There are two kinds of golden retrievers in the world, the British golden retriever and the American golden retriever. In some pet forums, some people can see that Australia belongs to the British Golden Retriever and Japan belongs to the American system. The United States, Canada, Taiwan Province Province and Thailand are all very popular American golden retrievers, while Britain, Australia,

British golden retriever is very popular in New Zealand.

Hong Kong used to be a British colony, so it used to be mostly British golden retriever. Now American golden retriever has become a complete mainstream. It must be mentioned that American Golden retriever is very popular in Hongkong (including Chinese mainland). He is Mr. Chen Zhenda from Hong Kong. In the 1990s, he introduced famous American Golden Retriever such as Maple Leaf Boy, Golden Warrior and Maple Leaf Emperor, which directly contributed to the popularity of American Golden Retriever in Hong Kong and Chinese mainland today.

British golden hair belongs to the original body of golden hair. American golden hair is improved and cultivated on the basis of British golden hair.

Personality of Anglo-Americans/:No matter which strain Golden Retriever is, their personality has not changed much. Although the breeders have different purposes, they all retain the original character of Golden Retriever, such as docile, intelligent, aggressive and obedient.

Characteristics of facial expressions in Britain and America;

The British golden retriever gives people a simple and honest feeling, and his eyes are full of longing. Sometimes, even if you don't want to pay attention to it, you have to embrace it as long as you see its simple, helpless and eager expression. I think the British golden retriever makes people feel like a child, and they don't need the care of their master all the time.

American Golden Hair: First of all, the face feels more like a big child, and this confidence is always revealed in the eyes. Adult American golden retriever reveals a sense of superiority, more like a mature adult. But when they feel lonely, they are just like a child, eager to get the attention of their master. All they need is a hug from their master, and they will show a sense of complacency.

British and American body characteristics: the difference between them is not obvious. Although the standards are different, they are almost the same. There's not much difference in stature. The fullness of British breasts is more prominent than that of Americans, which is mainly due to

The purpose of reproduction is different. I will introduce it later!

Characteristics of British and American hair and bone mass: At present, American hair is the mainstream in China, so it gives people the impression of thick bones, more hair and wide head. British fur is not very popular in China, and kennels are basically American fur. The quality of British hair is not much different from that of Americans. If someone says that the hair quality of Yingfa is much worse than that of hairdressing, then I can only say that you have never seen a good Yingfa Golden Hair, but now. American hair is much softer. In terms of bone mass, there is no obvious difference between British and American hair when they are young. But when they are adults, American golden hair will keep strong bones, while British hair will be slightly thinner.

The difference between British and American skulls: Look at the picture above. Let's talk about the kissing department first. The British department is more vigorous and the American department is a little less. There is almost no difference in the nose width between the British and the Americans. There is a gap between British eyes, but it is not deep and will extend to the forehead. The length of the gap is not long (it is normal without this gap), but the American system does not have this feature. You can see that there is a prominent skull on the top of the British department.

The difference of coat color between Britain and America: the color of golden coat is allowed from cream to dark yellow, and the British coat is mostly light (pure white is not allowed). Most of America is dark.

Differences between British and American beauty contests: Due to different regions, the competition requirements are different, and the beauty requirements of the two are also different. Some people will say, wow, there are so few British hair or more American hair. Is that really the case? If you really understand the European and American competition systems, you will know that the judging standards of the two departments in the competition are different. The English department pays more attention to its own working ability in the competition, so it is necessary to highlight the full chest, strong strength and overall bone coordination ability, while the American department is more prominent in the competition. Therefore, strength hair does not need to be removed. There is no need to remove the belly hair (there are also some American golden hairs to beautify the belly hair). You can compare it with the picture above.

British/American Pigment: The quality of pigment precipitation is very important for two golden retrievers, which is also part of the selection of golden retrievers. It should be considered that the most prominent pigment deposition area of British golden retriever is around the eyes. Because of the color, it will be more obvious, which is what we commonly call dark circles. American golden hair is also available, but it is not obvious because of its dark color. By the way, how to do it? You can observe the colors of eyes, nose, lips, soles of feet, nails and stomach from the following parts. The darker the better, there is a small piece of pink on the nose and soles of the feet. Don't worry, it will turn black slowly. This standard uses two golden hairs.

