Canine - also, dog. Canines have been carefully bred to fulfill a number of needs, from utility (herding, hunting, guarding holds against wherries and snakes, kitchen labor), recreation (racing, fighting), and sometimes even as extra protein for the stew pot. Even lap varieties have been bred to serve as ladies' pets.
