Ka de-Bo is famous for its unusual appearance and is appreciated in the dog breeder's environment. With all his brutal and terrible form, such a dog may be friendly and devotees. The material of this article will introduce the reader with the history of the origin of the "bullless dog", the peculiarities of its nature, the description of the standard and the conditions of detention.
History of appearance
The country of origin of the Maoir mastiff is considered Spain. The breed originated at the beginning of the XIII century, during the conquest of the Aragon King Highime I by the conqueror of the Almhad Mavrov. It was at that time that the ancestors of Ka de Bo-Molos dogs were delivered to one of the conquered islands of the Aragonians. History does not exclude the fact that the number of possible ancestors can include Spanish, Pyrenean mastiffs and bulldogs, Bordeauge Doves.
The uncontrollability of mating led to the appearance of rocks with characteristic security-fighting features . These animals began to call Ka de Bestiars that translated from the Catalan language meant "Dog, distilling cattle. In addition, security qualities manifested themselves when protecting houses and port warehouses. The brutality of the appearance fell on the soul of aristocrats, in view of which Dogs began to use for wild beast hunting and large game.
However, the breed continued to change its signs, and therefore the dogs differed from each other with dimensions and external data. In the XVIII century, the Balearic Islands became part of the Colony of the British, which generously shared with the locals in the ideas of their leisure. Unfortunately, at this time the person creates the ancestors of Ka de Birana. The spectacle that they prepared the public was terrible.
In the arena, the furious bull was opposed by a person and a dog, which required to save the owner at the cost of their own life. The brutal public was not affairs before, the dogs died in the first minutes of brutal playing. It was at that time that a person thought about the injury of animals for her bloody performances. Ka de Bestiars crossed with old-English bulldogs that have uncontrollable character.
As a result, the dogs began to resemble the modern Major Molos, but they divorced them for gladiator fights, opposing the bulls first, and then - other dogs. The selection of puppies was tough, the man did not help the dogs during problem acquisitions, no one was keen on the weak puppies, they did not protect healthy from diseases. Breeders shifted to the upbringing of puppies on the bitches, and therefore it was not necessary to talk about the exposure and some kind of education. Dogs grew aggressive, they did not know any socialization.
Cowardic individuals destroyed, like dogs who received heavy injury in battles. Such a selection allowed to achieve a good gene pool. However, he also caused the destruction of the livestock of purebred pieces. By the beginning of the XX century, their number did not exceed several dozen. The remaining dogs, in addition to Fight playing, there was an application as guards in cattle farms.
An excellent health and a formidable view liked breeders, and therefore the desire to increase the livestock has become natural. This time, only Staroangali Buldogs and Ka de Bestiars of the Tiger Color participated in Vyazka. Now the attention was paid to the exterior, the standards were considered medium-sized DGs, which was rare. The name Ka-de-Bo got in 1923, the dog of this breed for the first time took part in the exhibition in 1929. Registration with recognition of the standard took place in 1964.
Characteristic of breed
Spanish Major Mastiff looks like a mastiff, and on Bulldog. The representative of the breed is a massive backbone, a large physique, as well as a few elongated body body. A characteristic feature of the breed is a pronounced sexual dimorphism: the head of the males is larger and greater.
The standard for this breed is quite strict and allowing a certain growth of males and bitches. For example, in the males, it varies in the range of 55-58 cm, in females - from 52 to 55 cm. Head in dogs is large, its form strives for square. The back of the back, shroud, shroud and flattened, separating a deep groove, well traced. The weight of dogs, depending on the floor, can vary in the range from 25 to 35 kg.
In this case, the female weighs less male, and individual males reach 38 kg.
It is the physique, the total mass and developed muscles give the dog a formidable appearance. Nasal bones in Ka de-Bo-shortened, Massive jaws, have pronounced chewing muscles under the folds. Nose black, nostrils are widely placed, brownish eyes, differ in deep fit. Ka de Bo wool is short and tough, while the standard allows several types of color: deer (beige or redhead), black and tiger.
