    GoldenAC:
    Therefore, his dogs would need to be able to hunt under more than one hunter, thus human sociability was a trait selected for

    That's a good point. And stockmen in the old days dispatched quickly a dog that couldn't work with others or with humans. So, the selection of social ability and job workability were happening simultaneously, rather than being diametrically opposed.
