Have you ever seen a female dog give birth and based on the animal that came out her womb, you said "thats not a dog". Have you ever seen this? Doesn't that mean that the female dog produced her own kind? Hmmm. Makes perfectly good sense to me.
No one believes that. That's really not how evolution works.
You have to define where the line for the "dog kind" should be drawn so that the definition is consistent. At what approximate taxonomic level do we put the limits for kinds? Is it species, genus, tribe, family, order? Do they need to be able to reproduce successfully to be in the same kind?
You definition needs to be consistent with itself and what we observe in Nature.