Where did the blond hair come from? How many other dog lineages does he have? How many breeds of dogs have improved retriever Golden Retriever?

History: It consists of yellow straight-haired hounds and tweed Spanish water hounds, and later Irish squat hounds and blood hounds were introduced.

(Plain retriever+Tweed Water Hound+Red Setter+Blood Hound = Golden retriever)

Note: It was originally used to help fishermen pull nets.

The pedigree of retriever Golden Retriever is a dog breed that has been improved for many generations.

1. For friends who buy large dogs, most of the time, they can't see their parents-most of the breeding dogs are in the kennel.

Even if there is, I suggest just looking around and not taking it too seriously-we can't have a paternity test. Maybe the kennel just brought in a group of puppies and found them a parent or something. So, unless you are very good friends, please don't trust them-no kennel has a puppy leaving the nest every month, but every kennel has a dog. Why? Think for yourself.

On the basis of 1 point, my suggestion is to pay more than 95% attention to puppies. After all, this is what you put in front of you.

And the baby born to a pet dog may also become a champion, but can 30% of the puppies born to a champion dog become a champion? Maybe less. What I mean is simple. As long as you are careful enough, it is possible to choose a gourmet puppy from ordinary puppies, but if you are not careful enough, you may buy an ordinary puppy from the champion offspring. However, the price difference is not a little.

3. What should I bring before picking a dog?

A small comb with fine teeth.

thermometer

wet tissue

Golden retriever information (especially photos) found in magazines and online.

This breed of dog, Jin Mao, is crazy in front of people after seeing puppies, and usually rushes forward desperately after seeing people. At this time, don't worry, wait for their enthusiasm to pass, and then look at the dog carefully (after about 20 minutes, the little guy will settle down).

5, first ask the owner, the birth order of these dogs, the first child is better. But the owner's words are for reference only, because I may not remember, and for dog owners, I just want to sell the poor puppy first, so that I can breed one or two good dogs even if I can't sell it. So, listen.

6, look at the size of the dog, although it is a nest, but the dog's head is definitely different. Bigger ones are definitely better, and food and drink are the first. These dogs are definitely better.

A few things about the puppy's physical quality;

A. weigh yourself. The data has the weight that puppies should have at each period. There can be a gap, but it can't be too big. For example, only three months 10 kg, this is definitely not needed.

B, in terms of body temperature, the puppy's body temperature is between 38 and 39. If it exceeds half a degree, it will be fine, and if it is higher, it will be a problem.

C. Put the dog's tail up to see if the pp is clean. If it is not clean, or the nearby hair sticks together, it means that there is a problem with the dog's recent excretion and there are hidden dangers.

D, turn up your eyelids to see your eyes. There should be no obvious red blood on it. A good dog's eyes are light blue, and its pupils are together, so it can be seen and touched.

E, hide aside, shout at a medium volume, and the dog with quick response has good hearing. If some dogs don't respond when barking, they either have hearing problems or are in poor health.

F comb your hair with a small comb and comb it backwards to see if there are any parasites on your body.

After the physical examination, if there is no problem, then these dogs are eligible to buy. Let's look at the quality of golden retriever.

Looking at the quality of golden retriever, the order of importance is as follows:

1, bone mass, this is the easiest to see from the claws. A good golden retriever, even a 30-day-old golden retriever, has thick claws, which are more than 5cm horizontally. Bone mass is extremely important. If the bone mass is insufficient, the golden retriever will be weak in the future and will not become an ideal good dog.

2, coat color, this is very strange, everyone likes different standards of golden hair, some friends like gold, some friends like light yellow (close to white)-in addition to these two colors, there are black and pure white. However, as the name implies, golden fur is naturally the best color-many kennels or individuals selling dogs promote another theory in order to sell dogs that are not golden. Hehe, when they have Jin Baobao, they will put it another way.

The color of the blond baby is basically the same as that when he grows up, but it is slightly darker when he grows up-you can refer to the color of his ears.

3, the amount of hair, naturally, the more hair, the better, carefully combed with a comb, it is easy to understand the amount of golden hair, in theory, the more hair.

4, fur distribution, straight hair is better than messy hair. You should pay attention to the color of your hair when you comb it. The color of blond hair is gradual. A good golden baby can see the color distribution map when he grows up-look at it a few times and you will know what I'm talking about.

