K nine (or K9) is a phonetic abbreviation for the word "canine" meaning "dog". from the Latin "caninus" meaning "of the dog," itself being from the Latin "canis" meaning "dog"

Canine is latin for dog. It sounds like K9 in English and people have been making a joke about it for hundreds of years. Its well worn by now trust me.
