The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
New enough, long enough and within policy. (The lead could be expanded a bit with a few words about post-WWI dogs, but for DYK purposes the article is more than fine as it is right now.) The hook is excellent (though very melancholic) and supported by an inline citation (not the same supplied in the nomination above, though, and not accessible for me but AGF. The one above furthermore supports the hook, so no problem here.) No image, QPQ has been done. This should be good to go. It was a fascinating read, though very sad.