5, the head, the head of blond hair has two characteristics. First, there is an obvious bony process on the top of the head. Without this protrusion, the golden hair is impure. Secondly, in the middle of the nose, there is a vertical straight line that is concave, and the depth is better than the shallowness.

6. mouth. Hold the baby's mouth with your hand. The thicker the golden retriever, the wider the mouth will be in the future, otherwise it will easily grow into a pointed dog. In a moderate range, the wider the mouth, the stronger the hand and the better the appearance.

7, ears, golden hair ears can not be too big-ears are too big and too long, not an advantage, but a defect. The tip of the ear just covers the front of Jin Mao's eyes. If it exceeds too much, it is a disadvantage.

8, eyes, purebred boutique golden retriever adult dogs should not show white eyes when looking straight ahead-but don't buy such a dog when choosing a small golden retriever. One of the characteristics of all mammals is that the size of the eyeball does not change much after the eyes are born and grow up. Many people's eyes are quite big when they are young, but they become smaller when they grow up, because the eyes themselves are still the same. Therefore, when buying a puppy, you should properly show the whites of your eyes-it is appropriate to pay attention.

9, nose mirror, Golden Hair's nose should be black, if it is red, then it is solid. Take a closer look.

10, tail, many friends don't pay attention to the tail when choosing a small golden hair. Please pay attention to the posture of Jin Mao's model. If the tail is up or flat, someone must have pulled it up. When the golden retriever stands still, its tail must be hanging sideways.

When buying Gymboree, the tail should be clipped behind the ass, or droop moderately when it is still. When running, the tail will not be completely straight back, nor will it curl up like a China farm dog.

Feeding method

Feed puppies three months ago, three times a day for puppies from three to six months, twice a day after six months, and once a day for adult dogs. Pay attention to calcium supplementation and trace elements when growing up. If you want to look beautiful in Mao Mao, you can eat some beautiful things. Feeding time should be fixed. If there is no food left after one feeding, the dog will not leave the food plate for a long time, and add some food next time, but there is no food.

Attention! Don't feed all seasonings to dogs, such as soy sauce, salt, monosodium glutamate, sugar, pepper and aniseed. Some indigestible foods, such as soybeans and sesame seeds, are not suitable for feeding. You can't eat any squid or anything.

Adequate water supply should be provided, clean containers should be prepared, fresh water should be constantly changed instead of old water every few days. Let the dog drink freely.

oestrous cycle

A normal dog is in estrus twice a year, usually once in March-May in spring and once in September-165438+1October in autumn. When a bitch is in estrus, there will be signs in her body and behavior. Mainly in the following stages.

① Preestrus. It is the preparation stage of estrus, and the time is about 7- 10 days. The reproductive system begins to prepare for ovulation. Eggs are close to maturity, reproductive tract epithelium begins to proliferate, gland activity begins to strengthen, secretion increases, vulva congestion, vulva swelling, flushing and slippery, mixed with blood mucus. Male dogs often come by smell, and female dogs are not allowed to mate.

2 estrus. It is the most obvious estrus and mating period, lasting about 6- 14 days. External swelling and softening continue, mucus outflow becomes weak, and bleeding decreases or stops. Bitch either takes the initiative or stops. The bitch approached the male dog voluntarily. When the male dog climbed over, she kicked down her waist, with her hips facing the male dog, her tail leaning to one side, and her vulva opened and closed for her to mate. 2-3 days after estrus, the bitch begins to ovulate, which is the best time for mating.

③ Late estrus. The vulva swelling subsided, gradually returned to normal, and the temperament became quiet. It is forbidden to be quiet, and male dogs are not allowed to approach it. It usually lasts for two months, and then it enters the period of emotional absence. If you are pregnant, you are pregnant after estrus.

(4) lack of emotion. The reproductive organs are inactive. Usually about 3 months, and then enter the next estrus.

Male dogs have irregular estrus. In the breeding season of concentrated estrus of bitches, the testicles enter a state of active function. When approaching a bitch in estrus, smelling the special smell of the bitch in estrus can arouse excitement and complete mating.

