As I was falling asleep earlier a stray thought floated into my head.  In the Gaiden arc (and correct me if I'm wrong about all this) we see that Kakashi has this awesome ability with his senses that mimic some of the canine senses.  Hence his father's nickname and, we can assume, why he summons his army of nin dogs. 

So I was wondernig about this ability and realized, if you think about it, its not all that special.  The Inuzuka's have abilities similar to their canine companions as well.  From there I started thinking, maybe Kakashi's family line and Kiba's family line, somewhere in the distant past, was once joined together and that's why they have similar ablities. 

It isn't unheard of.  They mention in theory that the Uchiha and Hyuuga lines used to be one before a split happened and that's why they both have advanced bloodlines dealing w. their eyes. 

So that was my crazy idea and feel free to shoot it down.  I was more than half-asleep at the time and could have been completely connecting things that aren't there.
