Beschreibungen
Embark on a captivating journey through the ages as "Paws and Origins" unravels the enduring connection between humanity and its oldest companions—the dogs. From the very dawn of civilization, these faithful creatures have been our friends, protectors, and integral members of our families. Delving into the annals of history, this book explores the genesis of the extraordinary partnership formed between early humans and aboriginal representatives of today's modern dogs. Imagine a time when helpless whelps were brought home by hunters, tended by women and children, and gradually evolved into cherished playmates for the entire family. "Paws and Origins" vividly portrays this evolution, tracing the footsteps of our canine companions across the globe. Discover the unique traces of indigenous dog families found in almost every corner of the world, unveiling the only exceptions in specific regions. Witness the transformation of neglected and wild dogs in Oriental lands into distinct varieties in the ancient civilizations of Assyria and Egypt. Unravel the biblical references to dogs, often spoken of with scorn and contempt, and explore the lone acknowledgment of a dog as a companion in the apocryphal Book of Tobit. The book tackles the intriguing question of the vast diversity among dog breeds, challenging the belief in a common ancestry. A thorough examination of the structural identity between wolves and dogs lays the foundation for understanding their shared characteristics, habits, and even reproductive traits. While biblical disdain painted dogs as "unclean beasts," "Paws and Origins" echoes Darwin's hypothesis, proposing that domestic dogs likely descended from various wolf species, jackals, and potentially extinct canine forms. The mingling of their bloodlines throughout history has birthed the rich tapestry of breeds we adore today.
