The Dogblr Masterlist got an update!

I looked at every single blog and categorized them in either active, inactive or deactivated.

Active: has posted recently or last activity was within 2025.

Inactive: Hasn't posted since 2024, only made like 1 post in 2025 or declared themselves as inactive.

Deactivated: I wasn't sure if I should leave them or just delete them from the list but here we are. URLs that have no blog anymore.

Oh, and I linked the blogs to their URLs so it's easier for you to click.

Please notify me if your breed isn't correct or if you'd like to be added.

Blacker Sheep. The brilliant project of Lernert & Sander who trimmed a sheep just like a poodle.

HEY. HOW DID YOU GET SO BIG.

WHAT KIND OF DOG ARE YOU.

I HAVE QUESTIONS FOR YOU.

[video description: a Dalmatian following a horse that is white with black spots. end description.]

[weaselle]

this is, btw, probably extremely fulfilling for this dog.

Dalmatians were supposed to be hunting dogs at the founding of the breed, but what they mostly became bred and used for was carriage dogs.

A carriage dog is a dog whose job it is to run alongside a horse and carriage and prevent anyone from interfering with it. They were excellent carriage security. Nobody could reach up and grab the horses reins, nobody could try to open the carriage door - you could even park with peace of mind

This is also how they became known as firehouse dogs, because fire trucks used to look like this

and i imagine having a carriage dog was very useful to prevent even well-meaning members of the public from doing anything stupid to the equipment or horses while you fought a fire.

So the dog in the video is probably feeling very Job Well Done about his activity

Icelandic horses are so fun, Icelanders were like “We need a very strong horse to deal with the rugged landscape and inhospitable conditions. We must create the best all terrain vehicle.“ and the result was this:

And they absolutely get the job done but they look like stuffed animals.

(that's part of the job)

Good news! The only dog breed native to Iceland, the Icelandic Sheepdog, ALSO get to look like stuffed animals!

Stealing this from a competitive obedience group because the answers have been fascinating. I would love to hear elaborations on methods/reasonings if you're up for it!

Do you use a bait/treat pouch?

Yes

No

I don't work with animals/see results

Birders have "spark birds" = the first bird species that sparks a deep interest or passion for birdwatching.

What's your spark dog (breed)?

im a bit broke after buying my meds and wont be getting paid until later next week, so im taking a few of these to help with food and bus money.

but yea, just DM with ur reference(s) and wait for me to give you the green light before sending any money! im gonna be working on these for the whole weekend.

if you own a pet and I follow you on tumblr there is a 90%+ chance that at some point in casual conversation I have brought up your pet to someone by saying, like, “oh yeah I have a friend with that breed” or “my friend with the (dog/cat breed) posted this picture” or whatever bc that’s just easier to say than ‘person on tumblr I follow and sometimes leave comments on.’ which is also to say, you all also have full permission to refer to me as your friend also, if you want to show someone a picture of my pets or tell them something. I don’t care if we’re never talked. give me a fun backstory. ride or die.

Aska really wanted to take this stick home. Alas, after telling her no, she remained quite unimpressed:

An Assortment of Shepherds

A bit of a redraw of a print I did like a year ago. I got some really fun breed suggestions to fill out the sheet…. I am a fan of the Basque shepherd! Pretty lads
