Hurricane's and Bemu's breeds are similarly said to be "Terrier family" and "Boxer family", but those have already been mentioned in this topic.

Maybe it's meant to be hunting dog group? Because he's obviously not a beagle. He could be several hunting dog breeds actually, but beagle is no way one of them.
Hurricane is either airedale terrier (doubt it actually) or soft coated wheaten terrier (most likely). And Bemu's an obvious boxer.

It's the booklet that came with the cookie box.

Oooh! This is new! Looks like the 3rd edition, but how thin the book is it's not that 3rd pocket edition!

"Let's take the dark husky with us."
"Otherwise he'll die."
"All right!"
At least for the humans. XD

According to the Character Intro Page Series, Moss is an English mastiff/Dogue de Bordeaux mix, while the Mutsu brothers are Siberian husky/Sakhalin husky mixes.

Kisaragi's kids bloodline got another twist! Now Izou and bros are Siberian husky/Sakhalin husky/Alaskan malamute mixes.

This is kind of a debatable case so I'd like to hear what you all think.

From GDW 27:

Image

:akame: Anyone who's confident in their swimming ability, stay here and help Mel and Hook!

:buruge: My group will stay... All retrievers, stay here!

And later on, in volume 28, this group is referred to as "the skilled swimmers chosen by Buruge" (ブルゲに選ばれた泳ぎの得意な犬).

Image

I know it's super ambiguous, but I think it might imply that Buruge himself is either a retriever mix or some other breed (mix) well-suited for water? Maybe?

Thoughts? :THOT:
