Take, for example, the number of horses that were "killed in action" in WWI.Cornish Dreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11531138997940949329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6577115379069352960.post-78608433319499393672007-11-13T10:01:00.000+01:002007-11-13T10:01:00.000+01:00jmb,There are many more stories about heroic dogs ...jmb,<BR/>There are many more stories about heroic dogs and I will write about them sometime. And yes there are many dogs on active duty today.<BR/>As a small country, Belgium has 3 dogs working in Afghanistan at present. I met them before they left. They are all three Malinois shepherd dogs.<BR/>Also think as VV said of all the dogs who do rescue work. Remember the dogs who seek out bedbugs as I mentioned in a previous post.<BR/>I think the whole dog world is fascinating.<BR/>A little story on this: once when I flew into JFK with one of my daughters who was about 6 at the time and as we were waiting for our luggage to come through, a woman in an official uniform with a Beagle came up to us and asked us where we had come from. My daughter was absolutely fascinated by the cute doggy. I was unconfortable as the dog started sniffing my shoulderbag. I was asked to empty out my bag there and then. I got seriously concerned. The woman asked if I had any "items of food". Travelling with a young child, I had a supply of apples and biscuits and small cartons of fruit juice. I was asked to walk over to the incinerator with her to have them "exterminated". My daughter never got to pat the dog.Eurodoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03181704119272387177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6577115379069352960.post-47252182044727885562007-11-13T09:27:00.000+01:002007-11-13T09:27:00.000+01:00Wonderful post.

I guess there are not to many animals involved now (or maybe there are, I don't know)in wartime activities but there were lots of them in the First World War, especially horses and donkeys and more dogs too.jmbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563252743976699923noreply@blogger.com
