Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.

So I’m struggling to understand the practicality of this concept. Why does it matter whether duck.constructor === Bird show false, and how does it impact the usability of an object?

  **Your code so far**

function Dog(name) {
this.name = name;
}

// Only change code below this line
Dog.prototype = {
constructor: Dog,
numLegs: 4,
eat() {
  console.log("nom nom nom");
},
describe() {
  console.log("My name is " + this.name);
}
};
