This is a very strange question because the relationship of dogs and wolves are close but what you are asking about is waaaaay different.
What people mistake about evolution is at they think it's a ladder; that things started as fish, then to lizards, then dinosaurs, then as small mammals and so on. But that's not how it is. Instead of a ladder, evolution occurred as a tree. Different specimens branching off as different animals evolving at different rates becoming different species. To find the answer to you question, we'd have to research where wolves came from and back and back and forever!
The point I'm trying to make is that there is no one line that we can follow to find a trace back. Just bits and pieces. Hope this sort of helps.

Dogs are not really closely related to sea creatures, but the common ancestor of all tetrapods (amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals) evolved from fish that crawled onto land a few hundred million years ago.

I think you have it backwards. Dogs and cats evolved from miacids. Seals probably evolved from otter-like creatures (Carnivora, weasel family) and sea lions from an animal related to bears and raccoons (Carnivora). They are all "sister groups" within Carnivora.

Dogs didn't evolve. They were bread. Animals of the sea remain of the sea. It's amazing what they are still trying to pass off as truth when main stream science has abandoned evolution over a decade ago.
