I think your mostly right. Finnish language has prepositions like "below", "over", "above" but lot of prepositions just happen by conjucating the word. Also prepositions appear in few different ways based on the sound of the word, so "(to) dog" is "koira(lle)" but "(to) home" is "koti(in)".
It gets more complicated when you start mixing other attributes like ownership, so "(our) dogs" becomes "koira(mme)", then you can combine both of them saying "to our dogs", so it becomes "koir(illemme)". Then you can add in time references, conditionals, a question and you get lot of those others forms, like "koirammeko" which translates to "our dogs?"

Perhaps the latter would be better off translated as "(in to) home", or perhaps the former as "(for) dog".
