 NPR's coverage of this story highlighted the fact that some very
 different-looking dogs are actually fairly closely related, and among
 the group of breeds most closely related to their wolf ancestors:
 everything from Alaskan Malamutes and Siberian Huskies, which most
 people would agree look pretty much like wolves, to Pekingese, Shih
 Tzus, and Shar-Peis, which hardly anyone would take for a wolf.

Most of those little dogs are vicious. I always suspected they were
closer to wolves.
