Indogg Dogs

 

\

Indogs have a logical and analytical approach to life. They have great patience and are willing to spend a lot of time learning anything that interests them. They also appreciate having a project to focus their attention on. However, they do not like having their work interrupted. They have strong territorial instincts and may become aggressive if they feel their pack or family is threatened. They are very social animals and enjoy living in packs with other dogs and humans but may not trust or be comfortable around people they do not know.

They are very good at judging their environment and discerning which people are safe to interact with. They have a strong bond with their human companions and may act as watchdogs. They will not tolerate being left alone for long periods of time or being treated poorly, but they will not be aggressive unless provoked. They tend to be a little wary of strangers and may not always respond well to being approached by unfamiliar people, but will warm up to those who treat them with kindness.

INDogs have a long history in Indian culture and art, and are portrayed as hunting partners in many tribal paintings and sculptures. They are also prominent in the folklore of many tribes and have been a part of Indian village life for thousands of years. They have been kept as livestock guardians, property guards and companion dogs in villages.

It will be impossible to determine the antiquity of INDogs until ancient domestic dog DNA is tested, but it seems likely that they are the descendants of primitive-type dogs that coexisted with humans 4500 years ago and earlier. This is supported by archaeological evidence of the presence of dog remains in ancient settlements and by the resemblance of INDogs to ancient dingoes found elsewhere in Asia.

The most pressing threat to INDogs is genetic swamping by non-native breeds, which has already occurred in other indigenous dog populations around the world. A recent tool for assessing this threat is the genetic testing of free-ranging dogs, which can detect even small amounts of admixture with European breeds. Rural INDog-type populations have shown uniform morphology in these tests, since villagers of this socioeconomic profile do not acquire European breeds as pets. Urban dog populations have varied morphology, as they are often poorly supervised and frequently show signs of admixture with European breeds.

Currently, Indogg are becoming more popular in the West. They are now being sold as pets and service dogs. They have been featured on television shows and in a National Geographic Channel documentary called Search for the First Dog, which was first aired in 2003.
