It dogs, or follows, the sun
a Sundog is crystal that show when the sun is close to the horizon
Answer:When there are ice crystals high in the atmosphere there is frequently a "halo" around the sun. Sunlight is being refracted in this optical phenomenon. The halo often has two or four bright spots. These bright spots are referred to as a sun dog or sundog (scientific name parhelion, plural parhelia, i.e. "beside the sun"). A link can be found below.

Our sun, Sol, does not have rings around it like planets such as Saturn or Jupiter. However, the halo-like ring of light can be seen extending from it is called the corona.

A sun dog occurs when sunlight is refracted by ice crystals in the atmosphere, creating bright spots on either side of the sun. Sun dogs are typically seen when the sun is low on the horizon, such as during sunrise or sunset.
The scientific name is a "parhelion". It's when there are bright spots in rings (formed by ice crystals) around the Sun in the sky. It's not seen too often, but usually it's seen best just before sunset. Sometimes it's called a "mock Sun" and I think that gives a better idea of what the phenomenon looks like.
A Male dog is called a Dog, and a Female dog is called a Bitch.
