About Dog
A dog is a canine animal most closely related to wolfs. They are part of the Canidae family. Dogs can be domestic or not. However, many dogs are domesticated for pets. There are over a hundred different dog species which exist. The gray wolf was the first beast to be domesticated about 15,000 years ago. Since then the beasts have led to other species by breeding them with different wolves, dogs, etc. Dogs can be trained, and depending on the breed training can be quite easy. There are sled dogs, work dogs, and your typical pet. German Shepherds are known for being work dogs with police and as rescue animals. They can also be used for helping disabled people such as seeing- eye dogs or just companions. Sled dogs tend to be huskies or dogs related to huskies. Chihuahua are very popular right now due to the movies like Beverly Hills Chihuahua.

The costume provides a plush jumpsuit with black spots and white material. It also has a hood with dog ears, eyes, and snout typical of the breed. Beagle and {K9 rescue dog} costumes also exist in a plush jumpsuit style.
