Yes they are, I would need to look upon the original print to see rest of the details.

I see you posted a close-up of the dogs, but I actually have the original print too. It's great to have both versions for comparison.

and yeah...I get the desire to bring those old Lurcher photos to life with color! It can make such a difference in the feel of a picture. What I’ve found is that some of the apps and tools out there can be a bit tricky to get the right look, but one that’s worked for me is https://www.nixplay.com/ . They’ve got some cool features for photo restoration and coloring that make it easier to make the images pop without it looking too “off.” Honestly, it’s all about giving it time and playing around with different techniques.

I was just reading about war dogs. The bull cross in the first photo would have been used to carry messages between the trenches. The army had a special training school. 

Proper war dogs ( bloodthirsty mastiff types) were used in battle by the Romans and others . I wonder how they trained them to differentiate between the enemy and themselves in the heat of battle? Scent?

They probably kept them on a leash.

Scent indeed, the Romans were well versed in the application of Old Spice
