There are multiple dog-like creatures in Pokémon, with Growlithe and Arcanine being the very first of the pack. These two Fire-type Pokémon made their debut in Pokémon Red and Blue back in 1998, and both of them can be found in the latest Pokémon games as well. To all the canines in the Pokémon franchise and around the world, happy International Dog Day!
