How dogs came to be
A newly discovered chapter in the Book of Genesis has provided the answer the "Where do pets come from".
Adam and Eve Said, "Lord when we were in the garden, you walked with us everyday. Now, we do not see you anymore. We are lonesome here and it is difficult for us to remember how much you love us."
And God said, " I will create a companion for you that will be with you and who will be a reflection of my love for you. So, that you you will love me even when you can't see me. Regardless of how selfish or childish or unlovable you may be, this new companion will accept you as you are and will love you as I do. In spite of yourselves.
And God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam and Eve.
And it was a good animal.
And God was pleased.
And the new animal was pleased to be with Adam and Eve and wagged his tail.
And Adam said, "Lord, I have already named all the animals in the kingdom and I can not think of a name for this new animal".
And God said,"I have created this animal to be a reflection of me own love for you, his name will be a reflection of me own name. You will call him DOG".
and Dog lived with Adam and Eve and was a companion to them and loved them.
and they were comforted
and God was pleased.
and Dog was content and wagged his tail.
After a while, it came to pass that an angel came to the Lord and said, " Lord, Adam and Eve have become filled with pride. They strut and preen like peacocks and believe they are worthy of adoration. Dog has indeed taught them that they are loved, but perhaps too well."
And God said,"I will create for them a companion who will be with them and who will see them as they are. The companion will remind them of their limitations so they will know that they are not always worthy of adoration."
And God created Cat to be a companion to Adam and Eve.
And Cat would not obey them. And when Adam and Eve gazed into Cats eyes, they were reminded that they were not the supreme beings.
And Adam and Eve learned humility.
And they were greatly improved.
And God was pleased.
And Dog was happy.
And Cat didn't give a shit one way or the other.

Re: How dogs came to be
You own a dog , you feed a cat.
You have a dog, you love it, feed it, take care of it. The dog looks at you and thinks, "Wow, he must be a god".

Re: How dogs came to be
Thanx Now I understand why you can feed a cat a gourmet meal and it will turn its nose up at it and walk three feet away and lick it's own ass!
