In the playlist provided below you will see some cute inter-species fun times-aka: “horsing around”- along with some other videos of beautiful horses. I hope these videos of these wonderful animals puts a smile on your face. It has been suggested by friends and fans of petfriendlysites.com that more animals need to be added to the mix of pet friendly resources. I, like most of you here, love animals and the bonds they share with each other.  This playlist featuring a horse and dog playing together videos will complement that sentiment. So, thanks to the petfriendlysites.com members and friends now we have the result of their suggestions.

This video of the horse and a dog playing together and it’s accompanying playlists of beautiful horses will be the video of the week featured on the homepage of www.petfriendlysites.com I will be making some more changes to the site that will enhance the experience as we continue to grow and expand our offerings.

Thank you for being a part of it! All the best and Enjoy, Grier

Domestication of the horse

A number of hypotheses exist on many of the key issues regarding the domestication of the horse. Although horses appeared in Paleolithic cave art as early as 30,000 BCE, these were truly wild horses and were probably hunted for meat. How and when horses became domesticated is disputed. The clearest evidence of early use of the horse as a means of transport is from chariot burials dated c. 2000 BCE. However, an increasing amount of evidence supports the hypothesis that horses were domesticated in the Eurasian Steppes approximately 4000–3500 BCE.^[1][2][3] Recent discoveries in the context of the Botai culture suggest that Botai settlements in the Akmola Province of Kazakhstan are the location of the earliest domestication of the horse.^[4]

The date of the domestication of the horse depends to some degree upon the definition of “domestication”. Some zoologists define “domestication” as human control over breeding, which can be detected in ancient skeletal samples by changes in the size and variability of ancient horse populations. Other researchers look at broader evidence, including skeletal and dental evidence of working activity; weapons, art, and spiritual artifacts; and lifestyle patterns of human cultures. There is also evidence that horses were kept as meat animals prior to being trained as working animals.  To Continue Reading about the Domestication of the Horse Click Here
