Solution

The correct option is B dog's
The possessive case of a singular noun is formed by adding an apostrophe at the end of the noun followed by the letter "s". In this case, the word in bracket -dog, is a singular noun, whose possessive form is "dog's'".
Hence the correct answer is option C.
Options A, B and D are incorrect as they do not follow the pattern mentioned above i.e apostrophe followed by letter "s".
