This is EXACTLY how genetics works. Research the Belyaev's domestic fox program. It took about 4 generations of choosing the calmest and friendliest to make a domestic fix on par with our domestic dog breeds.

This is what dog breeding is. Breeding to get a specific dog behaviour was literally 90% of dog breeding ... before the weird cosmetic trend started.
