Re: Labradoodle, Schnoodle, Cockapoo, Spoodle, Yorkiepoo

hi – mastiff type dogs were used as war dogs by the romans – they were all kitted up in armour with neck and leg spikes – cued to the horses too and a well trained one was said to be worth it’s weight in gold – famous line from Julius Caesar…. ‘cry havoc and let loose the dogs of war’ , many believe that the large breeds we have now are a result of the roman dogs being crossed with local breeds throughout the world during their time of invasion.
