According to Newton's third - law, action - reaction forces act on two different objects and are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. In the case of a dog pulling on a rope toy and the owner pulling on the other side, these two forces act on the same object (the rope toy), not on two different objects in the action - reaction sense. The other options involve forces between two different objects where one object exerts a force and the other exerts a reaction force back.
