The strong relationship between men and dogs goes back deep into the history of civilization.  When society depended on hunting to survive, they quickly realized that by teaming up with dogs both species prospered.  The working relationship between the two was truly a partnership, which resulted in a natural understanding between man and dog as they worked closely together.  As a result, when dogs underwent training, it was as much about helping the each to understand the other as it was about improving his ability to perform.
