      We co-evolved with dogs over the course of 40,000 years. in so far as the temr "natural" means anything, it is natural for dogs and humans to live together in close cooperation. there's a theory going that humans and dogs (and domesticated agricultural plants) co-domesticated each other and that our close relationship with dogs (and wheat) is why humans seem to share many traits found in domesticated animals but not wild animals.

        Malazan plays with this idea by claiming giant fantasy dogs that work for the god of death protected early humans and we kinda evolved as a result. or something like that, its been years.
