Dalmatian dog public domain image for free download

Dalmatian dog

Height: 19-24 inches at shoulder

Weight: 40-70 pounds

Size: Medium

Coat: Short coat that sheds year round, there is also a long coat variation.

Lifespan: 11-13 years

Description:

The Dalmatian is a medium sized, white dog with spots that are often approximately dime sized. Although black or liver spots are most common, they can also be blue, orange or lemon. There are also many different coat pattern variations. The Dalmatian usually weighs between 40 and 70 pounds, and the males are often bigger than the females. Built for long distance endurance, this breed is well muscled.

History:

The Dalmatian's past is quite extensive and argued. Many sources claim the Dalmatian was the first spotted dog in Europe, Asia and Africa. The first positive location is Dalmatia, on the western coast of the former Yugoslavia, which was previously an Austrian province. The Dalmatian is nicknamed by the English as The English Coach Dog, The Carriage Dog, The Plum Pudding Dog, and The Firehouse Dog. It is from its first home that the correct name originates: Dalmatian.
The Dalmatian has been a dog of war acting as a sentinel at the border of Dalmatia and Croatia. They have been shepherds, as well as fire house mascots. Dalmatians have also been used as sporting dogs in a variety of capacities: birds, trail hound, retriever or pack dog. They were famously used as stylish coach dogs, running under the rear axle of the coach. Their stamina allowed them to keep up with the horses; their guarding abilities kept the coach and its contents safe.
Dalmatians first came to firehouses as ratters to kill vermin in stables and firehouses. Because of their coach experience, they were soon running alongside, and eventually riding in the fire engines. To this day, many firehouses in Great Britain and the USA have Dalmatians.

Fun things to do:

Dalmatians love to run, especially beside bicycles. Be sure to have an attachment such as a Springer for your bicycle, if you bike with your Dalmatian or any dog. If your dog is only on a leash, he could get tangled in the bike, injuring both of you.
Dals also like to swim, and make good running partners as well, especially for distance runners. They're an all-purpose breed, capable of hunting, search and rescue and even obedience trials (with much patient training)! There are even road dog competitions in keeping with their early use as carriage dogs. During the competitions, the dogs accompany horses or carriages for distances of 12.5 or 25 miles.
They can be good flyball, Frisbee, agility or backpacking dogs, depending on the nature of the individual dog.

What we like about this breed:

This breed is active and energetic, and it enjoys the outdoors. Dalmatians are people oriented dogs that like to spend lots of time with their families. They love to play, especially as puppies.

Health Risks:

Hereditary deafness is prevalent in Dalmatians. It cannot be cured out of the breed, and all bloodlines suffer from this affliction. About 8% are born completely deaf, while over 20% are born with some kind of hearing problem. Dogs with hearing impairments are more likely to have behavioral problems.
The Dalmatian also has a unique urinary system. They are susceptible to urolithiasis (bladder stones) because their urine contains uric acid rather than urea or allantoin. Bladder/kidney stones can form from the salts in uric acid. Provide adequate water at all times to lessen the chance of developing urinary stones. Also, avoid foods high in purines, (such as liver) which tend to aggravate formation of uric stones. Consult with your veterinarian about the best diet for a Dalmatian.
Dalmatians also suffer from skin allergies. These allergies appear like a red or pink rash and may look like hives to their skin. These are very itchy for the dog.
Dalmatians may also be more susceptible to hip dysplasia. Be sure to have dogs x-rayed after 2 years of age.

Things to watch out for with this breed:

Dalmatians do poorly as full-time outside dogs because their short hair and sensitive skin makes them susceptible to weather changes. They should not be left outside when the weather is cold. However, Dalmatians are very active and require lots of exercise and activity. In fact, this breed may inadvertently knock down small children because of its often uncontrollable energy. It is therefore necessary that this breed be given a lot of exercise and activity.
In spite of its high-energy level, Dalmatians tend to be emotionally sensitive, often taking 2 to 3 years to mentally mature in spite of their mature physical appearance. Just to prove it, they may sulk like an unreasonable toddler when disciplined. Although, they may be aloof with strangers, are usually not aggressive. And be warned: Dalmatians are stubborn and need consistent firm training. They may be independent.

Misc:

Dalmatians make excellent watchdogs.

Chow Chow Dog,Songshi Quan public domain image for free download

Chow Chow Dog

Height: 18-20 inches

Weight: 50-70 pounds

Size:

Coat: thick and dense

Lifespan:

Description:

Chow chows are independent, remote, even introverted dogs. Chows need adequate exercise, socialization and supervision. They have cat-like aloofness. Although they look quite huggable, Chows do not appreciate constant attention.Chows have very dense coats with a thick neck ruff. They are usually red or black, but may be cream, cinnamon or even blue. Most Chows have ears that prick up and dark eyes. The Chow tail curls over the back.

