I only have one pet and that's a dog. They are apart of the genus "Canis".
Neat! I love dogs. I have an English Springer Spaniel. Are other animals part of a different genus?
English Springer Spaniel
The English Springer Spaniel is a breed of gun dog in the Spaniel family traditionally used for flushing and retrieving game. It is an affectionate, excitable breed with a typical lifespan of twelve to fourteen years.

seven other dogs in the final round including a German Shepherd Dog, a Borzoi and a Pekingese. Best in Show judge Barbara Heller said of Robert's victory, "The dog is as near to perfection as possible, He showed his heart out and I had a really hard time deciding. I always think it's easy to judge when you have good dogs, but this time it wasn't that easy because all seven were outstanding." He became the first English Springer Spaniel to take the title since 1972.
