All dogs are the same species. Different breeds do not have different scientific names. There are about 400 different breeds recognized by various kennel clubs throughout the world.





The domestic dog used to be called Canis familiaris until the 1990s, when it was reclassified as a subspecies of the gray wolf. The correct scientific name for the domestic dog today is Canis lupus familiaris.
