Closest Klingon canine analog – Klingon Language Institute

Is there a better word than "targh" that Klingons would think of when they see a Terran dog? Need not be an animal that Klingons domesticate.

Comment below with feedback and suggestions.

In particular, what is Kruge's monster dog called in Klingon?

  Fascinating:
  Apocrypha
  In the novelization of Star Trek III, the creature was named "Warrigul". In the Star Trek III: Starship Combat Game, the creature was a jadashha named "Deathclaw".

I have beem wondering as well. Is there a reason, other than the Klingon's best friends are targs? Or is it some king of joke at the expense of dog lovers?
