=== Tie-in Material Information ===
* ''According to ''[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]'' (a non-canonical piece of merchandise published in 1979):''
: Since the mythical days of humanity on the planet [[Kobol (TOS)|Kobol]], the Daggit has been man's friend and companion. A warm-blooded quadruped, related to such wild species as the [[Equellus|Equellan]] [[lupus]], the Daggit has been domesticated for thousands of yahren. Daggits were probably first used for hunting, but with the advance of civilization, they became beloved pets to humans. Each of the Colonies developed its own varieties of Daggits, so that by the time of the Final Destruction, over two thousand different breeds were officially recognized by the Intercolonial Kennel Association. <ref>{{cite_book|last=Kraus|first=Bruce|authorlink=|authorlinkurl=|coauthors=|year=1979|title=[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]|publisher=|location=|id=|pages=33}}</ref>
