Scientists who have analysed remains from Viking burial grounds in Britain have found that some of the bones were from dogs and horses. The animals were buried in a way that suggests they were companions of the humans. The chemical compund of the bones shows the animals came from Scandinavia. They must have sailed with the Vikings to Britain.
All of this shows that Vikings cared a lot about their dogs. This proves, in my mind, that they were cultural and sophisticated people. Humans who care about dogs are not savages.
These dogs must have had exciting lives.
