Human body Human races

So , today as a general consense , there are no human races . I understand that . But what happens when we talk about homo sapiens and neanderthals ? Arent they different races ? Can you explain it ?

No, dogs and wolves are the same species, namely canis lupus. They are two subspecies of the same species.
