One of the most popular dog breeds, Golden Retrievers come from Scotland. Though they are named for their striking golden color, their coats can range from cream/white to mahogany red.
White coat here requested by a friend, as her first dogo was a white golden retriever
Ok so I totally had this up and typed out to post yesterday but I guess I forgot to actually CLICK post. So….day late. Today is now a two dog day.
Doggust, day 12, the smallest retriever with the longest name, the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever 🦆🐕
Originating in Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia Canada, the Duck Tolling Retriever is the smallest of all retrievers. They are sometimes mistaken for small Golden Retrievers though.
Greyhounds are one of the fastest land animals on earth, maxing out start mph. They run in a gate called “double suspension gallop”, during which all four feet are off the ground twice in a stride.
Schnauzers are a German breed that have had many jobs since the 16th century, including working as ratters, guards for livestock and homes, and even war messengers.
I had…SO. Much. Trouble. With this dog. Every more dynamic pose I tried failed. I actually spent three times as long on this one as I have on any other Doggust drawing so far. Lots of restarts. In the end, I went with a more simple pose, referenced from an old photo I took of my brother’s late malamute mix. That worked nicely.
Great Danes come in many colors, but I didn’t know fawn harlequin was a thing until doing this. I am so totally in love, possible favorite dog coat color combo yet ❤️
Also, if you see this, and enjoy cheesy older movies about dogs, specifically Great Danes, go forth and find The Ugly Dachshund. That is all.
Australian shepherds don’t come from Australia, but rather from the United States, with ancestry from Spain. They are popular ranching and herding dogs.
