i'm so lazy have some really boaring work to do so think i will just start a wee game.
ok here is what we have to do.... think of a breed and give a clue as to what it may be now try and make the clue a little bit hard possibly a bit of history on the breed so we learn about the origions of varous breeds along the way(god i sound like a teacher!!!). Here is an example; this cheecky little dog is named after a famous reverand so likes things a little holy!!!
Obviuosly as this is me the answer is the "Parsons Jack Russell Terrier" named after the reverand Jack Russell who first bread the line of JRTS.
Here we go lets try this one for really if needed i will try and give other cluses without giving away the breed who ever gets it right has to then take a turn.
This breed have also in the past past been known under the following names; St johns Dog, Lesser newfoundland, or a Black Water dog.
Good luck |

ok here we go this dog dates back to the 18th century when the first European settlers found with the Khoisan tribes a domesticaed dog. A serviceable hunting dog, tough, resistant to disease, intelligent enough to avoid crocodiles and snakes, with tick repellent smooth coat, tight paw pads to protect against thorns and rough terrain, brave enough to face a lion or any other big game, but fast enough to stay out of harm's way of horns, claws and teeth.
Any ideas?? |
