Wolfs and humans had similar hunting methods. (wolfs still do oc)
Combined with the wolf's social group structure made them prime candidates for domestication.

More of a cat person myself desu

According to Colin Groves ( of the Australian National University, in Canberra) : "The human-dog relationship amounts to a very long lasting symbiosis. Dogs acted as human's alarm systems, trackers, and hunting aides, garbage disposal facilities, hot water bottles, and children's guardians and playmates. Humans provided dogs with food and security. The relationship was stable over 100,000 years or so, and intensified in the Holocene into mutual domestication. Humans domesticated dogs and dogs domesticated humans."

They're good lads because we made them.
Dogs and modern women are the result of the artificial selection practiced by our ancestors.

>>2130061
Ummm they did not domesticate us.

>>2129559
Wolves stated following early human camps around and picking at what remained of the food, while the humans kept them around because they were a good early warning system for if a predator was somewhere near.

Eventually, some humans got the idea to take wolf pups early in their life to raise them to live beside humans and see them as their family.

Eventually, we learned how to selectively breed them for more desirable traits, though not necessarily the healthiest ones. Almost every type of dog you see that isn't a mutt is the result of extensive inbreeding.

In the western world, people instinctively love dogs. I mean a baby will grab a dog and cuddle it before it's learned anything else. Hell, a dog is pretty much an intrinsic part of the stereotypical western family. Humans are conditioned to take care of dogs.

I can't tell if you're being serious or if you're trolling me.

>>2130347
That's because pet ownership solely for the sake of companionship is something that originated in the West.

>>2130316
Actually it is theorized friendly wolves approached us. Humans had kind of a "Kill every big-ish carnivore" policy

Why does western society venerate dogs while the rest of the world ranges from loving them to treating dogs like shit?

>>2130364

Unless you wanna fund a million dollar plus venture into analyzing human/dog genome affection then what the fuck do you want from us?

All domestic dogs are literally betas.

it certainly didn't also pop up in China or Mesoamerica.
Chiwawas are awesome hunting companions after all

I can't help feeling sad inside when I see a tiny lapdog dressed up in an ugly sweater by some cooing middleaged woman who can't have kids anymore.

It's like, "you used to be a wolf. What happened? What have we done to you?"

>>2130383
Do you seriously think 10,000 years is long enough to change innate behavior for humans?

>>2130393
There's evidence supporting that the Aztecs raised Chilhuahuas to be eaten as food, as did the Chinese

>>2130410
That's why I prefer the large hunting dogs: pointers, labs, retrievers, ridgebacks, etc. Sheepdogs are cool too, but pretty much the only non insane ones have fucked up hips. Honestly there's no point in getting a terrier or something unless you really want to fuck up the moles that have been digging in your garden.

You know that there are some dog breeds that were recorded killing (on camera, not just photos) two wolfs at a time.
I've read that some are supposedly able to take down bears, tho i've never seen evidence.

I suppose I can't judge, I've put down money on cock fights.
But I can say that cocks are a lot less friendly than dogs.

>>2131596
Is cock fighting legal in your country? Philippines right?

>>2130971
There are dog breeds that would fuck up any wolf on the planet, because that is what they were bred for. Dogs are the ultimate tool species.

>>2131607
Yeah, that's where it was. I don't live there, but family is there, and y'know when in rome

>>2131638
I'm jealous to be honest. Wish animal fight got legalized in white countries again too.

>>2131649
If you count Spain as white, then bullfighting is legal.

>>2131649
Well I mean you could always visit the place and do it yourself. The Philippines is actually a pretty nice place, especially for tourists like us. Besides, no one is going to say no when you put down USD on a fight, assuming you're from the states.

>>2131656
Maybe I should visit. It looks like a pretty place anyway.

>>2131726
And, let's face it, if you're white you'll be drowning in pussy.
You don't see the really attractive filipinos in north america, they have no reason to come here because they're pretty set there. But they like white folks all the same, even the mestiza's.
Y'know, if you're into that sort of thing.

I like some purebreds because they are nice to look at.. but breeders want $1,000+ for one puppy. Who the fuck is paying that?

>>2130347
Speaking as someone who's seen babies play with dogs, they are not likely to cuddle a dog when they grab it. They'll grab its hair, and yank it out, because babies are curious monsters and should be kept away from irritable pets.

>>2130410
The same could be said for most western middle class people. We used to be romans and vikings n shiet.
