Can it be true that Wolves have evolved to dogs a long time ago?

Avatar of Bonsai_Dragon

No. We domesticated wolves then crossbred them to suit our needs and later preferences.Practically every breed of dog has wolf ancestors.

Avatar of GM_chess_player

Yeah,i guess so.

Any canine can reproduce with another canine.... I don't know if canines can reproduce with vulpines (foxes)...
Canine mating examples:
A dingo can mate with a timber wolf; a coyote can mate with a dingo....and a dog can mate with a dingo and so on and so on....
The dog family has great versatility....

It's like a cycle.

For some reason, two species of jackal have become locked out of the cycle....
And foxes can't breed with K9s....
Wikipedia says so...
Interesting topic....:)

We selectively bred dogs from wolf's. both are still canines. Your comparison is whacked.

What did we breed the wolf with to get a dog if dogs weren't invented yet? They evolved and got more friendly as it helped them get food from us. 

I already said "Selective breeding" Google it.

 The dachshund were bred to hunt badgers and other burrow dwelling animals.

Badgers are killers and a weiner dog is only a weiner dog.

No, the duschun is a fierce canine, bred to be able to go into a badgers burrow after it. German shepards are loyal kind leader dogs for the blind, they are also the canine killer of choice for the military and the police.

It's to late they are labeled as Weiner Dogs with no Badgers to sniff out.
