People have been keeping dogs as pets for over 15,000 years. There are over 400 breeds of dogs. All dogs are believed to have evolved from wolves. Each breed has specific traits, yet some basic traits are common across all breeds.
Certain physical characteristics of dogs make them superior to humans. Dogs have a very sharp sense of smell. They can hear high-frequency sounds that humans cannot. They can even see clearly in the dark.
Dogs are usually athletic and curious by nature. They are social creatures and enjoy playing with other dogs and animals, as well as humans. Dogs possess a high level of intelligence. Research has shown that dogs can learn different words and their associations.
All these abilities make dogs wonderful pets. They are loyal companions, protectors, and helpers. They are very affectionate and kind. Although they cannot speak like humans, the lack of speech is not a barrier for them to communicate their wishes. They communicate through whines, groans, yelps, barks, howls, and whimpers. They also use their tail, limbs, and facial expressions to communicate.
Spending time with dogs will help you identify their needs. Dogs react to tone and not to language. Thus, the tone in which you communicate with a dog is more important than the language. Pet dogs are also fiercely protective about their family. There have been several instances where a pet dog's intelligence and courage has helped save the lives of its owners.
These intelligent animals can also work as assistants. If trained well, dogs can help the blind, deaf, and differently abled to become more independent. Because of their acute sense of smell, some dog breeds can be trained to help law-enforcement officers. Dogs can detect explosives and drugs. They can also help find people in search-and-rescue operations.
