Your dog was the first domesticated species and has been selectively bred over millennia for various behaviors, sensory capabilities, and physical attributes.

Their long relationship with humans has led dogs to be distinctively attuned to real human behavior and they're able to thrive on the starch-rich diet that would be limited for other canid kinds. Dogs vary in form widely, size and colours. Dogs perform many roles for people, such as hunting, herding, pulling loads, protection, assisting police and military, companionship and, more recently, aiding handicapped individuals. This impact on human modern culture has given them the sobriquet "man's closest friend".

The term "domestic dog" is normally used for both domesticated and feral kinds. The English expression dog comes from Middle English dogge, from Old British docga, a "powerful dog". The term may are based on Proto-Germanic *dukk?n, represented in Old English finger-docce ("finger-muscle"). The term also shows the familiar petname diminutive -ga also seen in frogga "frog", picga "pig", stagga "stag", wicga "beetle, worm", amongst others. The term dog may finally derive from the earliest layer of Proto-Indo-European vocabulary.In 14th-century Britain, hound (from Old English: hund) was the overall word for any home canines, and dog referred to a subtype of hound, a combined group like the mastiff. It really is believed this "dog" type was so common, it eventually became the prototype of the category "hound". With the 16th century, dog had become the general phrase, and hound got begun to refer only to types used for hunting.[ The term "hound" is eventually derived from the Proto-Indo-European phrase *kwon-, "dog". This semantic move may be compared to in German, where the corresponding words Dogge and Hund placed their original meanings.A male canine is referred to as a dog, while a lady is named a bitch. The daddy of the litter is named the sire, and the mom is called the dam. (Midsection English bicche, from Old English bicce, finally from Old Norse bikkja) The process of birth is whelping, from the Old British word hwelp; the modern English word "whelp" can be an alternative term for dog. A litter identifies the multiple offspring at one labor and birth which are called young puppies or pups from the French poup?e, "doll", which includes changed the elderly term "whelp" typically.Your dog is classified as Canis lupus familiaris under the Biological Varieties Theory and Canis familiaris under the Evolutionary Kinds Concept.In 1758, the taxonomist Linnaeus shared in Systema Naturae a categorization of varieties which included the Canis kinds. Canis is a Latin term meaning dog, and the list included the dog-like carnivores: the home dog, wolves, foxes and jackals. The dog was classified as Canis familiaris, which means "Dog-family" or the family dog. On the next page he noted the wolf as Canis lupus, which means "Dog-wolf". In 1978, an assessment aimed at minimizing the amount of recognized Canis kinds proposed that "Canis dingo is currently generally regarded as a distinctive feral domestic dog. Canis familiaris is employed for domestic pet dogs, though it should probably be synonymous with Canis lupus taxonomically." In 1982, the first edition of Mammal Species of the globe listed Canis familiaris under Canis lupus with the comment: "Probably ancestor of and conspecific with the domestic dog, familiaris. Canis familiaris has page top priority over Canis lupus, but both were shared simultaneously in Linnaeus (1758), and Canis lupus has been universally used because of this species", which prevented classifying the wolf as the family dog. The dog is currently listed among the countless other Latin-named subspecies of Canis lupus as Canis lupus familiaris.In 2003, the ICZN ruled in its Judgment 2027 that if wildlife and their domesticated derivatives are thought to be one species, then your scientific name of this species is the clinical name of the outrageous pet. In 2005, the 3rd model of Mammal Varieties of the earth upheld Impression 2027 with the name Lupus and the take note: "Includes the local dog as a subspecies, with the dingo provisionally independent - man-made variants created by domestication and selective breeding". However, Canis familiaris may also be used due to a continuing nomenclature debate because wild and domestic animals are separately recognizable entities and that the ICZN allowed users a selection as to which name they could use, and a number of regarded research workers would rather use Canis familiaris internationally.
