    Are all canines dogs? I thought all dogs were canines but not all canines were dogs. Which would mean foxes and wolves would be off the table.

      Yeah I’m kinda the fox version of a “Pluto is a planet” guy. I acknowledge that the definition of dog technically excludes foxes, though I express dissent

      I’m the kind of guy who, if I showed this collage to you irl, would go: “here’s my collection of blue dogs!!! Um, and foxes, but whatever, foxes are basically dogs”
