Skull of "one of the world's first dogs" found.

About 33,000 years old, the fossil's DNA shows it's closer to dog than wolf.

Not a huge shock, IMO. We co-evolved as species and it doesn't take long to take most any wild animals and breed it to a domestic version. You just breed for friendliness and the physical traits seem to come (though WHICH traits probably vary wildly from species to species).
