Dogs are humans' oldest companions, DNA shows

To some extent, dog genetic patterns mirror human ones, because people took their animal companions with them when they moved. But there were also important differences.

But at some point, perhaps after the onset of the Bronze Age, a single dog lineage spread widely and replaced all other dog populations on the continent. This pattern has no counterpart in the genetic patterns of people from Europe.Anders Bergström, lead author and post-doctoral researcher at the Crick, said: "If we look back more than four or five thousand years ago, we can see that Europe was a very diverse place when it came to dogs.

The results reveal that breeds like the Rhodesian Ridgeback in southern Africa and the Chihuahua and Xoloitzcuintli in Mexico retain genetic traces of ancient indigenous dogs from the region.

SEDLAW15 It doesn't matter much what you journalists have published but they look like The Big Dog is Iran fake imam Khamenei and Armenian NikolPashinyan sits his back.

BBCWorld true!

BBCWorld Of course they are. What other animal loves us so much even when times get ruff

BBCWorld ふ〜ん…そうなんだ〜

When a species makes you think it's your best friend you've been played.

This is not news to any loving dog owner !

BBCWorld Dogs are like a 4yo child with ADHD, just want attention were a Cat is Better, just got to feed them, they will let you know when it's time to play, and they are less smelly lol

I never had any idea of their origin, but I do know them to be remarkable beings.

BBCWorld Explain the Chihuahua though is he alright

BBCWorld I will create a clickable html email signature for your brand MAMAMOO Macron bbcnews TO_BTS

BBCWorld Still not as good as a cat

This says that dogs are far more kind and loving than we imagined. Humans are real assholes.

It's the unconditional love - even when we don't deserve it!

Man's best friend! And also tasty treats!

BBCWorld Seen this LordIanAustin ?

BBCWorld that photo is adorable

BBCWorld StopArmenianAggression StopArmenanTerrorism
