Large poodle

Name the breed may be based on the staronemeckeho Pfudel that znacilo louzi or pond, which may have a relationship with the poodle for hunting waterfowl in particular. Later, however, identify the same word and all other chundelati dogs. The French name for the poodle - caniche - also indicates the origin of the word canichon (duckling).

The history of the emergence of the breed poodle

Already in 1500 described the English naturalist John Cajus dog, whom he named as the aquatic bird dog. As its strong characters and working vnejskove called the dog from the back edge of the tail dohola sheared to pohyblivejsi in water. Fifty years later, builds upon the work of Swiss Cajusovu farmer, physician and naturalist Conrad Gesner, who in his Historia animalum follows: (the dog) is adapted from his nature, especially if it is to the leadership to seek and fishing water birds is odzadu to ridge sheared in order to swim better.

Certainly can not consider this observation as evidence thatthat would be a water bird dog with certainty today's poodle, just as it may be the precursor maltezaku Spaniards or the English waterways. Interestingly, however, is that the classical cut, typical for the poodle, there is, for many centuries and almost unchanged. Actually, go back even further into history than this the beginning of the 16th century: to show, many paintings, statues and tomb reliefs showing excerpts lviho, as he also says it in a time of classical Greek art, or from a later era of the Roman empire. Must be noted in this context as well as some colossal mistake when they have been designated for the classically-cropped poodle staroegyptskych the relief even baboons mantle (Hauck,Der Hund in der bildenden Kunst).

Development poodle

Large poodle is in the opinion of almost all experts, one of the oldest breeds of dogs.

There is no historical evidence, when a man made use of mutations and the structure of the hair gradually bred dogs kudrnatou hair. This poodle still differs from all other breeds, which have straight hair or rolling. Since1719 there are references to dogs with bushy hair, which ovcaci acquire Icelandic poodle crosses with hunting dogs and is used as bird dogs (Femning). Other authors (Strebel) consider that the furry ovcacti dogs were crosses with pasteveckymi - all but one describe the former as a poodle dog with severe head round and short pug nose - which is now considered a gross error.

Teze historians on several theories about the exact origin poodle go to Germany, France and Russia, the three main centers of their breed.

In half of the 18th century it was described as a poodle retriever breed suitable for hunting ducks,with the taste of the water and retrieve from land and training as well as displaying excellent game birds and hares - although not nearly as fast as a bird dog. Handbook of dog breeds from the year 1845 states that ... race poodle is carefully maintained, probably comes from the continent and has the thick curly hair, which covers the whole face and nose and causes the head looks like a short, broad and simple act. After shave the head, however, optically extended.

Almost to the termination poodle was in the 2nd 19th century. The fashion line was the poodle, with long hair twist into spirals. Caring for the hair require a lot of time and effort, the so-calledIn addition to one servant - because the individual lines from each still had to be separated into as powerful springs. Most of these dogs had no enviable life: the move obleccich to prevent dirty dog, damaged lines in games, when in contact with other dogs and even own the scratches. Before feeding the dogs ears for tying a long coat over his head. To coat nevyrudla, dogs often can not be swimming (hence the desire for pure ta), and even they were kept in the basement, that hair is not exposed to light.

In 1896 in Munich was established Pudelclub, informed that began to spread awareness about the breed and the development of pure breeding. During this time behaved poodle uniform size around 40 inches, but at the end of the twenties of the 19thcentury was already set ideal type of a large poodle.

In 1936 registered MKF this breed as a French poodle has been divided into large, small and trpasliciho. Toy poodle standard was granted in 1984. In addition, a large poodle, also sometimes called the king, with sizes from 45 cm to 60 cm, are now in Europe size standards for toy poodle to 28 cm, for trpasliciho to 35, respectively. 36 cm, secondary (low) to 45 cm in height, although in professional circles, there are reservations about the broken only by the size of the breed (see Encyclopedia: breeds of dogs, II. Vol).

The Nazi government were puddle official circles in Germany as a rejection nenemecti dogs,and as such should not unlike other breeds eligible for the allocation of food tickets (award covered only pure-bred dogs). In contrast, the Nazis protezovany composer Richard Wagner, paradoxically poodle loved and owned.

After the II. World War poodle, not only in Germany, new, modnejsi editing, less demanding on time and maintenance, and no obstacles to its masivnejsimu extension. V 60 years has become fashionable as a complement to its detriment forgotten that, in addition to libiveho appearance and has many other talents including hunting.

