Panniers for a dog

Hi Paul is the dog a St Bernard ? and is the soldier a Chasseur Alpin ? in the pic . I know the Belgians used dogs to pull carts for machine guns early in WW1 ,surprised the dogs hung about when things started flying about .regards Dave
 
The trick was getting them to pull the pin and throwing. :tinysmile_tongue_t:
