The tag implication #63936 japanese_kobold -> canid has been approved.
Reason: From the wiki:
Japanese kobolds are a species of small, canine-faced creatures featured in Japanese media like the Suikoden series. The two most prominent examples are Polt from Monster Musume and Illfang from Sword Art Online. The name is borrowed from the German word “kobold”, which was a mischievous goblin-like sprite in Germanic folklore. The Japanese qualifier is used here to distinguish them from the unrelated reptilian kobolds popularized by Dungeons & Dragons.
Looking through the tag I don't see any examples of anything that would't qualify as a canid, they are all doggish.
EDIT: The tag implication japanese_kobold -> canid (forum #408547) has been approved by @spe.
