Too bad you weren't looking for insects or dinosaurs though, there's lots of good scientific names for them.

Species and genus are defined scientifically. Some scientist have slightly different standards but the acceptable definition is species is the smallest unit that can produce fertile offspring and is reproductively isolated from other groups and fundamentally similar in structure. Species that are similar in appearance but cannot produce fertile offspring are of the same genus or subgenus. Sometimes species such as your white and black dog might be, are thought to be different species. Then when they produce fertile offspring they are reclassified as the same species.
