I mean you could literally say that about any other disney character. There’s a bit in the 2017 Ducktales where a character sees Dewie and Webby feeding the ducks at a pond. She was utterly befuddled.
Consider Mickey and Minnie are mice. Mickey has a dog, which somehow is appropriately sized for a mouse, while Goofy is larger than Mickey and closer to dog size. Of course this doesn’t explain how Donald, a duck, is similar in size to Mickey.

Pluto is a dog and Goofy is an anthropomorphic dog. Similar and related, but not the same. Kind of like a human with a pet monkey.

Well, you asked.

Some cartoons are like that. For instance, Huckleberry Hound sometimes gets chased by non-anthropomorphic dogs.

Pluto is a “dog” while Goofy is a “Dawg”

Why does Donald Duck wear a shirt but no pants but always wraps a towel around his waist when he gets out of the shower?

There are higher and lower primates – why can’t there be higher and lower canines? It’s not that complicated even without cartoon logic.

Goofy’s original name was Dippy Dawg.

Because Goofy passed the Turing test, and Pluto didn’t.
