This is a beautifull little vignete.
But, those are Mongol dogs? I guess they looks like the old roman dogs. Did the mongols used dogs for hunting or war? Hope you enjoy!. Amicalement

Mongols certainly use dogs for hunting and guarding camps. In fact, a standard greeting on approaching a camp is "Hold the dogs". I don't have any specific knowledge about their use in war, although since Mongol tactics basically evolved from hunting techniques, I can well imagine they did. (Hmmm, interesting research topic…) The figures look like the Mongolian breed 'Bankhar'. For info with pictures see: link |
