The partnership between mankind and canine is one of the oldest and most successful relationships on Earth. Every since early man sat around a fire and tossed scraps of meat to a curious gray wolf, the relationship between the two was based on trust.

Virtually all breeds of dogs stem from the gray wolf and they have been tied to mankind ever since.

It isn't just by accident that the scientific name for the dog is Canis Lupus Familliaris . The canine has been man's constant companion for centuries, and with apologies to cat lovers everywhere, they have earned the nickname “man's best friend.”
