Line 14:

Dogs demonstrate an unparalleled emotional connection to sapients, responding to vocal tone, pheromones, and even psionic resonance. Their capacity for learning through mimicry and social reinforcement makes them invaluable as hunters, guards, and companions.

In Galaxa, domestic dogs are a cultural constant among nearly all human-descended civilizations. In [[Aerenda]], only two primary breeds exist — the massive '''Wolfhund''' and the smaller '''Hund''' — both direct analogues of Galaxan mastiffs and shepherd dogs. [[Midheim]] features mastiffs, corgis, and hounds adapted to cold and mountainous terrain, while [[~~Lethurèa~~]] notably lacks dogs entirely, possessing instead unrelated caniform analogues that evolved under separate divine influence.
