he often hummed an aria while petting his dog (Rogers 2). In the presence of dogs, our need to self-censor our words and actions vanishes (Rogers 2). Ultimately, dogs and human beings are able to form such strong emotional bonds through love and

  • Wolf Essay

    Recently, the wolf has had a violent stigma surrounding it and I have always been curious to why. I have always found them fascinating, and I believe part of my fascination is because dogs, or “man’s best friend,” are all descendants of the wolf. This led me to wonder what exactly is the history and relationship between wolves and humans. Unfortunately the research for this paper has shown our history is a sad and violent one for the wolf population. Wolves have always been one of my favorite animals. They are extremely interesting not only because of their proximity to humans but also due to their similarity to humans. Through this research, I realized that wolves are very similar to us as wolf packs, just like human networks of family and friends, work together throughout life to grow and thrive.
