Favourite dogs from your homeland?

[ravennr]

I have quite the bloodline. Irish, Scottish, Yugoslavic, Hungarian.
I was searching through some things and found a few dog breeds that are Yugoslavic in origin, and it got me thinking to make this thread. I think it could be pretty fun.

So here's my favourite "homeland" breeds:

Yugoslavia; Sarplaninac:

Scotland; West Highland Terrier

Ireland; Irish Terrier

*Down*

Hungary; Vizsla

Your turn.

Germany: German Shepherds of course!

Scotland: Collie

Ireland: Irish Setter

and I know nothing of dog breeds that are from Austria.

The Welsh Springer Spaniel reminds me a ton of the Irish Red and White Spaniel, another of my Irish favourites.
