Etymology
The term 'dog trotting' combines two elements: 'dog,' derived from the Old English word 'docga,' which referred to a powerful breed of dog, and 'trotting,' which comes from the Middle English 'trot,' that signifies a kind of movement or gait. The concept of trotting has been prevalent in equestrian terminology, originally referring to horses' gait of moving at a moderate pace. The adaptation of the term in canine behavior highlights the similarities in locomotion and the need for description of varying speeds and movements in animals. The analysis of dog movements has led to a deeper understanding of their health and physical condition, and thus, the term 'dog trotting' became prominent in both casual and professional settings, especially in dog shows and training.