The appearance of a large poodle under standard

A large poodle must represent increased small poodle and must also show the characteristic (quotations from the current standard in 1991).By Katrin Behrendove (Pudl: How to properly care for it and understand it) is not the correct wording, as erroneously indicated that the poodle came up big in a small poodle. In doing so, the puddle were statnejsi constitution with a corresponding height, ie between 50 and 60 centimeters. About the size poodle dogs and even the older literature refers only to terms such as small, large or particularly a large dog. When in 1880 the provisions of the first historic breed standard, show the height to 70 cm and 6 kg in weight. The wording of this part of the rule speaks to the variety of smaller breeds of the major is easier breeding large breeds of small to carry on the contrary, the risk of significant errors of farming.

It is the size of the existing limited from 60 to 62 cm tolerance almost caused extinction of large breed poodle with us. In the United States and Britain is a long time to hear the call for increasing the limit to a maximum of 71 cm and the rule that prices would continue to be champions should not be granted only by size but also according to nature.

According to this standard may be the height of a large poodle in the tap 45 to 60 cm with a tolerance of 2 cm. Bonitacni Rules Club and Friends of the farmer determines Kohoutkova poodle poodle large height above 45 cm to 62 cm. According to the Regulations is a minimum age for bonitaci 18 months. It is interesting - toy,dwarf and small poodle to border bonitace 15 months.

Construction of body (i) a large poodle is harmonic, quadratic, with the body longer than the height at the withers. It has a short ridge, and relatively broad chest. The head is perched high and proudly erect, oblong, with round jaws. The angle between the nose and face is inexpressive, strong mouth. The eyes are slightly skewed and have a sparkling expression. Eye color is black or dark brown (with black, white, silver and Aprikot poodle) or dark amber (in brown). Slechte covered with long curly hair and long, up to koutkum mouth. Paws oval between your fingers and with floating pads of hard skin and strong. Tail obliquely erect.

Skin is velvety smooth and the color of hair,only white puddle have goldfish skin.

Unlike most other breeds with fur with undercoat, where pesiky overlapping subset and protects it from moisture, on the contrary, the poodle underfur pesiky overlap.

Color: In the year 1880 has been recognized only the color black, white and brown. Later there was also the extension of other varieties of color, especially silver, and Aprikot strakatych - either in a combination of black and white (harlequin), or a black and tan. Newly appear red puddle.

Nature

If the poodle is a cheerful, friendly, charming and intelligent, it was mentioned. Pudl is strictly a family dog. If it does not have to master time, attention should nevynucuje and calmly wait. He loves the movement and walking,is fast and nimble.

Swiftness poodle, along with their exceptional ucenlivosti benefited in the past various jarmarecni jugglers and does so even today's circus and variety artists. To learn all the kouskum poodle is not so great art, because the poodle learn like a lot of things domysli and other odpozoruje.

Poodle is a lively, social animal, which one rarely perish.

Education

For maximum ucenlivost poodle is a great training easy, the different pieces and I willingly performs. From an early age it is necessary to respect the principle of consistency. Breeder can not give in to his pritulnosti and loveliness, and must insist on poslechnuti commands.

In addition to basic skills (cistotnost, to hear his name, to walk on a leash at your feet,listen to basic commands - to the leg, sit, lie, instead, stay and drop, disembarking from the means of transport only on command), and strict prohibitions (nezebrat of food, and not to anything nekrast from other people) can easily learn another poodle kouskum, even those that other breeds can not cope: jump over the bar, aportovani, sports performance, agility or flyball. Initially poodle exercises exercises for wounds, and later for their own pleasure.

The procedure for training is different from training other breeds, even if the poodle is easier and faster. This is because the poodle looking forward to perform the tasks assigned. A dog should be practicing every day, but only so long as the interest of the exercises. The best training for the period before feeding. Pieces that you can dog,should be repeated often and meet the dog praise. Verbal commands, it is appropriate to accompany the simple gestures, which will facilitate the control of the dog at a distance or in old age, when it deteriorates hearing.

Criticism for neposlechnuti must be followed immediately that the dog understands the link.

Nutrition

Only a balanced diet in adequate quantities ensure poodle good condition. They must not only be fed dog, but to supply his body with all necessary nutrients. That Canis survived thousands of years long and well developed to the present day, suggests that as a feral beast stravovaly be: not just meat but the bones and the contents of stomachs and intestines of animals caught bylozravych. All this provides predecessors dog required a balanced diet including carbohydrates,minerals and vitamins, and dnesim farmers an idea of how food should look like their dogs.

Home meal preparation:

The farmer who decides to prepare his poodle meals at home, must have a solid knowledge of what and when (understood in what stage of life dog) dog administered and in what quantity: protein, 25 to 50 percent, mostly in meat, fish, cheese or tvarohovych cheese; carbohydrates to 45% (oat and wheat flakes, rice, corn, noodles, bread or wholemeal bread), 5% fat (meat or vegetable oil), and minerals, trace elements and vitamins, added to food through food supplements. Meat for dogs in general and particularly for large poodle must always be cooked to avoid the risk of diseases, lean,best beef, veal and horsemeat, fish (fillet without bones), and wild poultry. Viscera may be an adequate substitute for more expensive muscle, but contain more pollutants and are therefore recommended only once a week. Attention should be given to the raw liver and spleen, as acting laxative.

