Talk:Glen of Imaal Terrier

Vulnerable Native Breed

This breed is classed in Britain as a VNB - a breed which originated in the UK but now has registration numbers with the Kennel Club of less then 300 puppies per year. .,mf.g,dmf/gs;.fl,gmsg;lm:Lmxbg:lmrsg:LMDg I'm a Canadian teenager on a gap year before Uni and I'm really interested in this. Would anyone like a VNB paragraph/link on this page? I can write it, but am ignorant about formatting etc. Plus, I'm trying to put together a whole collection on all 29 breeds on this list, including history and so on, using Wikipedia as one of my many sources. If you can help, or are interested at all, please contact me either on my talk page or at green_ied_dragon@hotmail.com

Thanks for the encouragement. This is my first wikipedia entry, so your help is appreciated. I do plan on expanding and completing the article but full time work and part time school keep me busy a lot. SteveS | 17:27, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Tell me about it! :-) If you want to know a little more about general standards and strategies that we've been using for dog articles (although you done good already), visit the Dog breeds project and browse around if you haven't already. Elf | Talk 17:38, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Hey guys, my family has what we are about 99% sure is a Glen of Imaal. This article looks good. I'm sure there is plenty more stuff that we could find. Good start. NPPyzixBlan 18:50, July 30, 2005 (UTC)

Bear-style sitting?

Good job SteveS. A relative has a "Glennie", and although I'm not too versed in dog breeds, is it a notable thing about Glen of Imaals that they can sit on their hind legs (like a bear) with straightened spine (i.e. somewhat like "at attention") compared to other breeds?.

Image example, a bit like this but with the front legs up in the air by the chest. Scoo 16:24, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Number of Glennies?

There was an article http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article4988462.ece about how rear glennies are. There was mentioned that there are only less than 1000 glennies worldwide. I wondered, because there should be around 500 of them in Finland only! Really 50% of world population in small Finlad?! Can't belive it. 91.153.23.177 (talk) 20:32, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
