Volkshund
(The People's Dog)

This is a list to discuss the uses and purposes of canines in the period studied by the SCA ( Medieval and Renaissance ).

Such as, but not limited to, the use of terriers (earthdog s), lurchers and coursers ( coursing ), cart dogs / draft uses, hunting and hound s, herding, guard, and companion dogs. Discussions on breeding, rearing, feeding, training, equipping and any other canine related study or activity would be most welcome.

As per requests, we have also expanded to welcome and include animals of the hunt, partners and team members to our canine pursuits. For example hawks, ferrets, horses etc, so we can better understand and work with gentles working in these endeavors as well.

Hopefully, we can assist one another in our research, as well as, share what some may be putting to practical application.

Gentles, Society wide are welcome! But, please bear with us as we are trying to network with others in the Kingdom of Aethelmearc, mainly Region 2 (BMDL / Shire of Sunderoak / Canton of Steltonwald /Shire of Hunters Home).

This is not an official SCA List.
