Answer Preview
The bear dogs resembled the primitive dogs in many aspects that include body proportions. The bear dogs fall in the family of amphicyonids and had heavier bodies as compared to the primitive dogs. The anthropological experts presume that the amphicyonids were plantigrade rather than digitigrade like the modern dogs. According to historical research, the amphicyonids walked with the foot bones positioned flat on the ground just like bears to ensure effective contact between the foot and the ground.