Someone calls the "bullish dog" Mallorian Bulldog, however, the breed refers to mastiffs, being one of their varieties. Their chest is pretty deep, cylindrical, tail is located low. It is wide at the base and smoothly narrows by the end.
Musculatory dog is clearly visible on the back and limbs.
Paws strong, fingers are collected in a lump, the pillows of the fingers are painted in a dark color. The skin is thick, the neck is seen a small suspension. Moves the animal trot, alternately rearrange the pair pairs, located diagonally. As for the color, the standard allows some deviations in the form of white spots provided that their total area does not exceed a third of the body area. The slightest deviations from the standard are such vices.
- A noticeable difference between height in the withers and the sacrum (height in the withers should not be higher);
- The incorrect position of the ears (they must neither stand nor hanging);
- direct or scissor bite;
- tail shape by type of bulldog;
- The emptiness between the upper and lower teeth exceeding 1 cm;
- Lack of some teeth.
In addition, disqualified these mastiffs and on other features. For example, the iris of their eyes should not be too light or yellowish. Dogs should not be buggy or unnecessary evil, manifesting aggression for any occasion. Today it is considered a malformation.
It is unacceptable to stop the ears either or tail.
Character and behavior
Anyone who sees the Spanish mastiff from afar, trying not to approach him, the fear of his appearance. However, breeders adhere to other opinions, despite the fighting species of their pets. It is impossible to argue with one hundred percent confidence that the dog is completely harmless and is like "God's Dandelion". It may be angry and uncontrollable, which is explained by two reasons: the lack of any education and socialization, as well as the preparation of a dog to forbidden dog fights. Therefore, the alertness of passersby is quite substantiated.
If the dog from an early age is taught and raising, it has not developed aggression. Such an animal is characterized by psychological stability, restraint and tranquility. The dog perfectly understands the employment of the owner, and therefore it tries not to insist on non-stop communication. He needs a master whom he will obey, who can become a true friend.
This man should be a volitional, able to grow up a brought up pet from a dog, building a trust relationship between the dog and family members.
Ka de Bo is well socialized and easily fits into a small team called family. He can treat all the households well, respects them and tries to obey. Unlike many freedom-loving fellow, representatives of this breed firmly feel the atmosphere that reign in the family, and perfectly understand how to behave. These terrible brutas may not only be rejected by human happiness, but also to empathize with their masters, if it requires a case.
As phlegmatic, Ka de Bo is not afraid of forced loneliness. They patiently wait for the return of households, without bringing the neighbors to whether either . To find out, it is important to provide dogs with your own comfortable bed, a bowl with fresh meal and water, as well as your favorite toy. However, much behavior will depend on the host and timeliness of learning.
If you lose time, the animal may show lines and waybirth.
The peak of rebellion in Ka de Bo has to take the period of youth and can last to puberty. It is manifested in persistent behavior: for example, the dog may try to disintegrate the bed, sofa, dishes and other things that will seem more interesting than his own. Defend your point of view of the dog may during this period for a long time. In view of this, the owners will have to stock Patience and perseverance, in order not to make a psychologically and physically on a pet, explain to him his place.
Properly trained dog can become an excellent security guard and a defender of the family. As a rule, smart dogs do not attack strangers, as well as on ordinary passers-by. But if the guest crosses the framework of the owners permitted in the house, the dog sometimes allows itself an independent decision of the decision. At first he can look at the stranger for a long time, but there are cases when the animal passed to the attack.
So that the dog does not allow himself too much, these shortcomings of upbringing eliminate the special course of classes with a professional filmologist.
In relation to children, Major mastiffs show loyalty. They have iron patience, in view of which they do not allow themselves poor behavior, being close to children. Even if they hurt them, the dogs understand that this is not with evil. Pets adore active games, although they can randomly hurt children, for example, to knock down when playing with the ball.
As for the neighborhood with their relatives, the Ka de Bo is calm. They are tolerant to cats, but Small home rodents and birds are disliked And sometimes, yielding to instincts, can perceive them as mining.
