A very interesting piece of text you have written. It is good to see that even Hitler had the "cute side" everyone who has a dog has.
Thanks again for all the kind words, I am glad that folk find it interesting...and its not just me!
Regards to all, whether you have two legs...or four...

Hi Carl, nice thread idea.
A few more. The WW1 pics allegedly show Fuchsl.
Eva with her terriers.
Cheers, Ade.
Had good advice? Saved money? Why not become a Gold Club Member, just hit the green "Join WRF Club" tab at the top of the page and help support the forum!
Thanks Ade,
Yes, that's little Fuchsl. I remember reading how the little fellow quite possibly saved young Adolf's life one day. As the story goes, his master was trying to teach him a trick of some sort, but the dog wouldn't come to attention, so Adolf chased after him (to reprimand him perhaps!), and at the moment when he left the area where he and some comrades where sitting, a shell exploded killing almost everybody there. One of those "Man of Destiny" moments perhaps...
Nice images you posted too Ade.
Regards,
Carl
I have red somewhere that his squad had a dog during WW1 (Fuchsi?) which Hitler would sometimes hit, but another source says that Hitler was against animal abuse, so I do not know what to believe :O
Nice thread, I have a collie myself
I bet that little terrier was a good ratter in the trenches.
Herr Hitler was a non smoking, non drinking vegitarian animal lover but not so good with people...
Thanks again JMM, and I am sorry to hear of the passing of your companion. They truly are a blessing, and should be treated accordingly.
Regards,
Carl
