History

The Chow Chow has been known for more than 2500 years in China, where it is represented in bas-reliefs of the time. Dog of mysterious origin, belongs to the Spitz family. Some believe it is a cross between a Tibetan Mastiff and a Samoyed., while others think it is more of an original dog, that is to say, that comes from the Nordic dogs (internal temperature above average, particular shape of the bony structure of your skull…). In any case, stories about the origins of Chow Chow they are usually just hypotheses.

In Manchuria and Mongolia it was used as a war dog, to watch over herds or rushes and as a draft animal. The Chow Chow they were also found in Tibetan monasteries: his function was to defend the monks. Occasionally it was a hunting dog, it was eaten in some parts of china, and his skin was also traded.

It was introduced in Europe in 1865, when Queen Victoria of England received one as a gift and started raising it. It was officially recognized by the Kennel Club English little less than 30 years later, in 1894. Today, only used as a pet.

The term ยซChow Chowยซ has appeared recently. In fact, during the interwar period, the Chow-Chow It was known in the West as the "Hong Kong dog".

Despite some other blood additions over the years 50, the Chow Chow is a breed that has remained pure.

His eyes are dark, from Brown to black always small, almendrada form. The nose is completely black and wide except in color Chow cream and white, which supports the color pink. The mouth is wide and strong. They have a characteristic "stilt" movement, due to the peculiar conformation of their hind legs, which lack angle, and it makes it look like walking on stilts.

It is a dog of agile and balanced movement. By joining the legs in parallel to two in the movement. This breed has a very dense fur that can be rough or soft, which it accumulates more around his neck, giving it its distinctive frill or horsehair. Its fur can be red, black, Blue and cream. Those who have spotted or multi-coloured fur are considered outside the standards of the breed.

The Chow Chow They are distinguished by their unusual bluish-black or purple tongue and strong legs.. The gene for the bluish-black or purple tongue is usually dominant in this breed, and so it also tends to be in from mixed races of a Chow Chow.

A legend that says, When the gods placed the stars in the firmament, pieces of the sky fell that the Chow Chow licked and since that day he has had a blue tongue..

Character and skills

Today, the Chow Chow is commonly a companion dog. His strong sense of ownership of their homes with their - sometimes- intriguing approach to strangers may be misinterpreted by those who do not belong to his family.

Copies of the sex opposite usually coexist with less tension than with those of the same sex, but it is not uncommon to see Chow Chow of different sexes living together peacefully.

They are extremely loyal to their family and it costs change masters. Affection usually shown only to people you know, so visitors should not push them physically as they will not immediately accept strangers as quickly as they do with their family members.

Both varieties molt twice a year, during which the coat will abundantly. Rarely need a bath, although a hot bath followed by a thorough drying can help remove the coat you're missing.

The rest is basic care. Trim nails as needed, usually once a month. Brush your teeth frequently for general good health and fresh breath. Check ears weekly for dirt, redness or odor that may indicate an infection. If the ears look dirty, clean them with a damp cotton ball and a mild ear cleaner recommended by your vet.

Health

The Chow Chow is the breed of dog most affected by Dysplasia elbow. It is also vulnerable to hip dysplasia, dislocation of patella, thyroid disease, Pemphigus Foliaceus and ocular disorders such as entropion and ectropion. The risk of these disorders increases exponentially when they are purchased at pet stores unscrupulous caregivers who do not test their dogs to see if there is existence of genetic disorders. Like this, a potential buyer of this breed should ask about the health status of the pet to buy. Animal caretakers must provide the client with a guarantee of the dog's health. But despite his delicate health, It is an excellent companion dog for humans..

    History

    Where did the "Irish Terrier" originally come from??

    The "Irish Terrier", he is a high-ranking terrier. It is often called the "Red Irishman" for its distinctive reddish coat.. Its roots are, as in all terriers, a little on the ground. The name Terrier is derived from the Latin ยซTerraยป for the earth. So they were dogs for movement on land and underground.

    High-ranking terriers were supposed to run with the pack on fox hunts. When a fox took refuge in its burrow, the terriers had to chase him underground and get him out of the burrow, as it is called in the language of the hunters. One can imagine that the fox, after all a well fortified predator, does not voluntarily abandon its burrow. so a Irish Terrier I had to be very brave, fearless and defensive. Even today the "Red Irish" are hunting dogs in their hearts. They are not afraid and with every fiber they strive to do their job as well as possible. We can still experience all these qualities in the Irish Terrier as a companion dog.

    They have a special charm but also the challenge of their ancestors.. But red Irish was also used in many different ways at home and on the farm.. He had to keep the yard free of mice and rats., protect chickens, pigeons and rabbits for the night of the martens and foxes. Finally, had to watch the farm and its inhabitants and, if necessary, protect them.

    Ludwig Beckmann reported in 1895, in his two-volume work on the "Breeds of the Dog", that already in 1847 in Ireland they had begun to breed an independent terrier, the ancestor of the current Irish Terrier. At least that's what the Irish claimed, while the English for a long time dismissed this dog as a variety.

    Until 1880 the color of the Irish Terrier was, in fact, still quite uneven. Only little by little did Irish breeders mark their dog with the red coat color as something special. But then it became very popular, even in England and especially in the US, where many Irish had emigrated. The first special breed club for Irish Terriers was founded very soon, the 31 in March of 1879 in Dublin. It was then the first race of Irish Terrier in being officially recognized by the British Kennel Club with Ireland as country of origin.

