Solution

The correct option is B did it
Question tags transform a declarative or imperative sentence into interrogative. They are formed using the verb (auxiliary/helping verb) and pronoun (that indicates the subject) from the sentence.
The pronoun derived from the given sentence is 'it' ('it' refers to the dog) and 'didn't' is the verb.
Hence the question tag formed will be: did it (verb + pronoun).
The question tag is positive (i.e., did) when the sentence is negative (did not) and vice versa.
Hence option B is correct and A is incorrect.
Option C is incorrect because 'do' is not the verb used in the sentence.
Similarly, 'does' is not the correct form in the sentence, hence option D is also incorrect.
