Archaeologists have unearthed what they believe could be the oldest ever remains of a domesticated pet dog.

It is thought the remains could be between 14,000 and 20,000 years old, spanning back to the very dawn of the special relationship between humans and canines.

While dogs are known as man's best friend and one of the most domesticated animals on Earth, the origin of this dynamic is still a relative mystery.

I quit Smithsonian over their anti-White positions, etc.

I don't read Smithsonian so I didn't know. Just thought most would rather see a general article.

Here's the actual paper, love PLOS
