Taki

As the German military began to move across Belgium and into France in 1914, a unit from the French Army found itself trapped between the Germans and a river. Communications were cut, and the stranded troops needed to get a message out to request help. Dogs had been trained to become messengers but hadn't yet been tested. Taki was the youngest of the trained dogs and was chosen to run through an active battlefield. The message was written in code in case it was intercepted, and was then placed into a waterproof capsule. Taki had been trained to carry the capsule in her mouth. Her master regretfully sent her off on her mission and to great surprise and relief, she made it through. The French military was then able to send the help needed to save the unit.

Taki was a Belgian Sheepdog and for the next few years, she worked tirelessly as a messenger dog. Amazingly, this awesome dog made her way across shell littered fields, navigated around clouds of poisonous gas, and avoided the shrapnel from bombs. She always seemed to make it through and was decorated by two nations for her heroic service. It was in the year 1918 in December that Taki was given an honorable discharge by the king of Belgium. When she was 16 years old and had lost her owner, her story was reported in the newspaper in Long Beach where she now lived. With honors, she became part of the National Guard Artillery Unit and felt right at home. At night she went home with a new master, Jack Pugh. Taki lived out her final years with the National Guard and Pugh. What an amazing dog she was!

Belgian Sheepdog Dog Name Considerations

When you choose a name for your dog, consider how longer names may be shortened, and whether you like the shortened version. Other things to consider are choosing a name that grows with your dog. For example, Tiny may suit a newly born puppy but if your new addition is set to grow into a massive Great Dane, the name may no longer be your choice. If your dog has Belgian heritage as the Belgian Sheepdog does, consider a title from their origin such as Lief, which in Flemish means 'loved one'. Avoid any names that may sound similar to those commands you will use - an example is a dog named May could be confused when hearing the command 'stay'. There is quite an art to naming a dog! Think about how the name relates to your dog and how you feel when you call it out loud in public. Avoid embarrassing or culturally insensitive names. Give your beautiful Belgian Sheepdog a name that shows your respect and love.