If the owner does not intend to remove the bird from home or rodent when buying a "bullless dog" puppy, it is necessary to reduce the number of contacts with it to a minimum.
Ka de-Bo is incredibly active and moving, and therefore it is difficult for them to be a long-range locked in four walls. They try to throw out his energy on the walk, doing with the owner of moving games and workouts. Increase the endurance of dogs and strengthen the immunity helps run, in addition, the PSU for walks is needed both ball and frisbee.
Dogs are leaving for training if it is built on trust: the scream and physical punishment should not be.
How to choose a puppy?
Choose a small puppy, based only on visual representations and emotions, rash. Not every person at her look at him is aware of how much labor and time will have to be put in the baby so that it grows up a friendly and brought up with a dog. This is a big responsibility, including the society in which the dog should behave adequately, not harming anyone and not frightening anyone. Not every breeder has the necessary conditions of detention, many simply are busy, other and take puppies only in pursuit of fashion.
If the buyer remains faithful to his decision, he should think about buying a kid in a specialized nursery from a proven breeder. Neither a bird market nor a dubious seller on the Internet will give guarantees that the buyer will acquire a purebred puppy without vices. Often in pursuit of money, such breeders fit the unclean dogs, which often turns into the impossibility of visiting the exhibitions by the pets.
Other dogs are crossed with uncontrollable dogs, and this is reflected in behavior and character, transmitting to the puppy's parent.
Before contacting the nursery, you need to visit a pair of dog exhibitions. This will allow closer to get acquainted with this breed, understand how the animal looks like, the standard inserted into the regulations established by the Rules. You can also communicate with breeders, scroll out directories, having learned the valuable information, and choose priority potential relatives.
The chosen puppy should be healthy, active, playful and inquisitive. Of course, the man in the street cannot determine whether the puppy is healthy or has any malformations of development. Therefore, it is better to buy a dog together with a specialist who disassembled.
So the buyer will not slip the unclean PSA, and the expert will help you choose a person who in the future can occupy honorary places at exhibitions.
When buying it is important to take into account other aspects. For example, just just look at the puppy, you need more Serious visual inspection. Let's say, the kid who has reached the age of 1-1.5 months must be all the milk teeth, it is necessary to look at the mouth when buying must be necessary.
In addition, a lot to tell about the future pet can bump on a puppy head. It is she who gives an expert certain information, for example, its size relates to the gabarites of an animal: what it is more, the larger the dog. It is important to pay attention to the bite: it should be correct, the snack is more than 1 cm is considered unacceptable. Despite the small age of the pet An inspection of his tail is important: there should be no chances on it.
Special attention when buying must be paid to the color and the volume of the mark.
The life resource of dogs on average ranges from 10 to 12 years. However, it can vary both in the large and smaller. The difference is determined by the living conditions, the correctness of the departure and content, the presence of diseases, inattention to the examinations and prevention of diseases.
To increase the lifespan of a pet, it is necessary to walk it more often, to strengthen the immune system, to provide vitamin complexes.
Conditions of detention
Like any other pet, Ka de Bo will require a lot of care from its owners, attention, affection, as well as funds for the purchase of own things, equipment for walking, feed. It is mistaken to assume that due to the short length of the dog's wool do not need special care. In fact, their external indicators depend on how regular care provides them with the owner. All important: how much it is right it feeds a pet, as often leads to preventive inspections to the vet, whether timely vaccination performs.
Hygiene wool
Caring for wool should be timely and regular. This will learn the PSA to body hygiene, and therefore in the future it will not be anxious or impatient when the owner will do its fur coat. Complete melligible wools need at least twice a week. To the animal procedure does not seem uncomfortable, it is preferable to purchase a furminator for it, picking up the right width of the trimmer ridge and the faithful frequency of the teeth.
This device will not only allow you to save a pet from woolly, which interfere with the growth of new, but will provide a dog a good massage. Therefore, similar procedures animals love. Combing wool can be a brush of natural bristles with frequent teeth. Special attention to getting rid of the dog from extra wool must be given during molting.
This can help the PSU, and reduce the amount of wool lying in the house.
