Dogs are a domesticated form of the Grey Wolf, so they are essentially the same species. They are different because dogs are domesticated, or tamed, and wolves are just wild animals. Although they do have a lot in common, they are not exactly the same.

One thing that dogs can do that wolves cant is to be known as a domestic animal.

...Personally I would say "One thing that dogs can do that wolves can't" is "Bark" - however to qualify, many breads closer to their wolf ancestors in the Hound category, "howl" like the wolf rather than bark. Wolves raised in captivity can be semi domesticated and there are many documented cases wolves being kept as a pet.

Popular opinion on the origins of the domestic dogs we know today, suggest they were probably abandoned youngsters of the wolf packs that hung round the camps of early civilisations hoping for left over scraps and gradually built trust with their human benefactors.