History:

Chows may have come from the Arctic Circle with human migration moving from there to Mongolia, Siberia and China. Some say the Chow was the original ancestor of the Samoyed, Norwegian Elkhound, Pomeranian and Keeshond. The Chow was originally a hunting and guard dog, kept by Chinese royalty and used for food and clothing by peasants. The origin of the blue/black tongue of the Chow remains a mystery. The Chow came to America from England-and became popular in the 30s' when President Coolidge had a pet Chow.
The dog's name came from the 18th century western sailors who brought the dogs back from Asia in the cargo holds of trade ships. "Chow-Chow" was a slang term applied to the varied cargo carried by these ships. The nickname eventually stuck to the dogs.

Fun things to do:

Chows need lots of exercise but not off-lead exercise. They enjoy romping and walking, and can usually get enough exercise within their own yards. They may not be trustworthy off-leash, because of their tendency to be aggressive to unknown dogs and people.

What we like about this breed:

Chows make excellent watch dogs. Chows are very affectionate to those close to them. They are often one-person dogs.

Health Risks:

Chow chows have a risk in being anesthetized due to the short muzzle. Veterinarians should be aware of this potential problem.
Entropion. Excessive tearing may mean your Chow has entropion, a condition in which the eyelids turn inward.
Heat prostration occurs in Chows with high humidity and temperatures above 80 degrees. Do not leave this breed of dog in a hot or closed in area, especially in the sun.

Things to watch out for with this breed:

Chows are strong willed and stubborn. Socialization should begin at birth. Continual training is necessary to ensure a well-trained dog. Chows can be aggressive with other dogs and people, and may bite the owner if touched unexpectedly. They are especially touchy in hot weather. Because of their strength and often aggressive nature, be very careful of this breed with children. Some individuals will even be aggressive with their own families.

Misc:

Chows need to be brushed at least twice a week. They have a dense undercoat that supports the outer coat and gives it the fluffy appearance. But this undercoat also mats very easily.

Chihuahua Dog public domain image for free download

Chihuahua Dog

Height: Approximately 6-9 inches

Weight: Less than 6 pounds.

Size: tiny, fragile; the tiniest dog you'll find

Coat: short and smooth hair, or longer with ruff,long-tail and feathering. Sheds year round but not seasonally.

Lifespan: The longest living breed, 16-18 years.

Description:

The Chihuahua is the smallest breed of dog in the world, and in fact, are the only "natural" toy breed, which means that their small size not attributable to "breeding down." The average height of these dogs is 5 inches and their average weight is between 2 to 6 pounds. Their coats are soft with colors including white, blonde, fawn, black-and-tan, patched, and a few others. There is a smooth, or short-haired variety and a long-haired one. The two types are distinguished primarily by the long-haired variety having longer hair on its ears, chest, stomach, legs, and tail.

History:

This breed is believed to have its origins in the late Paleozoic period. Originating in Mexico as the Techichi breed, it was bred with small, hairless dogs to produce the modern Chihuahua. Its name comes from the Mexican state of Chihuahua.
Carvings on stones resembling the modern-day Chihuahua were found in the Monastery of Huejotzingo, on the highway from Mexico City to Pueblo. Tourists traveling through Mexico immediately fell in love with the breed.

Fun things to do:

Chihuahua's like to sunbathe. They also prefer to sleep under a cloth or blanket. They're great little walking companions, although the short-haired varieties do not like nor tolerate cold weather.

What we like about this breed:

The Chihuahua is a swift moving, graceful, and energetic dog. Alert and observant, they exhibit many terrier-like qualities. These dogs are a good breed for city and apartment dwellers, and remain extremely loyal to their masters, sometimes protectively so. They are content as long as they are occupied with toys and exploration. Minimal grooming is required for those with smooth coats, but twice a week is recommended for those with longer coats. These dogs are highly companionable and don't need much obedience training, and are so tiny that they can be trained to use a litter box like a cat does. In addition, these pets make excellent watch dogs and have the longest life-span of any breed of dog.

Health Risks:

These dogs are susceptible to slipped stifle, a joint disorder. In addition, as they age they are also prone to weak knees. Fractures, jawbone disorders, rheumatism, eye problems, heart disease, and tooth and gum weaknesses may also be associated with aging. These dogs are often born with a soft spot on top of the head that doesn't always close.

