Dogs descended from wolves.
Wolves never herd sheep.
So how did we go from wolves killing deer to herding sheep?

Like with any trait we have bred and trained in dogs, it all originated from a behavior that we still see in wolves. Sure, wolves don't really herd. However, they do hunt in a manner that involves trailing and driving prey in a wanted direction.

Basically all traits dogs have can be tracked back to an innate behavior that's been modified. It's very interesting.
