Steps to reproduce:
Summon some sheep
Summon one wolf away from the sheep
Immediately switch to bones and tame the wolf
If the timing is right, the wolf will become a dog, but it will be dark red with angry eyes as long as a sheep or fox is nearby.
It will sit when clicked like a dog, but it will become dark red and attack any sheep/fox nearby. If there are no sheep/foxes nearby, it will become normal texture (dog), but it will become red again if any sheep come close.
This also seems to work with foxes instead of sheep. It requires precise timing to perform.
On the screen capture, the "dog" is sitting down but it has a solid dark dark color and angry eyes.

This issue still affects the latest 1.21.51 Hotfix according to this reddit post below:
someone had the same glitch or very similar and posted a video here:

You can see the dog looking normal at first.
when a sheep is placed next to him, he becomes red and angry (but still sitting)
when the player commands the dog to walk, the dog attacks the sheep.
