Wolves are pack animals, and treat other members of their pack as equals. It's really not that surprising that an offshoot of their species was domesticated.

Also, dogs are actually kinda unique in how changeable they are. I don't know of any other species with such drastic variations in size, coloring, and behavior.

Humans are also inherently cooperative for survival, and it has been argued by some credible historians that our current forms of antagonistic society is an abberation from the norm.
