The dog in all of our lives
The dog, known as “Hund” in the German language, has a long history. Its origin goes back to Middle High German “hunt” and Old High German “hunt”. The term grew out of the roots of Proto-West Germanic *hund and Proto-Indo-European *ḱwṓ, such as the Wiktionary explained. Whether as a loyal companion or sometimes as a cheeky prankster, dogs have accompanied us for centuries and are closely linked to our everyday lives.
