  Dogs are descended from wolves that realized we had couches!

  Listening to this whilst I work, with my pack asleep on the sofa behind me. There’s nothing better than listening to my dogs snore!

  The first friendship was a child finding a stray pup. Her dad said she could keep it.

  I too believe wolfs chose humans. Why? That&apos;s easy...We have the best food😊

  Early morning in Pretoria, South Africa. My male AfriCanis on the bed beside me. His siblings, mother and pack members asleep on the mattress on the floor. Outside three AfriCanis puppies play and tumble energetically while their breakfast is cooking on the stove. Nine indigenous ancient hounds, descendants of the dogs that accompanied iron age settlers into Southern Africa. My dear companions.

  Winter Break for me now. It’s 4:52 AM, in Ontario, California. Our faithful companions “Pig”; shes a Pug, and “Ringo” a formerly abused and rescued terrier, peacefully snoozing away on my bed while I contemplate the day. Their sweet snores are my therapy. 🐾❤️💤

  I have recently (two months ago) acquired a dog because a friend of mine died and was not found for four days. The dog was in the house with the corpse all this time. During a report to police he was found and removed. &nbsp;Dog was removed to county pound. I was ask by family to pick up dog and give him a home. Of course I said yes as I knew Voodoo. &nbsp;He knew me but was always somewhat cautious about trusting me so I did not know how he would respond to me taking him home especially after what he had been through. &nbsp;He has become my guardian and growls at anyone who comes near him or me. He would not even take a treat from me when I would visit his home! Now he lives in my room and won&apos;t let anyone else in the family near him. He is a beautiful dog but it is very troublesome as he frightens the people who live with me. &nbsp;I will not turn him out though because he looks at me with that &apos;look&apos; that you so eloquently elucidated in your study. I don&apos;t know what breed he is but he looks just like the dog who won the National Dog show on our American Thanksgiving day! &nbsp;My son sent your story to me. &nbsp;He had a Belgian shepherd as a boy. He was a great dog. Again thank you for a wonderful enlightening story about our best friends!

  Listening with my four rescued dogs on a stormy night in Cape Town, South Africa. I like to remind them of their ancestry.😊
