Dogs Decoded
Program Description

(Program not available for streaming.) "Dogs Decoded" reveals the science behind the remarkable bond between humans and their dogs and investigates new discoveries in genetics that are illuminating the origin of dogs—with surprising implications for the evolution of human culture. Other research is proving what dog lovers have suspected all along: Dogs have an uncanny ability to read and respond to human emotions. Humans, in turn, respond to dogs with the same hormone responsible for bonding mothers to their babies. How did this incredible relationship between humans and dogs come to be? And how can dogs, so closely related to fearsome wild wolves, behave so differently?

Dogs have been keeping humans as pets for millenia.

They've trained us to wash them, feed them, walk them on command, provide them with housing and medical, clean up after them, scratch them behind the ears whenever they feel like it, throw the ball or whatever object they want us to throw.
Sometimes their consciences trouble them though.

I used to own a wolf, and the only difference I've noticed is the oustanding loyalty and bond you can have with a wolf, the closest thing I've found to that is a German Shepard, but a wolf is the best damn dog you could ever own.
