Tim Burton painting - mostly black and white with a burning red spiral which points down to a strange little creature. The text reads ‘the last of its kind’

Since we all really FELT that ancient pooch who wouldn’t drop the ball, I figured I may as well tell you a bit about dogs in ancient Mesopotamia.

They leave traces everywhere, from bricks to burials to proverbs. Here’s a 4,000-year-old paw print of a pooch on a brick from ancient Ur
