There's a pretty big bias for mechanical engineering components in the dataset- very few organic forms. It's one of the limitations we call out in the dataset card.

There are a few though! Try "dog" or "cookie cutter" for example.

It's CAD. Is there a legitimate reason to use that to engineer a dog? Doesn't make sense to me.

The initial ABC dataset is from public Onshape files -- clearly some people had a reason to design a dog model parametrically!

id guess for 3d printing.

not the best tool for the job of making something organically shaped, but maybe they also wanted to run some aerodynamics tests on it?
