My gosh, this topic was similar to the one on my Classical Dressage group where
there was an Athiest, a Priest and a Scientist. I kids you not... it was not a
joke either.. the debate got pretty heated. My Grandfather was a Scientist and
he told me that Science and Religion do not mix.

Subject: Re: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Our dogs are wolves?
To begin with all animals were herbivores until the 'fall of man'.
When sin entered the world God demanded a sacrifice of an animal. Maybe that
was when man - and beast - started eating meat? Anyway, how do we know the
species began with wolves? Maybe Noah took two dogs (not necessarily looking
like what we have now) onto the ark. And the wolves descended from there as
they began to search for prey to sustain themselves. I am not sure we know how
far back man domesticated these animals and likely the climate, food source
etc. determined how they looked at that time and developed/evolved over time.
I'm not sure how much this all matters. We have a superior breed now and each
will determine how they want to feed it. A dog left to itself will likely eat
roadkill, berries, almost anything - and probably be full of parasites too.

That is correct, the German Shepherd originated in Germany but it was made up
