Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -All animals are consumers, and they eat other organisms.
Detailed explanation-2: -A dog is a business unit that has a small market share in a mature industry. A dog thus neither generates the strong cash flow nor requires the hefty investment that a cash cow or star unit would (two other categories in the BCG matrix). A dog measures low on both market share and growth.
Detailed explanation-3: -Pet food ranks among top-selling consumer product goods.
Detailed explanation-4: -Dogs are secondary consumers, so they would be on the third trophic level.
