What is a Dog?

A dog is a furry, four-legged animal that has been a loyal friend to humans for thousands of years. Dogs come in many shapes and sizes, from tiny lap dogs to large working breeds. They have strong senses of smell and hearing, and they love to run, play, and spend time with people. Dogs communicate with barks, whines, and wagging tails. They are covered in soft fur and can have short or long coats in every color you can imagine. Dogs eat meat, vegetables, and specially made pet food, and they need lots of love and care. Most dogs live around 10 to 15 years and weigh anywhere from a few kilograms to over 60, depending on the breed. They are known for their loyalty, energy, and happy personalities.