Prepared meals:

By contrast, pre-training, purchased food is simple, fast and, moreover, the manufacturer guarantees the balance of everything is to contain the dog food. Keepers buy either canned dog or granular feed. Because canned contain more water, the dogs usually taste - but the farmer needs to invest more money than the dry and semi-dry food, as well as demands for space during storage are higher. Dogs who are fed canned,must get something stronger to chew: dog chewing gum, a special bone from buffalo skin or resistant toys to keep healthy teeth.

Granulated diet contains a minimum of water and is therefore more concentrated, energy and financially advantageous, in undamaged and unopened original package also durable. If the dog accustomed to the canned and dry feed intake now has problems, and dry feed in advance soak into water or broth, in order to better chutnalo. Done diet breeders, if possible, always buy the same brand and always depending on what phase of life with a dog. A wide range of food suitable from steneciho to senior age for working dogs, the nursing females, or vice versa for reducing diet offers such as company PRO PAC is the number of complete nutrition.

Dry food should always be supplemented by plenty of water to which a dog must have access 24 hours a day. It may not be ice. It is important to draw attention to the milk, which is not only for the poodle, but for all dogs, drink inappropriate. Not only water but also food for the poodle may be either ice or hot.

The recommended dose for a large poodle in the case of dry food about 400 grams per day, in the case of feeding canned kilogram per day to the regime and the home meal from 750 to 850 grams of meat and 150 to 250 grams baby. What Nesna dog to half an hour, should be removed. Dog navykne you observe some time in the feeding regime, which reward the farmer that even voiding the dog will run only during the scheduled walks.In addition to the remains of food will not be riding nezkysne food and flies, so will not be able to operate a dog intestinal or digestive problems. Dog dish vymyvame boiling water without detergents. Unused cans may be kept substantially in the fridge, and to a maximum of two days.

Meals for the poodle is nekorenena and not salty, so as not to unduly burdens the kidneys and should be thoroughly eliminate all sweets. The cause in addition to the negative impact on the teeth also overweight.

Excess causes a man and food, which gives the dog. Excess is the originator of many other possible problems and diseases, despite the fact that the large poodle obezniho is definitely a nice view.

Movement

Minimum requirements for the movement of large poodle is at least two daily walk.Walking tirelessly aportuji. Movement and play are big puddle like in advanced age. Controlled and can jump high obstacles. While the middle and small types of poodle problem is not open the door from the jump, to a large poodle can far dustojnejsim way.

One of the most popular activities is the next big poodle aportovani and jai alai. Poodle can easily learn to jump over a barrier on all four, with a little patience to handle soon after the rear legs, and after some time even after the front.

Poodle is a great fit for active people, who will be happy and willing to devote their time. The training and kynologickych circles can be pudlum paid and professionally, and in addition the poodle in the group learn even faster - odpozorovanim.Performance Sports has three degrees of difficulty and a dog breeder and may soon get diplomas, cups and sports awards.

Sport called agility test (skill) is to manage prekazkoveho Parkur. Includes jump over obstacles, proskoceni ring probihani tyckoveho slalom, the transition from swing across the board, crawling through the tunnel fabric or balancing on logs. Dog managed to route without errors and, moreover, within the time limit, it requires not only the interplay between the two partners (man running for the plant next to it), but considerable intelligence and his dog a good physical condition.

Joy of movement makes a big poodle apparent even in a game called flyball. It is a team game four dog teams, which does not breed or the size of dogs. It should be at her practice,poodle but soon realizes what is expected: after lift-off vybehne first dog, jumps four barriers and machines for hurling balls, which is at the end of the runway, seslapne the pedal; tenisak caught and thrown the same way he returned to the objective. Then the start of another dog teams. Runway should be done as quickly as possible three times in succession. Poodle has a distinct pleasure from the game and experiencing it in tension as well as the owner. This sport is to get us from America and Britain over the Nordic countries and it seems that the wait will soon mass popularity especially among poodle.

Care

Caring for poodle is different from the care of other breeds substantially at one point, in the care of the hair. As mentioned above, poodle hair is different from the hair of other breeds,necessarily so different and the care of her. In principle, the principle of care based on the poodle hair that hair initially spiral or. curl, the cesanim zvlni and starts away from the body.

The hair care must be taken not only because of the appearance of a dog, but also for health poodle. It should be time and patience for the daily adjustment of the hair, and every 6 weeks to give money for a trim.

