MAKE THE PUPS KNOW WHO'S IN CHARGE

However, they can be your worst enemy sometimes.

HUNTING THE RIGHT HOUND

Made up of guardians of livestock and property, police dogs, sled dogs and rescue dogs, these workers come in all shapes and sizes, from the standard schnauzer to the Great Dane. Images of dogs closely resembling these breeds are depicted on the walls of the tombs of the Egyptian pharaohs. Due to some unscrupulous breeders and unmindful owners, a few breeds within the terrier group have developed rather notorious reputations. These breeds generally and originally assisted hunters in the field with either excellent scenting abilities or incomparable speed. Dog breeds in this classification include:Afghan Hound, American Foxhound, Basenji, Basset Hound, Beagle, Black and Tan Coonhound, Bloodhound, Borzoi, Dachshund, English Foxhound, Greyhound, Harrier, Ibizan Hound, Irish Wolfhound, Norwegian Elkhound, Otterhound, Petit Basset, Griffon Vendeen, Pharaoh Hound, Plott, Rhodesian Ridgeback, Saluki, Scottish Deerhound, Whippet. Unfortunately, these are the dogs you're likely to find at the local shelter or dog pound, often the result of accidental breeding between two un-sterilized dogs. These canine workers can round up both children and adults alike into corners or even tight circles. It now serves only as a loving, albeit somewhat deskbound companion. This group has a variety of both behavioural and physical-a history of hunting assistance often being the only regular bond among some of the hound breeds. They are the original hunting dogs, many pre-dating the gun-assisting hunters in their sporting group. But without the right training and socialization, and in irresponsible hands, these can be dangerous dogs. Sometimes produced randomly, but most often planned by breeders, crossbreeds result from the mating or crossing of two dogs with a different but identifiable lineage. Without the right training, some working dogs can be difficult to handle, even dangerous. That's part of the fun. It was created in 1983.

THE ANATOMY OF A CANINE

Most hound dogs feature hanging or pendant ears, while many terriers have semi-erect button ears in which the tips fold over and hang in a V-shape, partially covering the opening. Special taste receptors on their tongues are believed to allow dogs to recognize chemical composition variancessuch as salt and impuritiesin different water sources. Long Hair. The tongue is one of a dog's most important organs. If fingerprints are essential to us, human beings, paws have the same essentiality to our pets. Wolves have remarkably thick, two-layered coats to protect them from extreme weather. Among the most common varieties are the erect or pricked ears sported by many of the more wolf-like breeds, such as German shepherd and basenjis, and by semi-domestic canids, such as dingoes and New Guinea singing dogs. Button ears can been seen in Shetland Sheepdogs and many terriers. Even the size of a canid's ears plays a part in temperature control. When the animals become significantly warmer, either through a change in air temperature or through physical exertion, they secrete even more fluid than usual. Many of these products contain heavy amounts of chemically-created odors which can get to your pet right where they live - near the floor where most of these products are used.
