Dogs vary widely in shape, size and colors. They perform many roles for humans, such as hunting, herding, pulling loads, protection, assisting police and military, companionship and, more recently

For example, the domesticated silver foxes have been seen to have molted or spotted colored fur and they have become tamer. The changes in temperament are believed to be a result of a lower production of adrenaline, and the selection for tameness
