RoadGumby: “Wolves, dogs, coyote, are Canines “dogs”. Breed them into FISH. Or perhaps a BIRD.”
But nobody, nobody ever claimed that’s what happened or happens in nature.
So you are just making a straw-man argument.

Except that THAT IS what evolution claims. A fish climbed out of the primordial pond, became a land animal, a non-fish, that changed further until we have all that we have today.

Here's an evolutionary graph I've seen posted here that supports what you say; I wonder what part of it is a "straw man":

No, FRiend, in an effort to sound absurd, you first claimed the reverse -- that wolves could become fish or birds.
Nothing like that ever happened.

But fossil records are clear and consistent, over hundreds of millions of years and beginning with the oldest sea-dwelling creatures, followed by land-crawlers, land-walkers, hoppers, jumpers, soarers, flappers & flyers.

Evolution theory, updated over the past 150+ years, explains how this could happen.
The theory implies both possibilities and limitations on what evolution can & has done.
Turning wolves into birds or fish is not among those possibilities.
