Where are Carolina Dogs from?

The Carolina Dog is believed to have originated in the Southeastern United States. These dogs are also thought to be descendants of ancient dogs brought to North America by early human settlers thousands of years ago. In the late 20th century, Dr. I. Lehr Brisbin, a biologist and former researcher at Savannah River Ecology Lab, rediscovered the wild dogs in the swamps and forests of South Carolina and Georgia.
