Dogs will adapt to their environment. By this I mean they instinctively make whatever changes are necessary without batting an eye to secure food, lodging, etc. to keep themselves healthy. Granted, the Presto Dog pack are all domesticated animals as I'm sure your pets are too, but I see vestiges of their ability to survive as we go from day to day.
For instance, a simple trip outdoors and its subsequent play time recently revealed the adaptability aforementioned. Notice the picture below:
 Doug the Adaptable
It shows Dougie, our tri-color Collie, trotting around our yard. As you're looking at him, over his left shoulder you may be able to make out a green watering can. A minute before this picture was taken, Dougie had gone over to the watering can, inserted his extra-long tongue into it and took a satifying drink.
Now, it's not that we're cheap with the water or anything like that; it's just that when Dougie wants is water, it better be around!
He's a tribute to Charles Darwin who noted that the strongest species is the one that survivest.
