There is no dog which is native to Tasmania.

The question may arise from confusion over the Thylacine, commonly referred to also as either the Tasmanian tiger or even the Tasmanian wolf. The Thylacine, now extinct, was a marsupial. It was neither a tiger nor a wolf.

The only dogs in Tasmania are domesticated dogs, or wild dogs (including foxes) resulting from the introduction of dogs to the island. Not even the dingo can be found in Tasmania.
