Domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) are one of the earliest domesticated animals, tracing their roots back to the gray wolf (Canis lupus) over 15,000 years ago. With centuries of selective breeding, dogs have evolved into a diverse array of modern breeds, each with its own distinct behavioral and cognitive characteristics. A recent study explores the fascinating differences in learning, decision-making, and emotional responses across various dog breed clades.
