There is no doubt about ancestor of dog which is wolf, but there are always arguments about time and place of domestication. There are three different place of domestication including Europe, Southeast of Asia and Middle East. The majority of the scientists from Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Portugal, Russia and USA claimed that domestication happened in Europe but domestication time was not definite. Also some scientists from China, Sweden and USA claimed that the domestication happened in Southeast of Asia. At last one scientist from Israel claimed that possible origin of dog was Middle East. Altogether there is still no definite answer about place and time of domestication.
