Dogs are domesticated canines. They come in a wide range of types and sizes. Their primary attack is their bite. They are pack animals and may be encountered in small groups. They might also appear with human or humanoid masters. Their keen sense of smell means they may be able to detect invisible characters or characters who are out of sight.
In a game that uses pets, a dog would be a typical starting pet. Encountered dogs might be made friendly by giving them food or playing with them (if you have a ball or stick[or wand]).
