A species is defined as a group of similar organisms which can interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Both a Poodle and a Greyhound are therefore of the same species, Canis Lupus Familiaris, as they are genetically very similar and can produce puppies which can themselves breed. An example of two species which appear very similar but cannot produce fertile offspring are the donkey and the horse. A donkey can mate with a horse and produce a foal (which is known as a mule), but this foal will be infertile and unable to produce its own offspring. Therefore, we know that a donkey and a horse are not of the same species, and that a Poodle and a Greyhound are.
