[edit] Vulnerable Native Breed/Under Threat

This breed is classed in Britain as a VNB - a breed which originated in the UK but now has registration numbers with the Kennel Club of less then 300 puppies per year.

I'm a Canadian teenager on a gap year before Uni and I'm really interested in this. Would anyone like a VNB paragraph/link on this page? I can write it, but am ignorant about formatting etc. Plus, I'm trying to put together a whole collection on all 29 breeds on this list, including history and so on, using Wikipedia as one of my many sources. If you can help, or are interested at all, please contact me either on my talk page or at green_ied_dragon@hotmail.com

[edit] Plagiarism

Tnis whole description, as with most of the dog breed pages, has been totally lifted from various breed pages from AKC and other places. Plagiarism at its worst.

The contributer is quite correct - big chunks have been lifted. The copyvio stuff is too woven in to clean up the history. I am copyvio tagging and will put the bits that look OK in the temp article. The original article needs deleting and replacing. TerriersFan 22:49, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
