Geocache Description:

A small walk of less then 1 km. But before you know where to go, you have to solve the crosswordpuzzle below.

Like many other mystery-caches: there is nothing to find on the above coordinate (unless you want to play some soccer).

On the links below or in the image gallery provided by the site, you will find a serie of dog images. Each dog is a different breed. To solve the puzzle, you need to fill in the official English name of each breed without spaces. Some of them are difficult, but there is always at least one characteristic that seperates the good answer from the wrong one.
One little remark: for picture 18 you will find 5 words, but you can only fill in the first 4!
