Edit: 84085 is the black dog 83188pb01 and 84056 is the tan one 83188pb02

On BrickLink, we try and use the actual number molded on the part for our numbers
or alternates. LEGO Design IDs do not use the mold number for most decorated
items. They instead designate a number for the mold and pattern together.

This is different from the Element ID which identifies the mold, pattern, and
color of the part.

Jennifer explained things rather well already, so I do not have much to add.
(H/T Jen)

I will just simply restate that BrickLink uses the numbers molded into the parts
to number items rather than use the design numbers that the LEGO Group assigns
to the individual decorated parts.

As with all things, this may change in the future, but there are no current plans
to deviate from the process that has always been used to number items here.

Cheers,
Randy

It's frustrating when those numbers will turn up a result on Lego's Bricks
& Pieces but not here, with no obvious way to connect the two.
