Dogs have been part of man’s world for 30,000 years at least (dogs DNA separation from the Grey Wolf goes back 100,000 years!)
But 30,000 years ago, as man’s longest domesticated companion, dogs are believed to have been critically important in man becoming a successful hunter-gatherer. That enabled early man some 20,000 years later to evolve as farmers and, thence, the long journey to modern man. But 10,000 years of farming the planet’s plant and mineral resources have brought mankind to the edge of extinction, literally as well as metaphorically.
Dogs know better! Time again for man to learn from dogs!
