Here is an interesting animated video on the evolution of dogs.
Apparently all dogs have evolved from the wolf, I can see a similarity between the wolf and German Shepherd but a wolf and a Dachshund
How humans created dogs, apparently

I have three dogs. Their awesome in their own ways. Each dog I've had in my lifetime had distinct personalities even in the same breed.
Like you, not sure how a Dachshund came to be from a wolf, omg!

Or a Jack Russel, or a Pekingese, or a pug for that matter. Not had a dog as an adult but have been associated with a few, I do like Lab/Retrievers. Hopeless guard dogs but guess a burglar hears a bark and don't see the dog, if a burglar knew it was a Lab he'd rob he place anyway and play with the dog
May 27, 2026 4:25 PM PDTAll of those dogs are nice that you mentioned. We would love to have a large guard dog again someday. We had a wonderful Chow Chow, many years ago but he was too much of a guard dog. I would also fear for my dog's life, if my house was robbed.
Isn't there a video of a burglar robbing someone's stuff out of the garage and ended up petting the dog outside?
