Here is another interesting dog that very few people have ever heard about.
Even though it is not a wild dog, it is special because it is one of the earliest civilized dogs. This special dog is the American Indian Dog, and there are still a few of them being kept from Alaska to South America, by the tribes of Native Americans in the various areas.
There are a few breeders that are now also raising the Indian Dog, trying to keep the breed from going extinct. These are the kind of dogs that were kept by our native people as far back as they have the records and pictures of both the Indians and their dogs .
This webpage has more of the interesting history of these dogs, as well as early pictures of the dogs at Indian camps; and also some pictures of the dogs as they are today.
