Software

dogOS.

The operating system for the living dog. Ships on every dog. There is no hardware.

Architecture

The dog is the entire stack.

dogOS does not run on the dog. dogOS is the dog.

There is no hardware. The dog is the hardware. The dog is also the software. The dog is the operating system, the application layer, the driver, and the user manual. The user manual is the leaflet in the box. The leaflet is the only documentation. The dog has not read the leaflet. The dog does not need the leaflet. The dog is the system.

dogOS ships with every dog, on every model, at no additional cost. There is no premium version of dogOS. The dog Pro is not a premium version of dogOS. The dog Pro is a premium version of the dog. The distinction matters, and it is the entire product.
