Police Work
One thing we must have all been fascinated with as kids will definitely be police dogs. cThese dogs play multiple roles such as enforcing public order, detection, search and rescue, and cadaver detection. We usually see the breed of German Shepherds as a police k-9, other breeds are used in the police forces – Malinois, Labs, Bloodhounds and Beagles among others.
War Dogs
Dogs of war have fought with soldiers in every conflict. They have taken part in both foreign and domestic conflicts, wherein some are actually ‘listed’ while some are not. Wards dogs serve so many jobs so one cannot just give a single purpose of theirs. They are made to send messages, guard perimeters, attack enemies, detection, and even boosting morale!
Dogs For Carting
There are so many dogs that are used for this purpose. Several breeds have undergone special training to master the art of pulling carts. There are some dogs that are just better at this job than others. The breed of dogs that are excellent in carting is Bernese Mountain Dogs, Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs, Huskies or other working breeds.
Rat Extermination
So what do you understand by the word “Terrier”? Well, this word originated from Latin and its meaning roughly translates to “of the earth”. So we all know how terriers are by nature. These dogs are fearless and feisty and belong to the smaller breeds of dogs. They have always been good at keeping lands free from pests ever since time immemorial.
Entertainment Dogs
On the topic of entertainment, we all know that the number of pups that have entertained us is a large figure. Whether it was on television, we saw Lassie, Rin, Tin Tin and even Eddie from “Frasier” or even on the movie screens, we had “Hooch”, “Beethoven” and many others. We all know how jolly these dogs make us feel. Without dogs, life would have been so empty!
