What? You thought dogs were lame! Dogs are very interesting. They have been around for thousands of years, and they have become a man's best friends. They are very friendly, and they love to play. However, it was not always that way! In the past, dogs were known as wolves. Wolves were known as animals that would hurt or kill something as prey. Thanks to humans and their relationship to these animals things have changed. In the past, dogs were known as wolves . Wolves were used as a guardian for many humans. Wolves were also used to take medicines to people all over the states. "In 1925, Balto became a hero for delivering medicine to sick children in Alaska", as the author says in the passage. Also wolves were known for helping
Dogs were not always how they are today. Almost 35,000 years ago, they were wolves. Humans saw most wolves as a threat. Even though they saw each other as enemies, there was a point where they helped each other. This is what helped them evolve. It all started when wolves went to human camps to devour some scraps of food. Because of this, the wolves were healthy and had many pups. The pups inherited the parents' habit of snacking on leftovers. This cycle repeated over and over. Wolves were willing to get closer to people. Humans soon realized that wolves make very good guards because they protected the humans from many dangerous animals. As a result, wolves living near the humans started to change.
Dogs are the closest creature to man. Sure they are considered as best friend by some. Compared to others, they show an attitude of a friend. They stay beside you no matter what. They also have this sacrificial attitude for their owners. Their being playful and sweet is also remarkable, to the extent that you find yourself longing for them.
Did you know that there is about 70-80 million dogs as pets in the U.S alone almost 50% of all homes have a dog in them as a pet. Many different people like different kinds of dog short, tall, hairy and many more. But most people choose a dog based on something more crucial, such as breed, personality traits, and color.
The domestic dog has to be one of the most unique animals that the human had ever bred. All dogs were formed differently and for separate reasons; whether it be for their looks or for their personal attributes, the dog has been evolved around humans and yet many breeds were created by humans themselves. I also believe that having a dog is a necessity to having a balanced life, just how Cesar Millan was quoted on the Brainy Quote web page “The dog can only become what's in your bubble. The dog is imitating the energy that is in your bubble. You are the source, the feast of energy. If you feel anxious, the dog becomes anxious with you. If you become nervous, the dog wakes up nervous with you”. Your dog runs off of your actions and emotions
Herding dogs go back as far as Bible times. These early dogs were used to keep livestock from
Have you ever had a dog? Do you know where dogs came from? Well, did you know that a million of years ago dogs did not exist. Back, then the dogs were wolves that disliked people. The relationship between dogs and humans has changed over time because over thousands of years ago, the wolves evolved to dogs and the dogs soon became part of human families. That is why these days people want to have a dog as a pet.
It was a cool winter evening at my house in Leedey Oklahoma. I was so excited to get home because we got to open an early Christmas present. We got home then went into the livingroom to find a box in the middle of the room. We all gathered around the box then she said we could open it. I reached down and opened it to find the most adorable little black and white puppy sleeping in the box. It was love at first sight.
Back then, the wolf-like dogs would have been used for hunting thanks to their amazing hearing and excellent smell. These traits would help the hunters tremendously. The hunters also used them as guard dogs for their livestock. Also, if the hunters were ever attacked by an enemy, the wolf-like dogs would have come in very handy as another warrior on the battle field since wolves are faster and stronger than humans. Having a loyal animal is useful in many ways when the world used to be wild and untamed. Plus, the lack of technology in the past would make it seem that a tamed animal would equal that of a machine.
Many will say the role of the dog has changed within the past fifty years, but has it? The answer is yes. Although there are still many similarities such as keeping a dog as a companion, buying a purebred, and veterinary care, but time has created astounding differences. Back in the 1960’s Dr. Maurice Eastridge and his family owned a purebred border collie and various mutts. The border collie had the life of a modern dog, filled with table scraps and kibble, and of course lots of love. This seemed common even back then. The real zinger is the life of the various owned mutts Dr. Eastridge owned compared to other interviewees of that time, Jim Creely and Debbie Meadow. Dr. Eastridge’s mutts were strictly left outside and not allowed inside,
The German Shepherd is not only one of the world's most popular companion dogs, but also probably the most widely used breed for service work. The development of the German Shepherd Dog, along with a number of existing breeds, helped pioneer the modern use of dogs for service and community work that we can see today. For a breed of dog that has only been officially recognised for just over 100 years, it has made an outstanding contribution to mankind worldwide.
The dog, also know as “man’s best friend” or more scientifically, Cannis lupus familiaris, has been just that for 130,000 years. The dog is a descendant of the gray wolf, who lives in a much different habitat and leads a much different lifestyle than our domestic dogs. The anatomy and physiology of the dog can vary greatly among its different breeds but generally speaking the dog anatomy and physiology follow similar blueprints no matter what.
There are several theories on how the evolution from wolf to dog came about. One theory is that the human environment attracted wolves. Wolves started following people around to take advantage of food scraps that were left behind. Eventually, wolves lost fear of people, and people lost fear of wolves. The benefits of this new relationship were not just one way. Wolves also helped humans by sniffing out prey and helping them hunt. Success likely meant the humans would share their food with wolves. This is a very popular theory, but it has been disputed. Archeological digs show that the early dogs were not eating the same mammoth meat that the humans were eating. Instead, their main diet consisted mostly of less popular human meat such as reindeer. The prehistoric dogs also had many broken teeth and severe facial wounds. Although these injuries could be from fighting with other dogs, many scientists believe the dogs had been beaten with sticks, leading many to assume the relationship between man and prehistoric dog was not as companionable as the theory would suggest.
What? You don't think the history of dogs is interesting. You would not like to live on earth about 35,000 years ago. Large sheets of ice covered much of Europe, Asia, and the Americas. People lived in caves or in huts made up of animal's bones. They hunted reindeer using stones and sticks. Danger was found everywhere you went, and diseases with no cures, saber toothed tigers with 11 inch fangs elephant-like mastodons with tusks as long as shaped as swords. Keep in mind that this was only during the horrific times known as the Ice Age- that was how the relationship between dogs and humans has changed over time because of the altar of dogs to get along with humans.
Eukaryotes come in two grades of organization: single-celled (protists) and multicellular (plants, animals, and fungi). The world today is full of complex multicellular plants and animals: how, why, and when did they evolve from protists?
Type of study: the authors do not definitely mention to the type of study. However, based on the information, methods, data, and procedures, it can be concluded that the study was an analytical and experimental clinical trail. They conducted the study on sixteen dogs.
