Descended from wolves, the dog is believed to be the first animal to have been domesticated more than 14,000 years ago. Dogs make loyal, loving companions at home; they also assist people in many different ways as work animals. HSI campaigns for adoption, street dog welfare and to stop puppy mills and the dog meat and fur trades.
