I don't know why they are the favorites, maybe it is because how they seem to "love" us back?
Wolves are not especially friendly towards humans. The demeanor dogs have today are through thousands of years of selective breeding. Also an interesting fact is that wolves don't bark, another feature humans have produced through artificial selection.

To help us kill of course. Cats were domesticated to kill mice and other vermin. Dogs were domesticated to help us hunt and herd other animals.
