Images of medieval dogs

My post Images of Medieval Cats has proved to be a very popular read for many of my followers. So, to provide a balance, here are some medieval dogs for you.  These images have all been taken from Peraldus’s Theological miscellany, including the Summa de vitiis (England, 2nd or 3rd quarter of the 13th century, after c. 1236), shelfmark Harley 3244,  © British Library Board.
