We Finally Know Where Dingos Sit in Dogs’ Evolutionary Family Tree.

Any dog that can sit in a tree is one to treasure.
My blue heeler could do that but I had to put the
ladder up first.

Im sure you realize by now that none of this research, regardless of the intent of the researcher, really has anything to do with dogs.

As a person with three working dachshunds (fox, groundhog and rabbit hunting) I couldn’t agree with you more.

"Future work on more dingo genomes will address whether the dingo has ever been domesticated at all, and also measure the level and impact of pure dingo crossbreeding with domestic dogs.

While many hybrid dingoes are similar in appearance, there has been substantial crossbreeding, particularly in New South Wales and Victoria."

That's a bit of an understatement, given dingoes were bred to collies by Thomas Hall 180 years ago, and after a flurry of subsequent breeding 'refinements' in Oz, the AuCaDo made its way to the US and has been an AKC recognized breed for 42 years. You can still see the dingo in them.

Would you call your dachshunds “dackel” or “teckel”? The Euro name for hunting dachshunds, known as the best small game hunting dogs. Full time hunting dogs, and known for their savagery, they are not pets.

I gather when fighting with larger dogs, they get underneath them and eviscerate them. Tailor made for fighting in burrows.
