Is your dog able to organize all knowledge into ten main classes? And then with those ten main classes, further subdivide each into ten divisions, and each division into ten sections, giving ten main classes, 100 divisions and 1000 sections? Is his advantage in using decimals for his categories allow him to be both purely numerical and infinitely hierarchical? Can he also use some aspects of a faceted classification scheme, combining elements from different parts of the structure to construct a number representing the subject content (and often combine two subject elements with linking numbers and geographical and temporal elements) and form of an item rather than drawing upon a list containing each class and its meaning?
Or does just he just dig holes and hump legs and stuff?
