The Working Dog

29 07 2006

A fact of Australian life is that while there are many pet dogs there are also many dogs who very literally work for a living.

This wonderful article in Slate in actually American but it gives you a really good idea what being a working dog is all about. It’s not especially long but I know I had a much better understanding of what working dogs where about by the end of it. As a bonus is it quick heartwarming in the way it is written.
