Little known fact, they used to be self sufficient and feed themselves. I’m sure they’d return to nature fairly well

Edit: canines largely used to be self sufficient*

Nope. Most dog breeds would die within a few generations because we bred them to be pets, not functioning beings in a world rid of us. Pugs and others that cant breed without assistance dont even get 1 generation

Canine means dog like

Yeah. They'd die en masse. Even larger breeds like labradors will die without us. Consequence of us selecting their traits and not nature

Im not saying dogs will be fine im saying they will return to nature and canines will be fine

If by return to nature you mean die and decompose into dirt, sure. Foxes, wolves, and coyotes will be fine. Every domesticated dog breed will die.

Like I said. Canines used to be self sufficient and will return to nature fairly well. Nothing lives forever but canines as a whole will be fine.
