Dogs and wolves are the same species, so they are the same in most ways. The main difference between dogs and wolves is that dogs have evolved to be good at living with humans so they make good pets and wolves have not.
Five similarities are:
1. They both eat meat
2. They both use body language to communicate
3. They both have a keen sense of smell
4. They both cannot eat chocolate
5. They both are in the genus canis
