The German Shepherd (German: Deutscher Schäferhund , ] ) is a breed of medium to large-sized working dog that originated in Germany.
 The breed's officially recognized name is German Shepherd Dog in the English language (sometimes abbreviated as "GSD").
 The breed is also known as the Alsatian in Britain and Ireland.
 The German Shepherd is a relatively new breed of dog, with their origin dating to 1899.
 As part of the Herding Group, German Shepherds are working dogs developed originally for herding sheep.
 Since that time however, because of their strength, intelligence, trainability, and obedience, German Shepherds around the world are often the preferred breed for many types of work, including disability assistance, search-and-rescue, police and military roles, and even acting.
 The German Shepherd is the second-most registered breed by the American Kennel Club and fourth-most registered breed by The Kennel Club in the United Kingdom.
The West Siberian Laika or "WSL", is a breed of hunting dog and a breed of spitz type.
 Russian publications indicate that the term West Siberian Laika loosely applied to hunting dogs originating with the Mansi and Khanty people in Ural and West Siberia, but there were no standards or registrations of WSL as such until 1930.
 Then WWll disrupted it for a while, but "systematic breeding with registrations" resumed after the war ended, in 1946.
 This was the time the breed began taking modern shape.
 Before that hunters only knew of Mansi Laika and Khanty Laika.
 In early 1960 many hunters in Ural still preferred the term Mansi Laika, when speaking of West Siberian Laika.
 In Russian language, the term Laika originated from the word "layat" that means to bark.
 The word Laika simply means "barker".
 Any hunting Laika is a bark pointer (pointing at animal of interest by barking and staying with the animal ).
 It is a versatile dog depending on use and environment, but in certain parts of the country they have become more specialized.
Conformation in dogs refers solely to the externally visible details of a dog's structure and appearance, as defined in detail by each dog breed's written breed standard.
 A dog that "conforms" to most of the items of description in its individual breed standard is said to have "good conformation".
 Unlike equine conformation, there are no fixed rules for dog conformation, as dogs are the most variable in appearance of any animals ("Phenotypic variation among dog breeds, whether it be in size, shape, or behavior, is greater than for any other animal").
 Instead, conformation in dogs is based on the dog type from which the breed developed, along with many details that have been added to the breed standard for purposes of differentiation from other breeds, for working reasons, or for enhancing the beauty of the animals from the viewpoint of the fanciers who wrote the breed standards.
The German longhaired pointer (GLP) is a breed of dog.
 Developed in Germany, it is used as a multipurpose gundog.
 It is closely related to its cousins, the German Shorthaired Pointer (GSP), the German Wirehaired Pointer (GWP) and the Large Münsterländer, which was previously part of the breed.
The Alaunt is an extinct breed of dog, with the original breed having existed in central Asia and Europe from ancient times through the 17th century.
 The Alaunt breed had three distinct phenotypes: Alaunt Veantre, Alaunt Boucherie and the Alaunt Gentile.
 They all were large, short coated dogs of varying head-types.
 The former two resembled the molosser type dogs much like the present-day Dogo Argentino or like the Caucasian Shepherd Dog except with short hair and a mesocephalic head which made them excellent large-game hunters.
 The Alaunt was originally bred by the Alani tribes, the nomads of Indo-European Sarmatian ancestry who spoke an Iranian language.
 The Alans were known as superb warriors, herdsmen, and breeders of horses and dogs.
 The Alans bred their dogs for work and developed different strains within the breed for specific duties.
 The breed was further developed in Spain, France, Germany, England, and in Italy.
The Braque Saint-Germain (FCI No. 115) (translated into English as the St. Germain Pointing Dog) is a medium-large breed of dog, a versatile hunter used for hunting as a gun dog and pointer as well as for hunting other small game.
 "Braque" is a term meaning pointing dogs.
 The breed was created around 1830 by crossing English and French pointing type dogs.
The Vizsla is a dog breed originating in Hungary, which belongs under the FCI group 7 (Pointer group).
 The Hungarian or Magyar Vizsla are sporting dogs and loyal companions, in addition to being the smallest of the all-round pointer-retriever breeds.
 The Vizsla's medium size is one of the breed's most appealing characteristics as a hunter of fowl and upland game, and through the centuries the Vizsla has held a rare position among sporting dogs – that of household companion and family dog.
The East European Shepherd (VEO) (in Russian: Восточно-европейская овчарка (ВЕО)) —is a breed of dog that was developed in the 1930-1950s based on German Shepherd Dogs to create a larger cold-resistant breed for military use, police work and border guard duties in the Soviet Union.
 VEOs are also used as guide dogs for the blind and there are VEO therapy dogs.
 This breed is popular in Russia where it entered a public culture and acquired a legendary status as an extremely smart and loyal dog devoted to their owners.
 The breed is well known in other ex-Soviet Union republics.
 In the West, the East-European Shepherd is a rare breed that is not well known: information about the breed on online sources, in English, is limited and often incorrect or distorted.
The German Wirehaired Pointer is a medium to large-sized griffon type breed of dog developed in the 19th century in Germany for hunting.
 It became a leading gun dog in Germany in the later part of the 20th century.
 It is the result of the careful mixing and crossing of the griffon, German Shorthaired Pointer,Deutscher Stichelhaar, Deutscher Kurzhaar, and the hunting Pudelpointer in the late 19th century.
