Ten Most Loyal Dogs

     Dogs is Human's best friend, I think it's not an excessive statement. We can see so many film about dogs' loyalty, for example Hachiko Monogatari and Lessie. But there are some dogs which have a really big loyalty, in my second post I'll show you "Ten Most Loyal Dogs".

Collie

     Collie is a types of dogs which came from Scotland. They are really tame, clever, but sometimes they are too protective to their owner. We can teach them easily how to shake hand, rolling or sit. But they are not too friendly to the other people or pets, because they can be jealous easily.
     Collie has two variants based on length of hair. The first variant is called Rough (long hair) and the second is Smooth (short hair). Based on their popularity, collie is divided into two variants. They are American and England.
     Do you know : Collie is the cleverest dogs in this world, they can understand 200 words in a short time. I can tell you so many story about Collie because actually I have this kind of dogs. And it is interesting!!

German Shepherd

This kind of dog is really enthusiastic with everything, so it can make Brittany hard to be trained. But their loyalty to their owner is so big, Brittany always follow their owner whenever they go. They also have a special 'eyes' which can make us falling in love with them.
    Brittany's characteristic (
enthusiastic) make them used as hunters' partner. They can helps the hunter (their owner) to find some deers or squirrel and they can protect their owner from bear or tiger.

 Beagle
