Life expectancy

This dog has a lot of names and ancient story: Karst, Krashskaya, Kraska or Istrian Shepherd Dog has long settled in the mountains of Slovenia. There, her paws adapted to a complex landscape, and character - to potential hazards. Reliable guard and shepherd, today she took the role of a companion dog. The breed retains an independent temper, and the owner will have to confront the dog throughout the life of the dog. But few people are compared with the Crane Shepherd in endurance and official qualities. Unpretentious shaggy dog \u200b\u200bwill become an excellent bodyguard and a security guard at home. The main thing is not to deprive her freedom of movement and control stubborn behavior.

Breed history

The Breed of the Karst Shepherds entered the list of national treasures of Slovenia. The first mention of its representatives dated the XVII century, however, in the twentieth century. They remain little-known abroad. Since 1939, the Slovenian Shepherds was called "Illyrian", but then within the same breed, two separate branches were recognized. One of them was called Sarplanskaya, another - Crane. The ancestors of both breeds belonged to wolves, which manifests itself in the nature of such a pet. In general, Istrian Shepherds are not pets, their elements are a natural landscape of any complexity. However, dogs from the Mountain Massif Carst today are breeding for the protection of the private sector. And only those owners who were lucky enough to get a rare puppy.

Appearance

Shaggy and athletic dog with an almost square housing and a long, saber-shaped tail. The Cracial Shepherd has a massive head with a smooth transition to a short face. Head decorates a dark mask, thick wool painted in gray with a metallic tint. Long strands decorate the back surface of the legs, tail, create the neck of the mane. The dog's woolen cover fits tightly to the body. The eyes of brown or karen color have a almond shape, the ears are triangular. The impressive appearance of the Istrian Shepherd serves as a convincing argument even for the wild beast. It is not surprising that it is bypassing the side of the villain from the human breed.

Character and temperament

Pride and independence are combined by Crane Shepherds with good-natured behavior. With unauthorized people, they are always serious and suspicious, carefully observe on a stranger and protect their own (TO Basie Master) property. In the family circle, these are funny pets, which do not tolerate long loneliness. Representatives of the breed are endowed with a balanced temperament, they think about solutions that they are accustomed themselves. But when you need to act immediately, the Crane Shepherd does not take courage and courage. For official duties, dogs from aspass are very responsible.

Health and illness

Istrian Shepherds belong to healthy dog \u200b\u200bbreeds. All their body is adapted to complex climate and difficult habitat. Therefore, such domestic pets bypass even scratches - including thanks to the special shape and covering the pads on the paws. Obviously, it does not remove the need to vaccinate the dog. Save good health over the ten or twelve years of life will help her balanced nutrition and constant motor activity.

Freedom-loving rocks will gladly exchange place in the apartment on a street booth. Istrian Shepherds need a big space in the yard, as well as walks in nature. Dog paws are adapted to the crossed area, and fur "pants" - to different weather. It is important to clean the dog's thick wool regularly. Craska Shepherd can get used to a domestic cat and a bird, but not with neighboring animals. It will diligently protect each sheep in the herd, and without it will require other physical exertion. The owner of the service breed must be remembered that the dog without work feels bad and begins to spoil everything around.

Dresserny, Trenuthannya

The "wolf" genes of the Crane Shepherd show not in favor of light training. This brave protector of the herd will also be zealously protecting its independence. What is the whole life. From puppy age, the owner needs to be approved by its authority to raise the behavior of the dog. Roughness and physical impact only will add anger, she will never forget the offense. Therefore, the training of the Karst Shepherd is a complex harmony of strictness and sensitivity. There are early socialization and persistent education, which is under the power of the experienced owner, but not a newcomer.

Homemade representatives of the Eastrian Shepherd breed keep the habits of nutritional dogs. Namely - unpretentiousness in the menu. "Horses" from Slovenian Karst is better to offer natural dishes. Its diet consists of a meat base, which is complemented by fish, croups and vegetables. A balanced set of products does not always provide sufficient flow of vitamins, they are added to food dogs in the form of special drugs. Do not experience the teeth and digestion of the Crack Shepherd by bones, as well as sweets and yeast baking.

On the time of the appearance of first pets, we know very little, there are practically no confirmed information about them. Neither the gods, nor the chronicles on the period of life of humanity, when we were able to tame wild animals. It is believed that in the Stone Age of the ancient people had domesticated living creatures, the ancestors of today's pets. The time when a person got modern pets science remains not known, as well as an unknown formation of today's domestic animals as a view.

Scientists suggest that every pet has its own wild progenitor. The proof of this is the archaeological excavations produced on the ruins of the ancient settlements of people. When excavations, bones belonging to the pets of the ancient world were found. So it can be argued that even in such a distant era of the life of mankind, we were accompanied by domesticated animals. Today there are types of pets that are not found at all in the wild.

Many today's wild animals are the wild animals by human fault. For example, we take America or Australia as a vivid proof of this theory. Almost all pets, these continents were brought from Europe. These animals found fertile ground for life and development. An example of this can serve a hare or rabbit in Australia. Due to the fact that on this continent there are no natural predators dangerous for this species, they have multiplied in huge quantities and wild. Since all rabbits were domesticated and brought by Europeans for their needs. Therefore, it can be said with confidence that more than half of the wild domesticated animals are ex-pets. For example, wild city cats and dogs.

Be that asst that, the question of the origin of pets should be considered open. As for our pets. That first confirmations in the chronicles and giving the dog and the cat. In Egypt, the cat was a sacred animal, and the dogs were actively used in the ancient era of humanity. There is a lot of evidence. In Europe, the cat appeared in its mass after the cross campaign, but firmly and quickly took a niche of a domestic pet and a hunter on mice. Before them, the Europeans used different animals to catch mice, such as a caress or gene.

Pets are divided into two non-equivalent species.

First view of pets - agricultural animals that bring direct benefits to man. Meat, wool, fur and many other useful things, goods, as well as used by us. But they do not live with a man directly in the same room.

The second view is pet animals (companions), which we see every day in our homes or apartments. They clarify our leisure, entertain us and give us pleasure. And most of them are almost useless with a practical purpose in the modern world, these are for example hamsters, guinea pigs, parrots and many others.

Animals of one species may not rarely refer to both species, both to agricultural animals and to domestic pets. A vivid example of this, rabbits and ferrets keep them at home as pets, but also bred to obtain meat and fur. Also, some of the waste of domestic pets can be used, for example, wool cats and dogs for mating different items or as a heater. For example, a belt of dog wool.

Many doctors note positive effects of domestic lovers on human health and human well-being. We may notice that many families who hold at home some animals note that these animals create comfort, soothe, relieve stress.