Bathing
Dogs of this breed peculiar to the characteristic smell of the pupin. However, this fact does not allow the owner to wash the dog almost every week. It is impossible to do this, because frequent swims lead to washing with a natural protective layer fur. As a result, the work of the glands increases, which leads to a violation of the fat balance of dog leather.
As if the owner wanted to get rid of the smell of a dog, bathe dog breed Ka de Bo can no more than 2 times in a month. For swimming, it is preferable to purchase a specialized detergent with low acid concentration and alkalis. Selecting the shampoo, it is necessary to ensure that it is designed specifically for dogs with a hard type of wool.
Occasionally for washing, you can apply a dry shampoo, rubbing it into the dog's wool and combing a special brush.
Cleaning ears and eyes
Despite the fact that the dogs of this breed are not prone to ear infections, it is still necessary to inspect their ears. With the appearance of ear sulfur, it is supplied to get rid of a cotton swab or a disk dipped in a drying facility. It is impossible to use cotton chopsticks to purify the ears, because with random careless movement, they can cause damage to the eardrum.
Eyes also need regular inspections and hygiene. Any foreign particle that has fallen into them must be removed with a slight tangent movement in the direction of internal angles. To do this, use a special lotion or boiled tea. If the Pet's eyes are blushing, they will be frozen either forging, it is necessary to urgently turn to the veterinarian who observes the dog since childhood.
An inspection specialist will reveal the problem and select the appropriate treatment.
Teeth
Few of the breeders of dogs think that in addition to hygiene ears and eyes Of particular importance is hygiene. Ka de Bo's teeth, as well as in humans, without proper cleaning are quickly covered with a yellowish flare, and in addition, they are subject to the formation of a dental stone. Preventive cleaning can be carried out in the salon conditions, however, sooner or later the owner will have to master it independently, making the procedure with an integral part of the overall hygienic inspection.
To this end, you can buy a pet rubber toys. Also good prevention can be solid tasty from compressed bones. The flare must be removed about twice a month: if this is more common, you can damage the dental enamel. For cleaning, you can use special nozzles on your fingers.
Those who are not solved to drink fingers into the mouth of a pet, acquire special brushes. Dogs have their own toothpastes, in view of which they are absolutely no hygiene that people enjoy.
The taste of these pastes is neutral, besides, zoopads do not provoke the appearance of allergies.
Caring for claws
Whoever spoke of that Ka de Bo claws are becoming natural, in reality it is not. The owner has to independently cut them, so that this is not reflected in the dog's gait and its movement manner. In addition, long claws may cause the deformation of the fingers on the front and hind legs. Dog manicure will be In regular shortcuting of cohesives by cogteresis.
Burzes and jar will have to be removed using a saw.
Walk
Walks are definitely necessary for the correct development and strengthening of the immunity of the pet. Of course, it is not worth doing this in bad weather, after walking it is necessary to teach the animal to wipe the paws, so that the dirt does not stretch behind him all over the house. In addition, dirty paws can cause any infection.
After each walk, it is necessary to inspect the dog for the presence of ticks or fleas. If the parasites are found, you need to urgently contact the veterinarian, which will help to eliminate the problem. Clear with fleas can not be too much because they are quite quickly multiplied.
And this means that the scale of the problem may complicate the treatment process.
Feeding
It is necessary to feed a pet correctly, initially determined with the type of diet. If a dry industrial feed is chosen as a nutritional food, you should look after the dog's premium products for the dog. Natural food must be dietary . Special attention must be paid to the diet until the puppy is small and is predisposed to the rapid weight gain.
If it is fed with natural food, along with it he needs to give vitamin feeding. During the growth of the teeth, special attention will be paid to the dosage, in addition, the vitamins will have to alternate. This is discussed with a specialist, because the owner itself is unlikely to select the desired option.
The third part of the portion for each feeding should be low-fat meat.
It can be both chicken and turkey or veal, beef. It is preferable to choose fatty pieces for food that better affect the work of the Ka de-Bo digestive system. In addition to meat, he needs off-products and fish (suitable as marine and oceanic). In addition to these products, in the diet of the Spanish mastiff should be fruits and vegetables. Kefir, cottage cheese, eggs are also useful for him.
