the natural dog had to survive by chasing/catching prey...running on all fours is so much faster and less tiring than covering the same ground on 2 legs..If you watch wild primates, they revert to running on four legs when they are in a hurry...
My dogs can run circles around me when we are out for a run...lol...I only wish I could cover so much ground in a day..!!

Well, actually, we all do. Human beings and primates learned to stand on their hind legs. Quadrupeds are amongst the most common limb 'designs', especially amongst mammals.

because its easier to balance on three legs when having a wee rather than one leg if they only had two!! 6 legs would be over kill
