How Dog Breeds Have Changed Over the Last 100 Years

Dogs have lived side by side with humans for thousands of years.

Although we can only guess how our dogs looked in the very beginning, we can easily compare them with dogs that lived a century ago.

In quite a short time, some breeds have changed beyond recognition because of human influence.

Some dogs became better, and some… not so much! But we think that dogs are still cuties anyway!

Check out how different dog breeds have changed over the last 100 years on the next page!

    There would be no (domestic) dog breeds were it not for human interference. And you’ll probably find that some traits have improved over the years. And that bulldog is an extreme example of a modern version!.

    My dachshund had to be put down coz her back legs stopped working at 4yrs old. I wish they hadnt bred them to be so ridiculous and kept their legs that wee bit longer 🙁 x

    Sorry for your loss, its horrible to see them deteriorate 🙁 thankfully roxy only suffered for a week. Felt awful for putting her down though but she wouldn’t have been happy and I knew I made the right decision. Xx

    what a shame kennel clubs have established such firm standards – they’re not all good. Any why are any dogs being docked or cropped in this day and age? No reason for it.

    My current two are “midis”, standard father and mini mother, the male is more inclined to “100 years ago”, the female “current day/now”…..both beautiful