Neither an adult dog nor a puppy can give beans and cabbage, products from home preservation, river fish, sweets, sweets, flour, milk. Regardless of the food time, the dog should always stand their bowl with fresh water. It is impossible to force the animal to extradite the water independently, because in this case it climbs into the bath, washing or even the toilet.
Water for these dogs needs bottled or filtered, boiled for drinking is not suitable.
Education and training
It is necessary to engage in socialization and dressury ka de-bo. From the first day of the appearance of an animal in the house. Of course, the beginning of socialization is the period that he spent before buying, being in the nursery. His learning from birth is a dog-mother, going to the primary skills of interaction with the surrounding world. She does not order, does not dictate their conditions. Training that a person will exercise must be built on the same principles.
Considering that the puppy from birth is next to his brothers and sisters, a person tries to socialize him, periodically leaving in the company of relatives. At the same time, fellow can be a little older than the pets itself. However, the owner must take into account the fact that adheating males, remaining with each other, can stripe fights.
Therefore, communication with relatives in a pet should not be long.
An important aspect of training is the fact that Its foundations are laid in the first year of the dog's life. Under no circumstances be allowed to violate the puppy in the house rules and to act as an adult dog is not supposed to. Correct any deficiencies can be training to pet the year. Then it is very difficult, and some representatives of the breed and does not allow it to do, trying to quickly take a leading position, becoming the "leader of the family pack."
Can not be postponed correcting deficiencies. Easier to get rid of them at once, and, sooner breeder cynologist turn to the better. With regard to basic commands, you handle them and novice dogs quickly understand what is required of them, and in the absence of uniformity in training and to memorize faster absorption.
In order to improve security as pets can be trained to rate guard dog.
When conducting training in any case should not encourage the dog's aggression. This approach is the right way to educate the wicked and the non-controlling himself dogs. Regardless of the fact that the earlier dogs bred as fighters for cruel spectacles, crude methods of training in relation to them are not permitted. With regard to the education of individuals for exhibition events, in this case should consider Handling (art dog demonstration at the exhibition). Courses of vocational training will be useful for those that the owner at the right time of the exhibition will be able to emphasize the dignity of your pet, beating the existing shortcomings.
The style of this course may be different (E.g., English, German, American). Such training to a greater extent increases the animal a chance to win in the exhibition. The specialist will teach the animal properly and move gracefully and patiently endure examinations.
This is particularly important in such procedures as feeling and checking of teeth.
Suitable clicks
Nickname should reflect the character of the dog, but because her choice should be approached with great responsibility. For example, these pets can not be called a ball, Bobby, could not be assigned to them and completely inappropriate nicknames like the bloke, Sour, miser, Infection, Bully. Call the dog can be called an outstanding animal imprinted history.
In addition, you can choose the name with a sense of color type of the character.
It does not have to be long. Ideally, this can be shortened moniker in the name chosen for the pedigree. The short name of the dog will remember quickly, and will continue to understand and his nickname, given to the pedigree.
For example, often enough to remember that the name consisted of two syllables. Pet can be called Archie, Alf, Alma, Ralph Lloyd, Black, Berg, Bursa, Beta. Not bad fit nicknames may be: Brutus, Paddles, Gabi, Greta, Doug, Zus. Ryan can be called a dog, lamp, Gross.
Do not call the dog Gogol, Mozart, Vij, Pushkin.
If I want to stand out, it is better to pay attention to the nicknames that the modern civilization brings. For example, a PSU can give a nickname Google, tweets, Stark. Even the name of Schwartz will be understandable not only to the owner and ps, but also others. At the same time, such a name is short, but memorable.
You can also give a pet with a nickname Dark, based on its color. As for the nicknames of a gun or Max, they are better suitable for cats, and do not correspond to the image of the animal.
Does not need him and nickname in the Japanese spirit, which, although they are of particular importance, but completely do not fit the brutal dogs on sound.
