My dog naturally herded sheep for pray!




My dog

This is My dog called Hector. He is a border collie and loves chasing. One time he ran up to some sheep and started to herd them together. My family has never trained him to do something like that and all of a sudden he ran around and around the sheep barking. Once a sheep was separated from the folk, he tried to move the lone sheep further and further away. These sheep didn't even belong to us but luckily, he didn't kill or injure any.





A wolf

Do you see a difference between the wolf and my dog? Well I found out that wolves do very similar things. One thing from my story is that collies are unlikely to kill. Dogs used to kill for hutting in the past, but now they don't kill because humans are breed dogs that are less aggressive and more funny/cute/playful.

The easiest explanation on how wolves changed into dogs, is that wolves managed to interacted with humans and not fear them, and the humans managed to train the wolves into hunting dogs.

Wolves body changed, their skulls, teeth, and paws shrank. Their ears also flopped as well as their temperament. Wolves gained a docile disposition which means that dogs now a days are less frightening and less fearful.

What really made a wolf a dog is that they learned to read the expressions/movements of a human's body!
