Animal Domestication

"The domestication of animals probably began about 12,000 years ago and involves more than simply taming. Certain animals had the temperament to remain close to humans, receiving benefits such as protection or a more secure food supply.

Other factors such as companionship (the dog was the first domestic animal), religious reasons and use as beasts of burden made the links more secure. Animals are domesticated when they are kept for clear purposes, their breeding is controlled, survival depends on humans, and they have acquired traits not found in the wild." from Site.