Things to watch out for with this breed:

These dogs are high-strung, and bark easily. In addition, they don't adapt easily to new environments or to new people, which often leads to the barking. When this dog is provoked, it can be bold with much bigger dogs. Chihuahuas tend to be vulnerable to the cold, and can also be hard to housebreak.
If they are not properly and frequently socialized, they can be nippy with strangers. Often, they are not good with children unless they were raised with them. Because these dogs are small, they may not be good to have with small children, since they could be easily injured from any rough playing. If these dogs are socialized well, and are given short, frequent and gentle obedience sessions, they will often be much calmer and more confident.
Owners often tend to carry these little toy dogs around so much that the dogs can become timid and snappish if they are out of the owner's arms. Proper socialization of the pup cannot be stressed enough. Socializing your dog often, including having others handle it frequently as a pup. Take your Chihuahua for frequent walks (yes, that does mean letting it walk on the ground), so that it remains confident when it is out of your arms.

Bullmastiff Dog

Bullmastiff Dog public domain image for free download

Bullmastiff Dog

Height: These dogs stand 24 to 27 inches tall.

Weight: The Bullmastiff normally weigh between 100 to 130 pounds.

Size:

Coat:

Lifespan: The lifespan of the Bullmastiff is ten years or less.

Description:

The Bullmastiff is smaller in size than the English Mastiff, and has a more compact face. These dogs are strong and alert, powerful and active. The foundation breeding was comprised of 60% Mastiff and 40% Bulldog. As a result, these dogs are almost always docile and well-mannered, but also very serious. They are normally fawn, red, or brindle, and they always have a black muzzle. In addition, their ears hang down, and their nose and eyes are always black.

History:

The Bullmastiff was developed in England in the mid to late 1800's as a cross of 60% Mastiff and 40% Bulldog. They were mainly night watchdogs, often called "the gamekeeper's night- dog," as they attacked poachers and pinned them to the ground.

Fun things to do:

Because the Bullmastiff was trained to pin down would-be poachers, aggressive games are not recommended. These dogs do require a lot of exercise, however, so long walks or free-roaming spaces are ideal.

What we like about this breed:

These dogs require little trimming or grooming, and are not very active indoors. They love the open spaces of the country or the suburb. They are tremendously strong dogs, developed originally as protection dogs against poachers. They will, however, integrate well with other dogs. This breed responds well to early, firm obedience training, and are best for active, experienced owners.

Health Risks:

The Bullmastiff is a short lived breed, normally ten years or less. These dogs are susceptible to hip dysplasia, bloat, serious tumors, and eyelid abnormalities. Also of concern are osteochondritis dissecans (O.C.D., a joint disorder), hypo-thyroidism, renal failure, and lymphoma sarcoma.

Things to watch out for with this breed:

These dogs will seldom back down once aroused, and should be accustomed to strangers at an early age. They can be stubborn and tremendously strong, refusing commands from family members who have not yet established control over them. Caution should be taken if you have other, smaller pets. Exercise, early socialization, and full obedience training are required. In addition, these dogs may drool.

Misc:

Aggressive games are not recommended with this breed!

Bull Terrier Dog

Bull Terrier Dog public domain image for free download

Bull Terrier Dog

Height: 15-22 inches

Weight: 35-80 pounds

Size:

Coat:

Lifespan: approximately 10 years

Description:

This is a medium sized dog that comes in two color varieties: all white and colored. To show the breed, the colored varieties are preferably brindle, black and tan, or fawn with white markings on the head, chest, neck, feet and tip of tail. Bull Terriers need plenty of exercise but can live in the city or country. They can be very aggressive with other dogs, so it is important to keep them on the leash.

History:

Developed in England from crosses of bulldogs and an extinct white terrier. They were dog fighters, but it is NOT the Pit Bull Terrier. The ferocity of the Pit Bull has been bred out of the Bull Terrier.

Fun things to do:

Bull Terriers are very active dogs. They love to play with almost anything, so it is important to provide them with large suitable play objects. Do not give them old shoes because they may assume that any shoes are their playthings.

What we like about this breed:

This breed is intelligent and often witty. They are considered to be not only friendly and people-loving, but also strong, agile and courageous. Due to their short-coat, they also have low grooming requirements.

Health Risks:

They are susceptible to inherited diseases, patella problems and skin problems.

Things to watch out for with this breed:

Due to their bulkiness and strength, Bull Terriers can overpower young children in their play. They can be very aggressive toward other pets, and will chase or hunt smaller pets such as cats or small dogs. Sometimes considered to have a stubborn personality, Bull Terriers always assume the dominant position. In extreme cases, some become possessive or jealous of their families.

Misc:

This is not the dog for everyone. If you are going to get one, be sure that you want a headstrong, aggressive dog in your home before acquiring a Bull Terrier. Also, be forewarned, they will eat absolutely anything.
