For most of the dog/human interaction, dogs have always worked: herding, hunting, guarding, transportation, etc. Up until the 19th century we selected and bred them for their instinctive behaviors that are useful to us.
Then during the Victorian age we started fucking up their genetics primarily for their looks and ignoring their instinctive behaviors.
So today we have animals with fucked up genetics and preprogrammed behaviors being kept by people with no idea what the animals need. So the animals get into all sorts of trouble.
