Dog Breeds

All 617 dog breeds on Wikipedia's list, the 62 extinct or critically endangered ones flagged, one row each: origin, coat and colour from the breed infobox, height and weight as written plus low/high/mid numeric twins in both cm/in and kg/lb (male and female figures merged into the breed's full range, the missing unit system converted), and life expectancy extracted from article prose since Wikipedia's infobox dropped the field, with the exact source phrase kept alongside the numeric twins so study-specific figures keep their context.
