chained_bear commented on the word bouvier des flandres
a Franco-Belgian dog breed, probably formed by crossing the griffon and the beauceron. During World War I, bouviers des Flandres were used to pull artillery carts and for that reason were targeted by German gunners. The breed was 'reconstructed' in the 1920s.
