what i have been noticing my redirect to search on unknown domain names has been failing more and more, cause is that there are too many domains other so if I type "domain names dog", browser can't send me to google anymore to find if there are domain names .dog, I just get host not found error.

Domains can't have spaces, so if you type as such, you'll still get a search in any browser (that has search-in-URL-bar enabled, of course).

What kind of realistic search query without spaces and ending in ".dog" do you see yourself doing?

The DOG file type is primarily associated with 'Dogz' by Ubisoft Entertainment. Holds the graphics and functions of the pet.
