If you are saying that if you keep breeding dogs you can get all variaties of dogs you would be correct. Variation was part of the Creator's plan. If you say that if you keep breeding dogs you can get other animals you would be wrong and that's where evolution collapses. I'm still waiting for you or anyone else to say here is animal A; here is animal C, evolved from A; and here is animal B, the transitional animal between A and C. WHERE ARE ALL THE MISSING LINKS???? And still waiting. But I sure ain't holding my breath. ;-)

I cannot understand why you expect that animal A, B and C are alive at the same time. If A is a distant ancestor of B then A is long dead when B lives and the same applies to B and C. If your lucky enough you may find the fossils of A and B if they were preserved (and that itself is very unlikely to happen).
If you have two populations of animals that live today you can easily determine whether they are part of the same species or not. But if you try to do that with a population along the time axis that's an arbitrary categorization. You cannot say that at a particular point in time that population changed from one species into an other. That's the same as saying that at this particular wavelength yellow changes into green and at an other particular wavelength green changes into blue - that would be as arbitrary as the categorization mentioned above.
