Dogs in 1915

Post by 5_o_clock_tea »

Found this interesting link: https://archive.org/details/dogsofallnations00masorich

It is amazing to see the evolution of breeds over time, and most of them have put on a lot of weight (look at the English bulldog now and then)! Aside from the longer beard, the standard schnauzer looks very similar to what it was a century ago. :o3

Thanks for the link!

An interesting read.

Didn't have any giant schnauzers in it though :(

That's fascinating to see. Can't help but wonder how they'll look like a hundred years from now.

That was very interesting. The welsh terrier and the scottish (shetland) look nothing like todays dogs. Have you ever see a corded poodle ? I loved the poem at the end
