I really want a dog! do you own one?

Not currently -- but we've had them and can't wait to get another. They are so uniquely tuned in to our behavior, they really feel like adding a family member.

Yeah that's why i really want one, there's definitely a strong bond there. Do you know any more benefits to having a dog?

Well, I know that a lot of people have them as emotional support animals -- but they do their share of "jobs" too, like hunting, herding, protection....they're just great mammals ;-)

Wow that would be quite useful having an emotional support dog as well just in case haha. Do you know how long ago we started domesticating dogs/wolves?
