Dog category (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

breed

(Other definitions for breed that I've seen before include "Strain; reproduce" , "Mate specific animals to produce certain qualities" , "Produce young" , "Produce children" , "Produce offspring, say horses" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
