Not sure where to post this, so feel free to move/or leave it here Saw a great programme on telly about animals namely dogs and how they evolved and interacted with us. Yes, dogs really are man’s/woman’s best friend as we share the same Love/Affection gene. This makes for great reading. There are very few breeds that still retain a trace of Wolf DNA, our domestic branch of dogs has none left. The many types of breeds today have only been around for a couple of hundred years. barkpost.com/discover/dog-human-dna/

I never thought I had much in common with them for some reason. I met some vicious dogs during my life so they terrify me in general.
The other thing that I learned is that mushrooms are closer related to humans than to plants. Which is crazy to me!

Wild dogs are vicious naturally but domestic dogs are only vicious if humans taught/treated them to be, much the shame. The building blocks of life, some follow different lines and diversify. Thus your comment for mushrooms and my comment for dogs. I have been adopted by 2 semi wild cats in my garden, they let me pick them up and cuddle and feed them, just shows you how easy it can be if you show kindness and love.

Swines are far relatives too, their gluttony system - digestive system - repeats almost every tiny cell of the human. The info can be found on the most authoritative swine forum clicking this link down: www.swineweb.com/the-digestive-tract-of-the-pig1/

The breed of this dog has been given such a negative name but as I said Humans created for the last 200 years designer dogs. They think they can cross this and that together (just like designer babies) and produce a perfect pet animal...no way. Leave creation to God. My heart felt sadness for the mother who lost her child in such a tragic way.
Forgot to add Elizabeth, I asked children/parents when I had a dog, to ask if it was alright to pet the animal. It would have helped you perhaps today with your fear of dogs.
