Historical Dog Story of the Week

What if I told you a poodle named Moustache stormed battlefields with Napoleonā€™s armiesā€”losing an ear at Marengo, saving the regimental flag at Austerlitz, and earning a soldierā€™s medal?

Ready for a story that makes your hair stand on end? Click here and learn about Moustacheā€™s courage that is far strangerā€”and more ferociousā€”than fiction.
