The Dog Touched the Clothes

Question
If a dog touches clothes on the road with its body, does it cause a major impurity, and must it be purified seven times?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is recommended to wash the impurity of a dog seven times, and it is obligatory three times; as it was reported from Abu Huraira that he used to wash three times, and God knows best.
