I tried the search function but I didn't find much directly on this subject. What was the role of man's best friend in ancient culture? I have heard that they were very important to farmers, but not from primary sources. The extent that I know of dogs is that Hades was a dog lover(see Cerberus) in their mythology, and the Romans bred certain breeds for war, but feel free to correct/enlighten me.
