About

The dog is a furry, omnivorous mammal widely regarded as the first animal to have been domesticated by humans to assist in field labor, such as herding livestock and hunting, as well as to serve as a companion. Along with the cat, the dog has long been one of the most searched pet animals in the world and a popular subgenre of animal-themed viral videos, mainly due to their de facto status as the two most popular choices of mammals for domesticated pets.
