Dogs: what kind of animals are they?
The dog is the first animal in the world that was tamed by man. At first she served as an assistant during the hunt, and a little later she began to perform guard functions. Evidence of this exists, and the oldest dates back to the 22nd millennium BC - it was a simple paw print of an animal. Today there are about several thousand varieties of dogs, including funny breeds. Dogs differ from each other in appearance, cost, size and, most importantly, character.
