No, dolichocephaly is not some strange and unusual disorder in dogs... it translates from the Greek as 'long face', so is the opposite of brachycephaly. I found this article really interesting: Long Face Dog – Fascinating Facts About Dolichocephalic Dog Breeds

My favourite bit was about some scent detection tests done on pugs, GSDs and greyhounds. The pugs consistently outperformed the GSDs. The greyhounds? They 'showed “a general failure to participate”, so no results for them were collected':D
 
Ive never heard of it before ! I have no idea how to pronounce it.
Interesting article .
