No, not grumpy. As Bill said, just trying to steer the topic back to period photos so we don't get overwhelmed by everyone's pet pooch!
Thanks for posting yours Bill. Yes, the two Malinios and the little dog are pulling the sled. I think the little dog is the same one as in the photos in post #18 and I'm fairly sure one of the two Malinios is pictured with the basket of puppies too.

There was a tv series on the discovery or history channel called "dogs of war" all about the US marines useing dogs in ww2. Alot of them were shot after the war because they were too aggressive to go back into family homes. Well worth looking up.
