[edit] Fighting Dogs
There is no reason to include links to fighting dogs or the list of fighting dog breeds on this page. It is simply not relevant. Dsurber 04:29, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Therapy, Service, Detection, Guard Dogs
The edits made by User:Fastifex added several job descriptions that were already covered by existing job descriptions. There was a description of Service and Therapy dogs, already covered. A brief mention of war dogs which is subsumed by detection and guard dogs. And a mention of fighting dogs which is not a job. If anyone insists, we can use the same mechanism used in dog sports and add a link to dog fighting to the See Also section. Dsurber 13:08, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Question:
Can we add information about the training and sale of working dogs. I'm not able to find much except that private breeders and private trainers do the work then sell the dog. Price unknown. Where do these working dogs come from and how do they get hired to a job? jkatian
- Depends on the job. Very structured supply process for the US Military, etc. Less so for most everything else, much of build on relationships with areas of interest.--Woody Taylor 14:46, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
