The classification of domestic dogs = Kingdom: Animalia (Animals) --> Phylum: Chordata (Vertebrates) --> Class: Mammalia (Mammals) --> Order: Carnivora (Carnivores) --> Family: Canidae --> Genus: Canis --> Species: Canis lupus (Gray wolf) --> Subspecies: Canis lupus familaris (Domestic Dog). All of the animals in this list will belong to the same Canidae family as the domestic dog. I am certain that some of these animals are ones you have never even heard of.
