grammar question! is this correct "my and mark's dog"?
i know it's better to just use "our dog". but is "my and [another person's name]" a good alternative?

My and Mark's dog doesn't flow very well. I think our dog would be better.

No. Always put yourself last. Mark and my dog. It still sounds odd, but if it was Mark and Suzy's dog it sounds ok, so Mark and my dog is what it should be
Merp, Mark is not mean so never say "me and Mark" (me an' Mark) "That dog belongs to Mark and me" is correct
You only use one apostrophe s at the end of the list op people. Since "my" is already possessive, an apostrophe s is not required here

It would be "Mark's and my" dog, if anything.

"The dog that belongs to me and Mark" might work better, although it could sound a little strange depending on context.
