Download or read book The Complete Guide to Basset Hounds written by Cheryl Jerabek and published by LP Media Inc. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Find out the answers to your most pressing questions about Basset Hounds, such as: Is a Basset Hound the right breed for my lifestyle? What should I expect from a Basset breeder or rescue group? How do I prepare my home for a curious, nose-driven pup? Which training methods are most effective for training Basset Hounds? The Basset Hound has an unmistakable profile. They have the long, square snout, muscular body, and loose skin of their Bloodhound ancestors, but with short legs and a long, sabre-shaped tail. The olfactory ability of this breed is second only to the Bloodhound itself, and they are unrelenting once they have caught a scent. Both the short legs and the long, upwardly curved tail—which is tipped in white—are designed to make these stout hounds easier for hunters to follow on foot. Although they are enthusiastic hunters in the field, they tend to be calmer and more relaxed at home, sometimes to the point of laziness. Bassets are particularly agreeable animals, both with people and with other dogs, and they make excellent family companions as well as exemplary hunting hounds. They are typically gentle with young children, have a very pleasant disposition, and are comfortable in the role of everyone’s best friend and confidant. Basset Hounds aren’t right for everyone, however, as they can be stubborn, tend to be highly skilled counter-surfers, and frequently howl when left alone for long periods. The Complete Guide to Basset Hounds is a treasure-trove of information about this distinctive breed of hound dog. Everything you need to help ensure that your friendly Basset Hound pup develops into a well-behaved, healthy, and confident canine companion can be found within these pages. From your first search for a breeder to your precious pooch’s senior years, the indispensable knowledge compiled within will have you reaching for this extensive guidebook over and over again. This comprehensive book covers nearly every aspect of raising a Basset Hound, including: The history of the Basset Hound The challenges of living with a scenthound Where to find a good Basset Hound breeder or rescue Choosing the right Basset Hound for you Preparing your home for a new dog—inside and out What to expect the first few days home The importance of rules and boundaries in the Basset’s life Best practices for grooming your Basset Hound Diet and nutrition for the Basset Hound Dealing with separation anxiety and other problem behaviors Exercising and training your stubborn Basset Hound Breed-specific health and wellness information for all stages How to resist the Basset Hound’s legendary “sad eyes” Caring for the aging Basset Hound Basset Hounds are one of the most amicable of dog breeds, but not always the most cooperative. They are both exceptional tracking dogs, steadfast in their ability to follow a trail, and excellent family companions, calm, affectionate, and not overly boisterous. They are stubborn, slobbery, and worth every second. This exhaustive manual will give you all the tools you need to ensure your Basset Hound’s health and happiness, from their first day with you until their last. This comprehensive guidebook is a must-have addition for anyone considering bringing a Basset Hound into their lives.

Download or read book The Invention of the Modern Dog written by Michael Worboys and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2018-10-15 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the thoroughly Victorian origins of dog breeds. For centuries, different types of dogs were bred around the world for work, sport, or companionship. But it was not until Victorian times that breeders started to produce discrete, differentiated, standardized breeds. In The Invention of the Modern Dog, Michael Worboys, Julie-Marie Strange, and Neil Pemberton explore when, where, why, and how Victorians invented the modern way of ordering and breeding dogs. Though talk of "breed" was common before this period in the context of livestock, the modern idea of a dog breed defined in terms of shape, size, coat, and color arose during the Victorian period in response to a burgeoning competitive dog show culture. The authors explain how breeders, exhibitors, and showmen borrowed ideas of inheritance and pure blood, as well as breeding practices of livestock, horse, poultry and other fancy breeders, and applied them to a species that was long thought about solely in terms of work and companionship. The new dog breeds embodied and reflected key aspects of Victorian culture, and they quickly spread across the world, as some of Britain’s top dogs were taken on stud tours or exported in a growing international trade. Connecting the emergence and development of certain dog breeds to both scientific understandings of race and blood as well as Britain’s posture in a global empire, The Invention of the Modern Dog demonstrates that studying dog breeding cultures allows historians to better understand the complex social relationships of late-nineteenth-century Britain.
