There is a girl who has a dog best friend she gives a sandwich to every morning on her way to school. She says hi to a horse on the way too and is almost always late because of these shenanigans. One day she discovers she can talk/communicate with animals. The afore-mentioned dog goes missing however and she uses her powers to find the dog.

Some more specific details I remember is that the dog had a birthday on July 4th qnd when he was younger he would think that the fireworks were in celebration of him. I also remember the horse was friends with the dog and complained to the girl that he would always tell the dog to stay out of trouble (before the dog went missing). There is also a cat and an ant (or some tiny insect like it) that helped the girl find the dog. The ant (or whatever insect it was) went to the girl's school to help her find the dog.

I read this book when I was younger; sometime between 2007-2013 (elementary school).
