• Archeologists tell us that dogs, descended from wolves over 10,000 years ago, were the first animals to be
domesticated by humans. Like their feline cousins, dogs are social animals, which might explain why they
have had such a close relationship with humans for so long.
• Throughout history, dozens of dog breeds developed in different parts of the world. Each breed had
different characteristics, so it was trained for a specific use. One way that human beings have used dogs is
for hunting Dogs in general have a much better sense of smell Than humans. For that reason, they are
good hunters.
• Three species classified as herding Dogs are the golden retriever, the Labrador retriever, and the beagle.
• A second group of dogs helped farmers control the movements of large numbers of cattle or sheep. A
group of cattle or sheep is called a herd, and these dogs are known as herding dogs. They are intelligent,
energetic, and hardworking. Two breeds that belong to this category are the Border collie and the
German shepherd.
• In addition to hunting dogs (also known as sporting dogs) and herding dogs, there are five other canine
classifications: hounds, toy dogs, working dogs, terriers, and non-sporting dogs.
