There is an organization called Dog Wish, Org. that trains dogs to work with dementia patients and also alert the caregiver. They do have a website at dogwish.org for more information
Because it tastes good and people with dementia are not dogs....
Dogs have ears so they can stay alert and keep watch for safety and protection. Most living things have ears, it is a form of survival and protection for themselves.
They can live for years, as do people. As for, "What can you do?", Google it for signs, symptoms, and treatment (there are several available). This is a question for you to discuss with your Vet.
Watch dogs make a huge fuss when anyone comes around. They will alert you that something is wrong. A chihuahua could be a watch dog. Guard dogs can--at least in theory--actually protect you, although you need to do a good bit of obedienc training etc if you want to be able to count on him and control him. According to a sociological study of burglars that I read, they are less likely to break into a house if they think the people inside are awake and alert, regardless of the size of the dog. The study also said they are more afraid of large black dogs. Why black? It didn't say.
Guard dogs are different from attack dogs because guard dogs will bark loudly to alert their owners of an intruder's presence and to scare away the intruder. Attack dogs will also bark loudly to alert their owners, but will go in for the attack.

Because dogs can watch its owner's house and dogs can eat people's food... dogs are very helpful and good that's why it's a pet.
Yes, they did. There are many references to dogs in the Victorian books I have read, varying from lap dogs, to hunting dogs and vicious guard dogs and watch dogs. In point of fact, people have have dogs since the beginning of written history and likely before that. Dogs and humans seem to have a natural affinity.
