Hi there,
the thing is they arent even really a subspecies.
Theres a great article posted in my University Anthropology
department on this, wish I could remember the name.
It was discussing how the scientific community has decided
dogs be renamed from Canis Familiaris, to Canis Lupus,
as they are indeed the same species as the wolf, not a subspecies.
Next time Im over there Ill get the article name and author.
