http://www.elisabeth-hof.de/hund/ima...a-20030310.jpg
yes thats it. your turn
Another breed from Europe. Dogs of this breed have "earrings", long black tips on their ears and they need 2 year before their coat matures. One dog of this breed once saved a prince by waking up the prince in the night during an assassination attempt.
is it a Kooikerhondje?
Yes it is :)
This dog’s life expectancy is between 12 and 14 years. It’s believed that this breed has evolved from ancient, corded herding dogs from the Hungarian plains, which were bred with other small, long-coated mountain herders. It was brought to Europe over 1,000 years ago. Popular in its home country, it’s generally kept as a household companion, although it remains an excellent herder. It can also work in obedience, tracking agility and therapy.
Puli?
no
komondor?
no
Is it the Australian
shepherd?

Is it the Polish Lowland Sheepdog?
yes it is.
your turn
k, i'll find info for one....
This breed's life expectancy is about 13 to 14 years, but may be more. It once worked on the canal boats of Flanders chasing vermin. It's name means " little captain." It has an uncertain background, some say the breed descends from an ancient breed of black Belgian Sheepdogs; others suggest it's a member of the Spitz family; and others argue that it was a cross between a terrier-type breed and the German Pomeranian. It makes an affectionate family pet but can be suspicious and noisy with strangers.
is it a Schipperke
Wow, did i give to much info or are you really good!? Yes, it's the Schipperke. Your turn!:)
What set it off for me when I first read it was that it is said to be a descendent of the Belgian Sheepdogs, since they do really look alike, it's just that I ddin't get on until today, nice discription though.....this game is fun because you learn stuff as well!
Yeah, they do look alike. Thanks!
This is a strong, nimble, lightly built, and beautiful dog. It has a glorious long double coat, which come in various different colours. By the 1700’s, the breed was completely developed, but wasn’t recognized in England till 1909, and in the US till 1911. This dog can be used for tracking, herding, watchdogging, guarding, agility, competitive obedience, and performing tricks.
Collie/Sheltie?
yes it's a sheltie.
I knew it was going to be too easy
ok, let's see.......This breed is respected and admired throughout the world for its versatility, intelligence, and loyalty. It has existed as a recognized breed for a relatively brief period of time compared to other dog breeds. The early ancestors of this breed were of several types suited to their environments. Coat length and texture, color, and build all varied but these types all possessed ruggedness, intelligence, soundness, and the ability to do specialized work.
With advances in transportation and communication came the forming of societies of herders and the first trends toward selective breeding of herding dogs, record keeping, and a gradual trend toward one type of dog which could work equally well under all conditions. In 1881, the first formal club, the "Phylax" society was formed but lasted only about three years.
hopefully this is enough info........
border collie
Nope, good guess tho....
German Shepherd Dog

YES! Your turn, it was a GSD, good job!
This is a Hungarian breed. After World War II, when Russians took control of Hungary, the native Hungarians feared all dogs of this breed would be killed by the Russians, because owning one was a symbol of aristocracy.
Puli? They are from Hungary..or Mudi?? Kuvasz??? hmm..still thinking.........
No, guess again... :D
More hint: it's a short haired breed
Hungarian Breeds? Only one I can think of, is it a Vizsla???
Yes, it is. Well done!
Your turn again now.
ok, Yea :) that was fun, ok, let's see, had my brain racking, lol, ummm.....ok....here we go.....This breed is a bundle of energy, a very intelligent and responsive dog. It excels at obedience, agility and much more. They thrive on praise, are sensitive and very trainable. Originated in Northumberland.(this might just give it away)....The breed is descended from old British droving breeds with some spaniel added. OK, any more will give it away, I may have already said too much.....
Good Luck and thanks!
Border Collie?
yup, your turn, too easy??
This breed of dog is good for apartment life and usually lives to about 12 years old. They are very clean, with no doggie odour and are not prone to fleas or ticks. They come in two different coat types. The breed was first exhibited in the West in the late 1800’s, but the first American breed club was not established until the late 1900’s. Full AKC recognition was also granted in late 1900’s.
chinese crested?
yes. i thought it would be too easy
