Dog

Luke Skywalker owned a dog in his youth on Tatooine. Luke would reflect upon his pet as he left his home system for the first time on the Millennium Falcon.

At least one other dog lived in Anchorhead.

"Dog" was also sometimes used as a term of contempt. While C-3PO's head was temporarily attached to a B-1 battle droid's body during the Battle of Geonosis, he was heard to shout, "Die, Jedi dogs!"

Behind the scenes
As with most Earth animals featured in the Star Wars canon, the status and origins of the dog remain a mystery.
