History of Pet Dogs
July 3rd 2009 16:01
Personally, I think more people need to be interested in the History of the Domesticated Dog versus the current or future status, because just like people, history for-tells and predicts the future. Well, not really 100% accurate, but at least if more people understood the history of the domesticated dog, more people would understand their actions and behaviors. In general, we would have more educated dog owners
Dogs have been used for herding, guarding, protection, hunting, and home pets for years. They have been bred for these traits, and even now individual dogs that aren't used to herd sheep will still show tendency of herding.
Ancient Egyptians mummified their dogs, and treated them as Gods. There are many civilizations who treated their dogs better than many of the people in that society. Dogs have always been held higher than they are- animals, which is to no wonder as to why we now treat them as children, better than such at times.
