The dog is a domesticated descendant of the wolf.

- Because the ova survive and can be fertilized for a week after ovulation, more than one male can sire the same litter.
- At the peak of the cycle, females will become estrous, mentally and physically receptive to copulation.
- They will experience subsequent estrous cycles semiannually, during which the body prepares for pregnancy.
- In domestic dogs, sexual maturity happens around six months to one year for both males and females, although this can be delayed until up to two years of age for some large breeds, and is the time at which female dogs will have their first estrous cycle.
- For dogs in England, increased body weight has been found to be negatively correlated with longevity (i.e., the heavier the dog, the shorter its lifespan), and mixed-breed dogs live on average 1.2 years longer than purebred dogs.
- The median longevity of mixed-breed dogs, taken as an average of all sizes, is one or more years longer than that of purebred dogs when all breeds are averaged.

- The typical lifespan of dogs varies widely among breeds, but for most, the median longevity (the age at which half the dogs in a population have died and half are still alive) ranges from 10 to 13 years.
- Dogs are also vulnerable to some of the same health conditions as humans, including diabetes, dental and heart disease, epilepsy, cancer, hypothyroidism, and arthritis.
- Signs of ingestion can include copious vomiting (e.g., from eating cigar butts) or diarrhea. Some other symptoms are abdominal pain, loss of coordination, collapse, or death.
- The nicotine in tobacco can also be dangerous to dogs.
- causing theobromine poisoning, onions and garlic, causing thiosulphate, sulfoxide or disulfide poisoning, grapes and raisins, macadamia nuts, and xylitol.
- Several human foods and household ingestible are toxic to dogs, including chocolate solids,
- which is a roundworm species that lives in the hearts of dogs.
- Dogs are also susceptible to parasites such as fleas, ticks, mites, hookworms, tapeworms, roundworms, and heartworms,
- Both of these are acute conditions and can kill rapidly.
- which affects larger breeds or deep-chested dogs.
- Two severe medical conditions significantly affecting dogs are pyometra, affecting unspayed females of all breeds and ages, and Gastric dilatation volvulus (bloat),
- The finis are taking their talents to South Beach.

- In some hunting dogs the tail is traditionally docked to avoid injuries.

- As with many canids, one of the primary functions of a dog's tail is to communicate their emotional state,
- There are many different shapes for dog tails: straight, straight up, sickle, curled, or corkscrew.
- this is associated with impulsive behaviors, anxiety behaviors, fear of noise, and fear of unfamiliar people or animals.
- Premature graying can occur in dogs from as early as one year of age;
- Breeds may have an occasional "blaze", stripe, or "star" of white fur on their chest or underside.
- The coats of domestic dogs are of two varieties: "double" being familiar with dogs (as well as wolves) originating from colder climates, made up of a coarse guard hair and a soft down hair, or "single", with the topcoat only.
- A dog's senses include vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch. One study suggested that dogs can feel Earth's magnetic field.
- and the very short and broad brachycephalic type exemplified by mastiff type skulls.
- The three basic skull shapes are the elongated dolichocephalic type as seen in sighthounds, the intermediate mesocephalic or mesaticephalic type,
- The dog's skull has identical components regardless of breed type, but there is significant divergence in terms of skull shape between types.
- Most dogs naturally have 26 vertebrae in their tails, but some with naturally short tails have as few as three.
- dwarfism has been selectively utilised for some types where short legs are advantageous such as dachshunds and corgis.
- selective breeding since domestication has seen the dog's skeleton greatly enhanced in size for larger types as mastiffs and miniaturised for smaller types such as terriers;
- Compared to the dog's wolf-like ancestors,
- the long ribs provide plenty of room for the heart and lungs, and the shoulders are unattached to the skeleton allowing great flexibility.

- the vertebrae on the neck and back have extensions for powerful back muscles to connect to,
- The dog's skeleton is well adapted for running;
- although there is significant skeletal variation between dogs of different types.
- All healthy dogs, regardless of their size and type, have an identical skeletal structure with the exception of the number of bones in the tail,
- The most striking example of this dispersal is that of the numerous modern breeds of European lineage during the Victorian era.
