Dogs were banned recently because too many men were using them as a means to talk to women.

But as for historical reasons, in the mid-east dogs were "filthy" creatures that turned garbage into fertilizer, and it was noticed that people who were in close contact with stray dogs (i.e., near all the trash) were the ones most likely to get sick, so eventually they became viewed as large rats.
