Dogs (and wolves) were domesticated in or before Neolithic times, so no one society can be considered the first to have "owned" dogs.
The dog was the first animal to be domesticated, dating back thousands of years. Cats were also domesticated early on, but not as early as dogs. Mice were not intentionally domesticated, but rather began living in close proximity to humans due to their attraction to stored grains.
they were the first animals to be domesticated
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.
Historically, the dog came first and the cat came afterward. However, there is no real scientific proof to back this up. The only proof that is available is that a dogs' skull was found before a cat's skull.
Scientists have found that dogs were first domesticated in Europe. This domestication may have taken place over 31,000 years ago.
