BEHAVIOUR/TEMPERAMENT:
The Afghan wind and was a single Hunter in his homeland. Ensure a certain degree of independence explained it in his character remains today, which makes it sometimes hard to educate him to obedience. Although the Afghan Hound learns with love, he is rarely do patience, consistency and occasional severity, to obey, but on the first or second word, however, reasonably in house and garden, what people he want, unless that's true with his own wishes. It varies but usually completely, leaving him walking off the leash. The Afghan Hound can run very fast out of sight and at first almost never comes back on call or whistle, before he himself believes that it is well enough for him. You should not delude himself only, that you can change this behavior with violence. You would have only a fearful dog that will follow any more.
His character break is breaking his pride, and this dignified pride is its charm.
So affectionate and loving the Afghan Hound is its people, so tightly he is a hunting dog! The hunting passion is an inherited, an essential feature of his character and belongs to him like his waywardness. You must expect and to resign if they chose him as housemates.
The Afghan Hound loves his people very much and is patient, particularly he loves children and is everywhere happy, if he should be there. Only in close contact he makes with his people recognize the charm of his being. It is self-evident, that he should not be kept in the kennel, mostly anyway, definitely not. He is smart and sometimes very clever, so it can happen that he tricks with his people. Almost all adult Afghan dogs are alert and feel responsible for their family and everything that entails. They are not Barkers. Because of its already mentioned good memory, forget never people and situations that happened to them good or evil and all for you special events.
History
In the home of the Afghan wind dog there were essentially two different strokes, from the landscape marked, in which they were used to hunt. The Hound of the mountains, which chased also ibex, was smaller, shorter and wider, more angled and more hairy. He needed for his work force, agility and jumping ability, special speed, however, was not the most important for this. Unlike of the hunters for steppes and plateaus. He was bigger, longer, less angular and slightly hairy, lighter but faster the Saluki, rather similar to the hunters of the mountains. Both strikes have been held primarily for their use-value, according to their ability to hunt or occasionally bred.
Although the export of Afghan wind dog penalty was forbidden, but some to England came at the end of the 19th century. In 1907 Captain John Barff brought then an Afghan Hound of excellent quality the males ZARDIN to England. He was the model of all accepted after the first standard for the breed was created in 1912.
in 1920, major Bell Murray brought a group of Afghan dogs to England, who looked completely different than ZARDIN. The dogs came from the flat part of Afghanistan, while the mountain type showed ZARDIN. Nevertheless, all living in the world today Afghan dogs except in Afghanistan go back more or less on these imports, the one steppe and lowland Afghans or named after their Bell-Murray Afghans importer.
in 1929, the small male Sirdar of Ghazni came to England. The Afghan Hound was from the Kennel of the former King of Afghanistan Amanulla. He was a typical representative of the mountain type, and has been called the best Afghan Hound since ZARDIN. He was imported by Mrs. Amps, whose kennel name of Ghazni was the name this type, so it is since called the Ghazni or mountain type.
We saw first Afghan Hounds on a dog show in 1932. In the same year the first Afghan Hound in the English Greyhound stud book was entered, the first litter registered in the Registrated fell in 1940.
Hair
The ribs, on the front and hindquarters, and on the flanks of long and very fine texture. In adult dogs from the shoulders on backwards and short along the saddle and sealing. Long, with a distinctive, silky hair from the forehead to the back ("top-knot").
Hair shortly before your face. Ears and runs well hairy. The front mittelfuesse may be bald. The coat must develop naturally. Any reference to cutting or shearing is to punish.
Specific
The Afghan myelopathy is a probably hereditary disease of the spinal cord, which leads to a complete paralysis of the limb.
Hi Zue,
wir haben unsere Hündin kastrieren lassen. D.h. die Eierstöcker wurden komplett entfernt. Ich kenn jetzt leider keine "unbehandelten" Hündinnen als Halter, deshalb is es ein bisschen schwer das im Vergleich zu beurteilen. Unsere Schäfer-Hündin ist auf jeden Fall ziemlich umgänglich sowohl mit anderen Hunden als auch mit anderen Menschen.
Eigentlich ist sie schon fast ein wenig zu vertrauensseelig und kuschelt fast mit jedem, der uns zu Hause besucht. Und da kenn ich aber ganz gaaaaaanz andere Schäferhunde. Vielleicht ist es auch so, dass bei uns irgendeine liebe Rasse mit reingezüchtet wurde und wir nichts davon wissen :)
Ich würde auf jeden Fall wieder kastrieren lassen, da ich das Gefühl habe, dass unsere sehr viel umgänglicher als andere Schäfer ist. Nur ganz selten reagiert sie ohne ersichtlichen Grund ziemlich aggressiv auf andere Hündinnen. Teilweise auch schon wenn Sie die gar sieht, sondern nur wittert.
ich hoffe das hilft Dir. Viel Spaß!
