Care for your dog
Experts say that dogs were domesticated between 12,000 and 25,000 years ago, and that all dogs evolved from the wolf. Since then, humans have selectively bred more than 400 breeds, randing in size from four-pound teacup poodles to Irish wolfhounds, whose three-foot stature earns them the title of the tallest canine.
But the most popular pooches are non-pedigree - the one-of-a-kind dogs known as mixed-breeds.
