Best Answer

Yes.

Domestic dogs are in fact Canis lupus familiaris a subspecies of Canis lupus, the grey Wolf from which they are descended. Although different breed from Great Dane to Chihuahua are dramatically different in external appearance they are genetically very similar and in a few generations of crossbreeding will produce descendants very close to the ancestral Wolf.

Until recently the Domestic Dog was actually classified as a separate species Canis familiaris.
