When assigning war dogs, show how many already assigned

Title says it all.  I know you can check assignments via the Animals screen, but going through the whole list to figure out whether one dwarf has war dogs or not takes far too long.

A stopped clock is right for exactly two infinitessimal moments every day.
A working clock on the other hand is almost never ever exactly right.

Do pets and work dogs show up in the relationship screen? If so, you could track them down that way.

Yeah I'd love that. I've taken to marking down which dwarves have dogs on a seperage notepad, and that won't do me much good if the dogs ever start dying.

Yes, this is a good idea.  I usually distribute war dogs evenly among my dwarves, and sometimes assign too many to a single dwarf.
