I don't know that many of them can have the symbiotic relationship we have with dogs.
Parrots.
I have parrots and I love them more than life itself but it's not quite the same relationship that I have with my dog. Dogs are truly special.
I cannot with parrots.
Maybe with corvids? But their love is conditional, unlike a dog or cat.
We literally have a genetic bond with dogs. Nothing on earth is quite like it.
I think your family tree looks a little bit different than mine! Lol
Um, we don't have a "genetic bond" with dogs unless you're talking about LUCA...or a dog has learned how to comment on Lemmy...

a dog is literally a wolf bread to be a perfect human companion.
That has nothing to do with a genetic bond with humans.
From your linked article:
Dogs and humans have a symbiotic bond, as the OP from your original reply said. We did not bond our genes with them, like that episode of Fullmetal Alchemist (I hope).
Sorry to be a "acktually"-type pedant about this, but terminology is important when discussing genetics, otherwise people get confused and end up like the ones that think we can't be genetically related to chimps because they exist at the same time as we do.
