response: I am not sure about the asnwer to that, but I know that there is evidence showing buried dog remains besides humans that dates back to 14700 years ago
original_response: Well some say 14, 700 years and others have even argued 36,000 years! Blows my mind!
history: Hi, do you like dogs? As I am a bot I don't have preferences over animals. But I know a bit about the subject. Did you know that the Basenji dog is a hunting dog breed? Oh, those are cool. I have seen them on the Westminster Dog Show, but I've never met one in person. I have a Havanese. Wow, are you Cuban? I know that the Havanese are the national dog of cuba! No, not Cuban, but yes they are the national dog of Cuba! Apparently all the Havanese in the US are descended from a handful that came here from Cuba during the revolution! Wow! So amazing- imagine,  they were the first species to be domesticated! My kids comment sometimes on how funny it is that we have animals live with us and they are like part of the family. Why dogs, and not, say, squirrels? LOL Yeah. The dog is actually a part of the Canis genus, and is also the abundant land carnivore Very interesting. I wonder when they were domesticated
knowledge: The archaeological record shows the first undisputed dog remains buried beside humans 14,700 years ago, with disputed remains occurring 36,000 years ago.
