Did you Know.......?







Did you know that..........................

1. The Keeshond will bark their heads off at suspicious sounds but is more likely to welcome a burglar in and show him around the house than to bite him.
2. The Greyhound is the fastest of dogs, with a top speed of 45 mph.
3. Confusingly, the Australian Shepherd is a American creation.
4. In the 17th century the Great Pyrenees imposing appearance attracted the attention of French nobility, and became known as "the Royal Dog of France".
5. Not just a sighthound,the Ibizan Hound was developed as an all-purpose hunting dog that works by sight, hearing, and smell.
6. The German Shepherd makes an ideal working companion, helping people in distress, assisting people with disabilities,working alongside the police and military, and proving itself as a vigilant guard dog.
Pretty cool stuff, huh?
