Diva Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 (edited) Well if no one objects I will post a question to keep us rolling while we wiat for FHRPNO GOOGLING!! I will know if you have googled What are the four breeds of Belgian Shepherds? What were three capacities they served in during World War 1? An what are three capacities they serve in today? Well the first bit is easy - Groenendael, Tervueren, Malinois and Laekenois. I'll have another guess at the second bit - messenger dog, guard dog, and maybe mascot (don't think they had bomb dogs then did they? ) - and I remember a photo of one wearing a first aid symbol, not sure what war, but maybe ambulance dog? and another guess for today - explosives detection, drug detection, guard dog, police dog, herder, customs/border protection, search and rescue, cadaver, companion, show and all around handsome dog, efs Edited December 23, 2010 by Diva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FHRP Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 (edited) You left of their original function, herding dog! Oops, I see it now, did you add it or am I going blind Glad you listed the four, there's no way I could spell them without looking them up Edited December 23, 2010 by FHRP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

World War 1 is wrong the answer is - messenger dog (you got this one), ambulance dog (upon a 2nd look you also got this one) and machine gun hauler You go Diva while we wait Edited December 23, 2010 by Keira&Phoenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diva Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 (edited) You go Diva while we wait You'd better go, I have to dash off again! edited to add: machine gun hauler would be a pretty bad job, esp for a relatively lightly-built herding breed!

RuralPug Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Geez this thread moves fast! Okay I am entitled to ask - yay! I got the Coolie/Kelpie one right! Here we go - not sure if google will help you with this - am looking at a plate in old dog book right now. Clue - it is a British book, published 1950. My question: What is the most distinguishing feature of an Abyssinian Sand Terrier? (picture tomorrow I promise!) Reduced to quoting myself! Not hairlessness or ears K&P - both breed traits though, well done! Come on you don't have to be Einstein...I gave an important clue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
