Dogs are the true friends of man for many centuries. They accompany their masters everywhere, share with them joys and sorrows, work and rest. And here the service dogs are a special group of these animals, aimed at performing some specific functions, to help a person. For this, they must have a number of qualities that not all breeds can boast of.
Usually they are large, strong and strong animals, capable of long labor, long distance travel. They are indefatigable, obedient and smart. Any breed of long-haired service dogs, like smooth-haired, requires proper upbringing and long walks, and other types of exercise are also useful for them. They will be devoted to their master and will learn to fulfill all his wishes. However, dogs of this purpose are unlikely to get up and curl between the legs. They are serious and harsh, always ready to fulfill the task, protect their beloved owner and his property.
When talking about service dogs, first of all comes to mind a well-known for a lot of films representative of this direction - the German Shepherd. It can be either long-haired or short-haired. The field of work of these dogs is very extensive. They can be found in specialized forces (for example, on the border), they can also serve as guides and guard flocks. These animals show miracles of endurance and ingenuity. And the most famous breed of long-haired service dogs is, perhaps, a collie. Glory to her brought also the cinema. The movie "Lassie" is especially popular. Of course, it does not directly indicate the purpose of this dog as a watchman, hunter or shepherd, but an outstanding mind and endurance is beautifully shown.
Another breed of long-haired service dogs, which is widely known, is St. Bernard. These large and non-spiteful animals work as lifeguards in the most difficult weather conditions, helping (thanks to tirelessness, endurance and excellent scent) to save lives for people in a critical situation. The large slobbering face of St. Bernard is so expressive that it will not leave anyone indifferent. But villains will bypass the house where such a watchman lives, the farthest road.
