Although no one knows for sure how those first bonds were forged, it is likely that a scene much like the one quoted above happened on more than one occasion. Bones and artifacts point to the fact that dogs and man have long shared a symbiotic relationship. Evidence exists tying dogs to humans as much as 15,000 years ago. Evidence of the emotional bond between human and dogs can be documented in a grave in Israel dating 12,000 to 10,000 BC. In it was found a woman cradling a puppy as she left this world to continue to the next.
