Debi Matlack · Accepted Answer

Dogs are believed to have descended from Asian wolves. Since their association with man, people have selectively bred them for certain tasks or abilities, such as herding, chasing and catching prey, or other work. In my personal opinion, with many dog breeds, we've gone too far, breeding for appearance only, and neglecting the temperament and health of the resulting animals.
