They were domesticated approximately 12000 years ago. The first breeds included Akitas, Japanese Chins, Basenjis, Borzois, Chihuahuas, and others that I can't remember of the top of my head, and they descended from the Europian, Asian, and American wolves.

Native Americans in North and Mezo America did not have domesticated animals in the sense of food animals, beasts of burden or pets. They did have (for lack of a better term) semi-domesticated dogs. The dogs served as watchdogs after a fashion, barking warning of animal or human intruders. The humans fed the dogs scraps and allowed them to warm at their fires. Canine senses and human weapons together were a more formidable foe to bears, wolves, cougars and other predators than either made seperately. The dogs ran free and there's no indication that particular dogs and humans developed the life long relationships of truly domesticated animals. In South America, Native Americans domesticated the alpaca and the llama. They provided milk, meat, wool and leather.

Are there wild dogs?

There have always been wild dogs present in the wild. Wild dogs are the origin of domesticated dogs. Dogs were domesticated millions of years ago by people as hunting aids and companions and obviously not all wild dogs could be domesticated due to the number of wild dogs present on the earth in comparison to the number of people in those times, so some wild dogs remain, though the number of wolves are becoming minimal in comparison to domesticated dogs.
