National Dog Dad Day is observed annually on the day before Father’s Day, which falls on June 17 this year. It is an opportunity for all dog fathers to express their affection for their canines and strengthen the bond between dogs and their owner fathers. As with all human-animal relationships, the bond between dogs and their dog parents is unique. The day is observed so that you may spend time with your companion and provide it with all the treats it deserves.
The relationship between dogs and humans has a lengthy history. Archaeological evidence suggests that canines were the first domesticated animals. Prior to the domestication of horses and ruminants by more than 10,000 years, dogs were domesticated 30,000 years ago. When grey wolves found scavenging for food remnants from humans began cooperating in exchange for food and shelter, domestication began. The wolves assisted the hunter-gatherers in their pursuit of sustenance. Over the course of thousands of years of selective breeding, wolves evolved into the canines we have today.
At a burial location in Predmosti, Czech Republic, bones of a dog believed to be around 32,000 years old were discovered. Along with the corpses of a man and a woman, the skeleton of a disabled dog believed to be approximately 14,300 years old was discovered in Oberkassel, Germany. This suggests that the relationship between humans and canines dates back thousands of years. Numerous dog cemeteries have been discovered. It is believed that the mummified black hound of Tumut in Russia is approximately 12,450 years old.
Approximately 12,000 years ago, at the Ain Mallaha Natufian settlement in Israel, twelve individuals are buried with one hand on the corpse of a small puppy. The function of dogs in ancient civilizations, such as Anubis in Egypt, Xolotl in the Maya, and Cerberus in Greece, was to accompany the deceased to the afterlife.
