Default Re: My favorite animal is dogs or is dog

the use of "the" plus a singular noun is used when we refer to a

group of animals, kind of machine, group of instruments, currency...

1. The dog is man's best friend.

2. I cannot play the guitar.

so i would suggest you use "My favorite animal is the dog."(with a general idea)
