Why does extended thread's run() is chosen over Runnable's run()

public class AnonymousThreads { public static void main(String[] args) { Runnable r = new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { System.out.println("Cat"); } }; Thread t = new Thread(r){ public void run() { System.out.println("Dog"); } }; t.start(); } }

Ouput
Dog
