# 🐶 YOLOv8 Dog Detector

This repository contains a finetuned **YOLOv8** model for **detecting dogs** in images.

- **Model:** `best.pt`
- **Dataset:** Google Open Images v7 (~4,000 dog instances)
- **Task:** Object Detection (1 class: `dog`)

---

## 📦 Installation

```bash

pip install ultralytics

```

## 🚀 CLI Usage (recommended for quick testing)
```bash

yolo detect predict \

    model=best.pt \

    source="assets/runs/detect/val/example1.jpg" \

    imgsz=640 \

    conf=0.25 \

    save=True

```

Batch infer on folder
```bash

yolo detect predict model=best.pt source="images_folder/" imgsz=640 conf=0.25 save=True

```


## 🐍 Python Usage
```bash

from ultralytics import YOLO



# Load model

model = YOLO("best.pt")



# Run prediction

results = model.predict(

    source="assets/runs/detect/val/example1.jpg", 

    conf=0.25, 

    imgsz=640

)



# Display or save result

results[0].show()   # display

# results[0].save() # save to file

```
