A dog was a small mammal in the order Carnivora, native to Earth. Dogs were domesticated from wolves relatively recently by the humans. Over time, the dog has developed into hundreds of breeds with a great degree of variation. For example, heights at the withers range from just a few inches to roughly three feet, and colours range from white to black, with reds, grays, and browns occurring in a tremendous variation of patterns. Dogs, like humans, are highly social creatures, which accounts for their trainability, playfulness and ability to fit into human households.

Behind the scenes

During the filming of The Ribos Operation, Tom Baker was bitten by Paul Seed's dog when he tried to have it perform a trick Seed himself had done. This left him with a deep cut to his upper lip. As a result, publicity stills for The Ribos Operation saw him wearing a plaster cast on his face.
