What if the dogs we know today almost never existed? From tiny Chihuahuas to powerful wolves, discover how dogs evolved, survived extinction, and became some of the strangest predators on Earth. Explore what happens when a fox thrives without water, a dog hibernates like a bear, and wolves transform into Chihuahuas.
