Now the accepted theory is that wild dogs/wolves could have been tamed very fast by humans. So I wonder if the reverse is true?

In the rural area I grew up in, city people would 'drop off' unwanted dogs and they packed up real quick. Seldom were they afraid of humans. Usually they had to be dealt with by shotgun.

That’s my understanding too. A few generations of feral breeding the wildest wuoldn’t do anything to tame them either.
