Dogs are a domestic subspecies of wolves. They have been bred by humans across the world for a variety of roles, such as pets, guards or hunting companions.
History
In ancient Croton, the philosopher Pythagoras asked a man to stop beating a dog, claiming he could hear the voice of an old friend in its cries. This amazed the crowd watching him, as it appeared to prove his belief in reincarnation. Later, he cast out his disciple Alcmaeon for torturing a dog.[1]
Guards in the Thirteen Colonies used dogs to guard treasure chests, as well as sniff out enemies like the Assassin Connor. Even when using Wolf Cloak in an alternate reality, guard dogs were still capable of detecting him. To combat this, Ratonhnhaké:ton could lure them away by using bait and killing them.[2]
Trivia
- Guards in New York City would ignore their dogs barking at Connor if he was incognito and behaved in an inconspicuous manner.
- Killing and skinning rabid dogs in Assassin's Creed III would give Connor items he would get when skinning a wolf.
