| Gear Heads Moderator   |  Third Biology Class  Hi all! The professor Val is back! At first, we are studing the animal planet. The animal planet is very big, we know. But the Biology is biggest!  I'll lead you all for the better understanding on this subject in an easy language. Any problem with my English, please ask. One more thing ... before begin the class, could you please fill the presence list? 1- 2- 3- 4- 5- 6- 7- 8- 9- 10- Dogs! The dog is one of the most popular pets in the world. It ordinarily remains loyal to a considerate master, and because of this the dog has been called man's best friend. Class distinctions between people have no part in a dog's life. It can be a faithful companion to either rich or poor. Compare:  This is Katherine and her dog on the outskirts of Nicaragua. Gisele Bundchen and her female dog named "vida" (in portuguese means "life")A dog fits easily into family life. It thrives on praise and affection. When a master tells a dog that it is good, the animal happily wags its tail. But when a master scolds a dog, it skulks away with a sheepish look and with its tail tucked between its legs. See the pics:  Imagine you angry with this beautiful, wonderful, marvelous baby - baby - baby - cute creature!  Now, try to be angry with this one!!! People in the city as well as those in other areas can enjoy a dog. Medium-size or small dogs are best suited for the confines of the city. Large dogs need considerable exercise over a large area.  Poodles are very good for flats and small houses. These ones are Toy Poodles. This is a Cane Corso. Of course you will not want it in your apartment. In this case the dog is bigger than your house.  Homework: For the next class, I'll tell you somethings about the main dog breeds. Prepare yourselves because I'll make some questions about the subjects! Don't forget to sign the presence list!!!  See you tomorrow. |

| Gear Heads Moderator | Dog Breeds: top 10 Labrador Retriever  The Labrador Retriever is a double coat breed. The outer coat is straight, short, very dense, and hard in texture. The under coat is soft, weather-resistant, and protects this breed from cold, all types of ground cover, and water. The color of the coat comes in chocolate, black, and yellow. This breed is an average shedder. Yorkshire Terrier - Yorkie  The Yorkshire Terrier is a lovely lap dog that much prefers to be held on their owner's lap all day. They have a dose of attitude combined with a bright and playful nature. The Yorkshire Terrier is a true and loyal companion. German Shepherd  This breed was developed in the 19th century by Max Von Stephanitz who is considered to be the father of the German Shepherd. Revered for their versatility as companion and for their dedication to work, this breed has the distinction of being the first dog ever used as a guide for the blind. Today the German Shepherd is one of the most popular breeds in the world. Golden Retriever  Oh my God!!! Look at this cute creature!!!  The Golden Retriever was developed in Britain during the 1800's. The man responsible for this illustrious breed, Lord Tweedmouth, wanted a dog that was loyal, kind, spirited, and energetic. He also wanted a dog with a love for water and the ability to retrieve. Golden Retrievers are the embodiment of beauty and brains. Beagle  This is Snoopy! The Beagle was originally bred for hunting purposes and does remarkably well. Being a scent hound, this breed has the tendency to follow his nose and ignore anything and everything so obedience training at an early age is a must. The Beagle originated as a cross between the Harrier and many other hounds in England. This breed does best when hunting hare, pheasant, or quail. Boxer  The Boxer originated in Germany in the late 19th century. This breed's name was supposedly derived from the "boxing" motion they made with their front paws. Boxers are stocky and medium in size with strong jaws and a powerful bite. They are widely used in search and rescue, police work, and military work. Dachshund  The Dachshund was originally developed in German hundreds of years ago. They were originally bred for hunting Badger, hence the name Dachshund. "Dachs" is the German word for Bader. The elongated body and the shortened legs were bred into this dog to dig the prey out and go inside their burrows forcing them to leave their dens. The Miniature variety was bred to hunt hare and stoat. This breed has also been known to hunt foxes and otters along with the badger. Poodle  This ancient breed appears in three varieties: Standard, Miniature, and Toy. The Standard is the oldest. The Poodle was originally developed to be a water dog that retrieved game fowl. Favored by royalty as well as gypsies, this versatile breed was able to master many tasks and trades and maintain a reputation as a fine companion. Shih Tzu  The Shih Tzu is often referred to as a "small lion". They originated in Tibet, but are most associated with China where they were highly revered as a palace pet and prized companion. The Shih Tzu is an active, happy, and affectionate breed. Bulldog  Descended from the Asiatic mastiff, the Bulldog was developed in Great Britain. Their primary function was that of a participant in the blood sport of bull baiting. They were also used against bears, other vicious carnivores, and lions. During the 19th century purebred Bulldogs were very rare due to the enactment of the anti-baiting laws. Today the Bulldog is a family companion and show dog. Next class, cats! See you there. Remember: no presence list, no class! Only Eros signed the list. |

I searched and the results were 20 dog breeds based on the opinion of the owners. But from the 11, some breeds are not well known and I prefer to list only the top 10. | |
