Canine genetics came up in another thread. I asked some questions, but unfortunately but they haven't been answered. So I thought I'd start a new thread to see how creationists can explain canine genetics from a creationist POV.
In particular:
1) What was the starting point for the domestication of canines?
2) Do wolves and domesticated dogs share a common ancestor?
3) If yes to #2, do domesticated dogs share a common ancestor with any other species (e.g. foxes, jackals, coyotes, etc.)?
4) How many Caninae "kinds" are there? How many were on the Ark (if one ascribes to those beliefs)?
5) How did the assortment of genetic traits that are in domesticated dogs arise? How are those genetic traits distributed in the originating populations?
