"Los perros" is either all male dogs or a gender mixed group of dogs. "Las perras" is a group of all female dogs. So in this case we know that all of the dogs are female. It is like the usage of "las niñas" for a group of all girls, but "los niños" can be all boys or a mixed group of boys and girls.
‘yo como’ = “I eat”
‘tu comes’ = “You [familiar singular] eat”
‘{él | ella | Usted} come’ = “{he | she} eats | you [formal singular] eat”
‘nosotros comemos’ = “we eat”
‘vosotros coméis’ = “you [familiar plural] eat”
‘{ellos | ellas | Ustedes} comen’ = “they [masculine] | they [feminine] | You [formal plural]} eat”
