From the playful Golden Retriever to the tiny Chihuahua, dogs have been loyal companions to humans for thousands of years all around the world. With over 200 breeds, dogs come in many different sizes, shapes, and colors, each with a distinct personality that makes them unique. Dogs aren’t just loving pets, they are also remarkable helpers, from working as service dogs for humans with disabilities to herding sheep and cows for farmers, to escorting police on daily operations.