You can feel that every fiber of his muscular body is under tension. The standard tells us…

    …seem active, lively, agile and energetic and have a lot of substance without showing any clumsiness, because speed and endurance as well as strength are essential to the race. The Irish Terrier should not appear clumsy or amorphous; the contour of his body and figure must demonstrate speed, grace and fleetingness.

    Their coat should be thick and lean in texture. Must be, according to technical jargon, broken or broken, that is to say, it should look tough and tough and, However, be extended. The head is also hairy, giving the impression of a beard. The "red Irish" must be uniformly red, wheat-red or yellow-red. Apart from color, the Irish Terrier reminds a bit of a small and elegant Airedale Terrier, which is also quite similar to him in character.

It is said that the Irish Terrier he is very hard on himself and would face dangers and even his own injuries with extreme contempt. It is still used as a working dog in its country of origin.. There he does a good job as a yard dog, guard and hunting. In today's hunting it is mainly used for post-shot work.. The official standard describes its character very accurately:

    The Irish Terrier, although determined and able to face other dogs, is remarkably loyal, kind and affectionate with people; However, when he is attacked, show the courage of a lion and fight to the bitter end. It is wrongly said that the Irish Terrier he gets into fights with other dogs easily, sometimes even in the exhibition ring. Although it does not avoid any dispute when circumstances require it, the Irish Terrier it is easy to train and it is a sociable domestic dog; still embodies the qualities that, according to previous descriptions, They had made him the "guardian of the poor", "Friend of farmers and beloved of distinguished gentlemen.".

    The Irish Terrier he is essentially a reckless and not a lapdog. But, nowadays it is doing very well as a companion and family dog. He is a faithful companion, vigilant, warm and loving for young and old, as long as one allows oneself and him the movement. It has a big character, self-confident and never submissive, that one should respect and appreciate. In his book about the Irishman "Jerry the Islander", the great writer Jack London expresses his respect for this great character in the following words: ยซJerry, you are gold, pure gold, inside and outside, and no dog in the whole world can compete with you. You have a heart of gold, golden dog; be good to me and love me, and I will be good to you and I will love you now and always.".

You should be able to see the litter along with the mother bitch, after the fix, in the place. Please, don't buy one Irish Terrier by Internet, because there is a high risk that the puppy will come from a dog vendor or breeder, normally well camouflaged.

    Education and maintenance ยซIrish Terrierยป

    They must be used to other pets from birth, otherwise they will be seen as prey. The Irish Terriers they are very suitable as playmates for children, since they are prepared for any adventure and are robust enough to play with children. But, the house rules must be correct and the terrier must know his role in the family. On the street he tends to fight with other dogs. Due to its moderate size, his low weight and his good obedience – properly trained – is a companion without problems in all life situations.

    History

    The Parson Russell Terrier it is a small to medium sized terrier. It's a hunting dog.

    Although this breed of dog is very young in modern dog breeding, the Parson Russell Terrier is very close to the old and classic type of a terrier in character and appearance. Terriers form a large group within dogs. Its name is derived from the Latin ยซTerraยป for the earth. So they were dogs for work on the land. The first evidence is given by the ancient Romans. Already in the Middle Ages terriers are described in detail. His homeland is in the British Isles. Terriers existed throughout the country. In the stables they kept small vermin at bay. Even the big rats were not a problem for them. The hens, pigeons and rabbits protected them from martens and foxes. To keep chasing foxes, the terriers were sent to the trench.

    The Parson Russell Terrier of today are made exactly for this purpose. They should and could get the fox out of the hole. At the same time, they had to run with the fox hunts in the pack, that is to say, they had to be able to follow the gallop of the hunt. All of these tasks require enthusiastic commitment, special courage, independent thinking and the so-called sharpness of predators.

    The Parson Russell Terrier turned into a versatile hunting dog, it's not only suitable for underground work. In the 19th century the English shepherd Jack Russell he was a successful hunter, rider and above all breeder of Fox Terriers. In his long life as a breeder he greatly increased the performance of the Fox Terrier. They were now fit for all individual hunting tasks, they could work in the pack and in the den at the same time.

    In Australia, only with the help of their dogs could a plague of foxes be contained. To thank this, these dogs were finally named after their breeder, the Parson ยซJack Russellยป Terrier. They were and are physically and mentally raised for work, no show dogs. So breeders and lovers of this terrier for a long time refused to join the system of modern pedigree dog breeding., because they did not want to see dogs evaluated primarily on their appearance and feared the negative consequences of the show business on the fitness and health of dogs. This has done this breed of dog very well..

    Seriously raised, these are dogs that were largely spared from hereditary diseases and extremes in breeding. He "Jack Russell Terrierยป had a wide range of sizes from the beginning, rather short-legged and rather tall. Since performance was decisive, such refinements had no role. Now two breeds of dog have been made from the ยซJack Russell Terrierยป and the two lines have separated in breeding. The little one is still called Jack Russell Terrier, It has a height at the withers of up to 30 cm and is provided a little longer. The Parson it is a little taller and with more legs and in its rather square shape. Parish is another word for "pastor" in English.. So two breeds of dog are named after one person, el pastor Jack Russell. Both dogs are a credit to the Shepherd. In 2001 the new race Parson Russell Terrier was officially recognized.
