Welcome to Project Noah, Susie! The correct scientific name for the domestic dog (no matter which breed) is Canis lupus familiaris. You can add that to your spotting by editing it. I have moved this to the Pets section for you. For future spottings, if you don't know the scientific name for an organism, please leave that section empty and check the little "Help me ID" box so other users will know that you need some help getting identification of your find!
Since you are new here, it would be a great idea to read through the FAQ page so you can get a general idea of the rules for posting and some of the other features of the site: http://www.projectnoah.org/faq
I hope you enjoy this place as much as I do!
This should be moved to 'Pets'! Adorable dog! What's the name? :)
