Creature Awaits #187
Each week I plan to feature an amazing creature, admiring God's fantastic artistry. Hopefully it’ll brighten someone’s day to see something new and interesting if they haven’t seen it before. : )
For this December, we're featuring animals from the Middle East. Who knows, maybe the Christ Child saw some of these! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays whatever you believe! - 💕

The Canaan Dog
Scientific Name: Canis familiaris (used for all dog breeds)
A.K.A: The Kelev K'Naani, The Israel Canaan Dog, The Bedouin Sheep Dog and The Palestinian Pariah Dog
Region: Throughout the Middle East
Size: About 18"-24" (45cm-60cm) tall at the shoulder
Interesting Notes: One of the oldest pariah (ownerless, but considered half-domesticated, half-wild) dogs in the world, some estimate this breed at being almost 9,000 years old. Tradition states that these beautiful dogs have guarded the camps and livestock of Bedouins for thousands of years, and that many of those in the wild now were sadly and unwillingly left behind by Israeli families at the time of the Diaspora. Today, a number have been taken in as pets, with Israeli Cynologist and Professor Dr. Rudolphina Menzel defining the breed standard in 1966.

Part 6 of my poll adventure fic. Links: the beginning, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5.
It's mid-day Wednesday (at least for my time), which means a new part of my poll adventure fic, because I've been here for over a year and still don't know how to use this site effectively. :D (Oh wait, here, I made a poll about tumblr timing.)
---
Valerie walked toward Vlad through the rubble, hugging a hissing and clawing Maddie against her armor. "Found him," she said proudly, smiling up at Vlad. "Is there anything else I can do for you?"
"Actually, there is. There's a malevolent ghost loose in Amity Park, posing a serious risk to my health, as well as to the city. I need him contained and brought to me."
Oh, cheese sticks with marinara dipping sauce! He had meant to do the responsible thing here—not ask a fourteen-year-old child who couldn't even hold a cat properly to risk her life in his stead.
...He really had become too accustomed to avoiding anything unpleasant.
"Sure thing, Mayor Masters!"
Maddie squirmed out of Valerie's hold with an angry yowl and ran off.
Well, he could still work with Valerie. ...If he truly wanted to. He was unlikely to succeed on his own, anyhow, if this older version of Daniel actually was as powerful as he'd heard.
But did he truly want to be a part of this endeavor? He was already dreading it, with only the thought.
He recalled what the older Daniel had said—that he let his emotions hold too much sway, and that in turn caused his plans to fail.
Which had been exactly the case when he'd felt some level of compassion for that ghost.
Thinking purely objectively, Vlad could still use the ghost if he could get him back under his control. And if Vlad were to have some part in the ghost's capture—in saving Amity Park—it would boost his ratings. He did need to keep his position as mayor of Amity Park for his contingency plans.
"Valerie, dear. Why don't we work together? I'm sure it's just misplaced guilt, but I can't help but feel somehow responsible for this situation. Ridiculous, I know. However, working with you on his capture would ease my poor conscience."
"Oh... uh, you've never suggested this before," Valerie said uncertainly, shifting her weight from one foot to the other, as though she was trying to think of some way that poor old 'Mayor Masters' could work with her. "But if that's what you want."
'Cheerleader' isn't, ah, a literal cheerleader. (Don't make me dress him up in a skirt.) It just means... like, advertising and cheering her on. More of a cheer-leader (...which is probably an even more literal meaning actually).

Israel's Canaan Dog: The Breed That Owes Its Success to Rudolphina Menzel
Rudolphina Menzel (née Waltuch, 1891–1973), was a Viennese-born, Jewish scientist whose pioneering research on canine psychology, development, and behavior fundamentally shaped the ways dogs came to be trained, cared for, and understood. Between the two world wars, Menzel was known throughout Europe as one of the foremost breeders and trainers of police dogs and served as a sought-after consultant at Kummersdorf, the German military dog training institute in Berlin. She was also a fervent Zionist who was responsible for inventing the canine infrastructure in what came to be the State of Israel and for training hundreds of dogs to ["""]protect Jewish lives and property["""] in... Palestine. [Training dogs as a tool for the criminal settling of Palestine] became Menzel’s unique kind of Zionist mission. Detailed and insightful, "Canine Pioneer: The Extraordinary Life of Rudolphina Menzel", edited by Susan Martha Kahn, brings to light an important piece of history.

If you merged the dogs you own into one dog do you think it would be a fantastic or horrifying dog? Like if it had personality traits from Lambchop, Noodle, Ella, and Blue, what would it be like? And also what do you think it would look like
There is really a best case scenario and a worst case scenario here
Best case would be a sweet dog who adores people and other dogs but is a little socially stunted and overenthusiastic sometimes... worst case would be a dog who only bonded with one or two people and YELLED LOUDLY at all other people and was way too willing to Throw Down with other dogs in its territory... unfortunately it would have prey drive out the wazoo either way. And yell a ton. Oh God.
