The dog and the extant gray wolf are sister taxa, with modern wolves not related to the wolves that were first domesticated meticulously. 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 uniquely attuned to human behavior and they're able to flourish on the starch-rich diet that would be insufficient for other canid species. Dogs vary in condition widely, colours and size. Dogs perform many roles for folks, such as hunting, herding, pulling loads, protection, assisting police and military, companionship and, more recently, aiding handicapped individuals. This impact on human culture has given them the sobriquet "man's closest friend".

The word "domestic dog" is generally used for both domesticated and feral types. The English expression dog originates from Middle British dogge, from Old English docga, a "powerful dog breed". The term may derive from Proto-Germanic *dukk?n, represented in Old English finger-docce ("finger-muscle"). The term also shows the familiar petname diminutive -ga also observed in frogga "frog", picga "pig", stagga "stag", wicga "beetle, worm", among others. The term dog may in the end derive from the earliest layer of Proto-Indo-European vocabulary.In 14th-century Britain, hound (from Old English: hund) was the general word for those domestic canines, and dog referred to a subtype of hound, a mixed group including the mastiff. It is believed this "dog" type was so common, it eventually became the prototype of the category "hound". By 16th century, dog had end up being the general expression, and hound had begun to refer only to types used for hunting.[ The word "hound" is ultimately produced from the Proto-Indo-European phrase *kwon-, "dog". This semantic change may be in comparison to in German, where the related words Dogge and Hund maintained their original meanings.A male canine is known as a dog, while a lady is called a bitch. The paternalfather of the litter is called the sire, and the mother is named the dam. (Midsection British bicche, from Old British bicce, finally from Old Norse bikkja) The procedure of beginning is whelping, from the Old British word hwelp; the modern English word "whelp" can be an alternative term for puppy dog. A litter identifies the multiple offspring at one beginning that happen to be called puppy dogs or pups from the French poup?e, "doll", which includes typically replaced the elderly term "whelp".The dog is classified as Canis lupus familiaris under the Biological Species Theory and Canis familiaris under the Evolutionary Varieties Concept.In 1758, the taxonomist Linnaeus published in Systema Naturae a categorization of types which included the Canis kinds. Canis is a Latin term so this means dog, and the list included the dog-like carnivores: the domestic dog, wolves, jackals and foxes. Your dog was classified as Canis familiaris, which means "Dog-family" or the family dog. On the next page he saved the wolf as Canis lupus, this means "Dog-wolf". In 1978, a review aimed at lowering the amount of recognized Canis varieties proposed that "Canis dingo is now generally regarded as a distinctive feral domestic dog. Canis familiaris can be used for domestic dogs, although it should probably be synonymous with Canis lupus taxonomically." In 1982, the first edition of Mammal Species of the planet listed Canis familiaris under Canis lupus with the comment: "Probably ancestor of and conspecific with the domestic dog, familiaris. Canis familiaris has webpage goal over Canis lupus, but both were published together in Linnaeus (1758), and Canis lupus has been universally used for this species", which prevented classifying the wolf as the grouped family dog. The dog is currently listed among the many other Latin-named subspecies of Canis lupus as Canis lupus familiaris.In 2003, the ICZN ruled in its Point of view 2027 that if wild animals and their domesticated derivatives are regarded as one species, then the scientific name of that species is the clinical name of the outrageous animal. In 2005, the third edition of Mammal Kinds of the World upheld Judgment 2027 with the name Lupus and the note: "Includes the domestic dog as a subspecies, with the dingo separate - unnatural variants created by domestication and selective breeding" provisionally. However, Canis familiaris is sometimes used due to an ongoing nomenclature debate because wild and domestic animals are separately recognizable entities and that the ICZN allowed users a selection concerning which name they might use, and a number of known analysts would rather use Canis familiaris internationally.
