But, I just read that they are wonderful medicinal dogs. They have the ability to exude extraordinary body heat and many are used as heat therapy dogs for people suffering with chronic pain. Don't believe me? Just read this article I found in my latests issue of AKC Family Dog, May/June 2008:
Apparently, they are very intelligent as well. So goes to show you, even in the dog world, beauty is only skin deep.
