History of Dogs
The most widely accepted view pertaining to the origin of the dog is that they evolved from a squirrel like creature, similar to the one responsible for animals such as the bear and skunk. It is widely believed that thousands of years ago dogs and humans saw each other as fellow hunters, until at some point in time they bonded. Unlike other canine species akin to the wolf, over time man learned how to domesticate dogs as pets and companions. Historians seem to have varying opinions on when this took place. Research has shown that in many great empires and nations throughout the world, dogs were symbolic pets for their owners. Some were gifts with emblematic meaning, while others may have been for show or sport. Whatever the origin, the bond between man and dog has become so strong that now humans and dogs are practically inseparable. It seems as though dogs, after years of being fed and taken care of by humans, have come to respect them as their masters. Likewise, after years of companionship from their beloved dogs, humans have come to respect them in return. It is very unlikely that this bond will ever be broken. Different societies do have different views on whether or not dogs make good pets, even to this day, although the vast majority of the population of the modern world accepts dogs as pets.
