Think legos are just for kids?

These life-size or larger-than-life dogs were constructed with Lego bricks, and as you can see, they’re accurate. What we love is the description we found about the dogs that were constructed in LegoLand could have been written expressly about purebred dogs. See what you think:

“Domesticated to be working and companion animals, dogs have been living with humans for centuries. Dogs in early human settlements have proven to be very important especially for areas where there were a lot of snow since they needed sled dogs to bring them from one place to another. Dogs were also used for hunting, herding and for protection. Apart from being pets, dogs today also serve in the military and the police. They are also members of rescue and retrieval teams.”

Getting back to the Lego dogs, it’s our understanding that computer programs have a lot to do with the accuracy of these “dogs.” That said, dogs have had several different appearances in a wide variety of LEGO themes since 1976 and as recent as 2013, but they debuted in the early 1900. The first realistic DUPLO dog appeared in 1986.