The first cut poodle (so-called baby-cut) to ensure it usually farmer from which the puppy purchased. Shave is hair on the nose and casting, around the eyes, and a small beard on the muzzle. Vystrihana is due to hygiene and hair under the tail. The rest of the body not covered by the puppies, to maintain a warm coat.The dog must get used to cutting from an early age.

While cutting, it is necessary to carry out every six weeks, a majority of experts, combing and brushing should be given to day care. Breeder has for the purpose generally earmarked stable bright spot on the table, which is put non-slip pads. For combing used brushes and combs. Brushes with a rubber cushion to the long hair metal needle, a short coat is suitable small brush with dense ohnutymi needles. Metal combs teeth must have a dual density, with a large poodle at least 4 centimeters long. First kartacuje, then cessions. The best technology is a short brush strokes, so that the hair stood. Combing is performed after the anti-fur,first ridge with sparse and then with hustsimi teeth until the hair smooth and silky. Every place one day will be neglected for the second day of combing the dog's suffering. Poorly maintained zfilcovati hair permanently.

Puppies do not have thick hair so, what is waiting in adulthood and combing should be done only after the surface. The dog must combing according to commands to sit and State.

The other beauty aids are a powerful hair dryer, scissors with rounded tips and shaver with two replaceable heads - two and three millimeters. For cutting poodle, however, be at least Preparatory Course shearing.

Cutting to the exhibition are fixed.In the classic (lvim) excerpts is vystrihana hair on the back part of the body to zebrum and the lower and upper part of blood from the lower eye lids, cheeks, front and rear feet (with the exception CUFFS or community and any motives at the rear of), and also tail, where the leaves oval or round tassel. Ostrsteni the front legs, which may consist of the trousers, is permitted. Mustache is prescribed for all animals.

In a modern style with leaves feathering on all four feet in complying with these directives: cut the bottom of the front limbs, namely from drapku to the height of the first finger, as well as the bottom of the hind limb at the same height as the front. It is allowed to avoid machine only hair on your fingers.Head and tail are cut according to the classic cut, with a modern style with exceptionally leaving more than 1 centimeter long hair on the lower jaw, which must be trimmed parallel to the bottom line of the mouth (called salsify is dim) and permits the omission of the tail mabulky (which, however, partly reflected in the evaluation of the adaptation of the hair). It cuts the hair on the back, to give a layer at least centimeter high. The transition to the ribs and body hair and limbs are gradually extended. Fur on the head evenly sestrihuje into caps. Gradually, excerpts hair in zatylku to create downward slightly conical line. Coat the top of the ears is reduced to no more than third of the length wattles. The lower part of the ear must remain feathering,hair is gradually extended and form a kind of fringe. You may be at the bottom of the trim to a uniform length. Zastrihava also hair on the limbs, in the form of trousers that formed the transition to vystrihanym tlapkam. Length zastrihnute hair is extended upwards, the poodle-sized up to 7 centimeters.

The English cut is a modification of the classical style, where the rear legs and shoulders modeling various motives - such as rings or sleeves and the head is left crest, but not mandatory. The editing is not prescribed mustache.

Cutting according to Standard, the indifferent, does not affect the evaluation shows, all dogs of one class are considered jointly.

In the 20th the 20th century was the fashion editor called karakul.The name was created under karakulske sheep, which is kind of the unborn jehnatek be made fur called Persian. He was sporting a short cut on the back and long in the legs. The exhibition is not recognized by shearing.

Bathing is necessary before each visit to barbers, because only in a well-washed and dried hair cut sits. Puppies in the five months to koupaji rarely. Bathing is a special shampoo for dogs, which gives the skin fat.

More care poodle is very similar to the other breeds. For the care of teeth are suitable, moreover, a healthy diet also chewing the bones of the buffalo skin (such as the prevention of tartar) and can also be a special brush to clean teeth and dog toothpaste,or at least the teeth dog nuzzle a damp cloth. Caring for Paws - dry and cracked pads with vaseline natiraji especially on hot days when the heat salajicim Paws suffer from concrete, stone and asphalt surfaces, or they can develop cracks due to frost and salt action posypovych.

Caring for the ears is more demanding as well as for each breed, which has long ears. Ear must be contacted and a damp cloth to remove dirt. Every two weeks, it is appropriate to come to dog ear mussels a few drops of ear olejicku to dissolve earwax and dirt.The paper then wipe kapesnickem stocenym to kornoutku, never cotton rod.

His cinorodost him spolupomaha keep in good physical and mental condition to the end of life. Good care and love poodle breeders ensure high ten to fifteen full years of life.

Poodle signs of disease may be a large loss of sparks from the eyes, brittle hair and beyond the LiÃ±an, scurf, scab, and many other signs that the farmer should consider.
