To settle an argument, can anyone say what breed of dog it was in the 1994
film "Dennis" with Walter Matthau?
Thanks

If you are referring to "Dennis The Menace," it's a Briard. A French
herding dog that was brought to America by Thomas Jefferson - 3rd US
President, 1801-1809, founding father. Jefferson had become so
enamored with the breed after his visit to France, Marquis De
Lafayette gave him two Briards as a gift. It's not only one of the
most distinct-looking of all dog breeds, but one of the rarest. There
are approximately 300 Briard owners in the US. The Briard also appears
in "Top Dog" with Chuck Norris. -D, NYC "The extraordinary European
Jews who emigrated to New York were enriching the city's intellectual
life with an intensity that has probably never been equaled anywhere
during a comparable period of time. I was raised largely by these
Jews... They were my teachers; they were my employers; they were my
friends. They introduced me to a world of books and ideas that I
didn't know existed" - MARLON BRANDO (excerpt from "Songs My Mother
Taught Me")

Your country should start doing so (along with routine infant
circumcision!eheee), because that is what gives the Briard its unique
look. I also forgot to mention the following: the original "Buck" from
"Married With Children" was also a Briard. Unfortunately, it did not
have its ears cropped. -D, NYC "..Yes, I am a Jew, and when the
ancestors of the right honorable gentleman were brutal savages in an
unknown island, mine were priests in the Temple of Solomon" - BENJAMIN
DISRAELI (1804-1881, first Jewish Prime Minister of England,
responding to Irish Roman Catholic leader Daniel O' Connell, in the
House of Commons, who cast aspersions on his Jewish ancestry)
