      Huh! You’re right, I did not know that.

      Huskies are… much closer to being actual wolves though, genetically speaking.

      Seems like this applies to malamutes and samoyeds as well…?

          My, ahem, blind guess would be probably not, as they’ve… not been widely and thoroughly domesticated for 20,000+ years?

              No idea what the more precise timeline is, for when and where dogs started having eyebrow muscles.

              Maybe if we did something comparable to the Human Genome Project, but for dogs, we could figure it out, lol?