Brief introduction of border collie

According to STANLEY COREN, a professor of psychology at Columbia University in the United States, combined with 208 dog training experts from all over the world, 63

According to STANLEY COREN, a professor of psychology at Columbia University in the United States, 208 local dog trainers, 63 small animal veterinarians and 14 experts who study warning dogs and guard dogs conducted in-depth interviews and observations on various famous dog breeds. And with the help of a lot of valuable data provided by Vancouver Dog Obedience Club, I filled out a very complicated and huge questionnaire and ranked the dogs' job obedience and IQ. As a result, the number one dog in the world is the standard of border collie. Although the border collie originated in the17th century, until now, when many working dogs and domestic dogs have entered the human heater and gradually forgotten their natural mission, the border collie is still active in the wild and sticking to its post in the pasture. Loyally guarding a herd of livestock for the master; Defend one's home faithfully. Next, let's take a look at this purebred dog. It has a gentle temperament, dignified eyes and a positive attitude. It is only a medium-sized dog, but it can give full play to its excellent ability-the standard of border collie.

Dogs. These excellent characteristics make the border collie often the biggest winner in the obedience competition.

Their competitive nature makes them the best breed for this kind of training.

The origin of border collie

From 5th century BC to/kloc-0th century BC, many Celts migrated all over Europe, among which three Celts came to Ireland with livestock, dogs and hounds. These competitions use a method called.

Q Gaelic dialect, and Cory means "useful", so the dog that is useful to them is called Cory. Irish zoologist W.L.C Martin described this kind of dog as: observant; Hairy, long and usually furry; Body shape, strong, beautiful appearance, a bit like a wolf. Therefore, we think that the border collie may have originated from Basque Celts.

Although English sheepdogs were first discovered in Ireland, they were bred into sheepdogs in Scotland. We can find the obvious answer in the early history of Scotland. Ireland has hillsides and lush grass, so Irish people raise more cattle and horses; Compared with the desolate and barren Scotland with bad weather, Scots want to raise sheep that are easier to survive. The earliest shepherd dog in Scotland was found in the Scottish Islands. These dogs originated from dogs brought by priests who migrated from Ireland to Scotland and were handed down before the early Vikings invaded Scotland.

It was not until the confrontation and struggle between tribes in the valley ended that Scots developed their natural resources. In such an environment, especially in the highlands, people will not invest in agricultural production, and only herding sheep is their better occupation. In the rugged geographical environment, people can only rely on dogs to help drive, assemble and look after livestock. We don't know where highland sheepdogs and lowland sheepdogs came from and how they originated, but we know the origin of modern sheepdogs. They have the ability to control their eyes, which was developed and trained by shepherds grazing on the border between Scotland and England, so dogs with the ability to control their eyes are called "border collies".

Most border collies have the ability to search, as long as they are encouraged to do it at the right time. The instinct to seek is the same as the instinct to graze. When you stop it from developing, these instincts may weaken or even disappear, which is one of the reasons why it is difficult for rescue dogs to encourage dogs to search in the game. And most of them are sensitive and will respond to the touch of the palm. We can touch their heads, cheeks and around their ears to appease them, which is no different from the mutual licking and caressing between wolves. This action can calm excited or nervous dogs, which is more effective than using commands.

Characteristics of border collie

Border collie, a kind of collie collie, originated from the Scottish border. It has a strong shepherd instinct, intelligent nature, good at observing words and feelings, can really understand the master's instructions, and can drive the sheep to move or rotate at a glance. It has been regarded as a shepherd for many years. Its biggest characteristics are intelligence, strong learning ability, high understanding, easy training, gentleness, loyalty and obedience, and its loyalty can be said to be with you.

Once a workaholic goes to work, if he doesn't stop it in time, he may work until he is "exhausted". Regardless of the hot or cold weather, he has to avoid heatstroke in summer.

They are agile, flexible, fast and full of momentum, and can run for hours without rest. They are also injured because they often ignore obstacles on the ground because of strong activities, and even if they are injured, they will not stop to rest. Therefore, it is not suitable for running on hard and uneven roads, such as cement floors and small gravel roads, which will lead to the wear of meat pads.

They are full of vitality, whether indoors or outdoors, but usually they don't exercise by themselves, so even if you have a big yard, they will not exercise by themselves, but would rather lie comfortably in the sun, or they will dig holes and bite things everywhere, such as furniture, shoes, books or carpets, to pass their boring time. Their favorite sports are: catching or frisbee, swimming and so on.

No body odor, just comb your hair 2-3 times a week; Suitable for outdoor life, not suitable for urban life; It's easy to get excited, so it's necessary to train strictly.

Choose for yourself.
