Dog race
Race dog
Dogs -- man's best friend, and the postman's worst foe. Loyal to the owner, aggressive to strangers, always ready to share their drool and fur.
The fur holds cold -- winter only helps. Wounds get licked on the move. Fire, though, is ruin: burning fur on a fast animal is a bad combination. In battle they bite like lightning and often fall into rage.
Cats can't stand them (mutually), felars especially. Dogs turn up almost anywhere, from Mother Goose to Haon Dor. Many can be tamed and made into followers.
