  • JACK RUSSELL TERRIER CLUB of AMERICA) Is a Type of Working Terrier That Meets Those Conformational Standards That Are Functionally Sound for Earth Work
    The TRUE JRT The JRT as recognized by the JRTCA (JACK RUSSELL TERRIER CLUB OF AMERICA) is a type of working terrier that meets those conformational standards that are functionally sound for earth work. The True Jack Russell Terrier may be any height between 10" and 15" (at the shoulder), it may vary in coats, markings, type, and for sure personality... they are ALL real Jack Russell Terriers. There is no "ideal"... the "ideal" is what suits their owner for what they want/need to do with their terrier. That is the uniqueness of this diverse terrier. The diversity within the JRTCA breed standard is what makes the Jack Russell Terrier suitable for a variety of working and performance abilities - in contrast with the narrow, cosmetic breed standards of many show breeds. The "Russell Terrier" and the "Parson Russell Terrier" are both variants of the Jack Russell Terrier made into "separate breeds" by the American Kennel Club (AKC). They are variants of the original Jack Russell Terrier as always supported by the JRTCA. The JRTCA standard includes the full range of sizes needed for earth work. It is to be known our standard is to allow a terrier to follow the red fox to ground. The dog needed the drive and structure to mirror the agile intelligent fox. The Jack Russell Terrier had to be able to outsmart the fox and have the courage to do so for the handler as a team. The true Jack Russell Terrier has been preserved as a working dog. Every effort has been made to eliminate and prevent genetic defects/faults within the JRTCA registry.

  • Illustrated Guide Prepared by the American Lhasa Apso Club Breed Standard Committee the American Lhasa Apso Club Illustrated Guide to the Standard
    TheAmerican Lhasa Apso Club The Lhasa Apso Illustrated Guide Prepared by The American Lhasa Apso Club Breed Standard Committee The American Lhasa Apso Club Illustrated Guide to the Standard The Lhasa Apso standard is an attempt to define an ideal specimen and is a descriptive guide by which a Lhasa Apso should be judged. The standard is not designed for the person who has never seen a Lhasa Apso but is meant as a description for those who are familiar with the breed and dogs in general. It is important, therefore, to offer this guide as a more in-depth study of the unique qualities that set the Lhasa Apso apart from other breeds and, at the same time, emphasize the characteristics that cause the Lhasa Apso to be representative of the breed. CHARACTER - GAY AND ASSERTIVE, BUT CHARY OF STRANGERS. Originating in the lonely and isolated reaches of the Himalayan mountains, Lhasa Apsos reflect their Tibetan heritage in many characteristic ways. Relatively unchanged for hundreds of years, these sturdy little mountain dogs are fastidious by nature and are guardians, especially within their domain. When looking his best, the Lhasa Apso exhibits a regal attitude. He is seldom a pet but rather a companion, often a clown, but never a fool. Lhasa exhibiting its regal attitude Lhasa playing in the snow Historically in Tibet, his primary function was that of a guardian inside Buddhist monasteries and homes of Tibetan nobility, where his intelligence, acute hearing and natural instinct for being able to identify friend from stranger made him well-suited for this role.

  • Visualising the Scottish Deerhound Standard
    VISUALISING THE SCOTTISH DEERHOUND STANDARD “ The most perfect creature of heaven.” -Sir Walter Scott (The Talisman) A presentation on the Scottish Deerhound by Barbara Heidenreich (www.fernhill.com) for the St Lawrence Region Dog Judges Association, August 8, 2012 1 Historical Notes on Function: The Scottish Deerhound is a breed whose antecedents may be as old as 2000 years depicted on sculpted stones dating to 800 A.D. and orally in Celtic legends. Historically, records as early as 1563 describe the “tainchells” held by Mary Queen of Scots where beaters would round up to 2,000 red deer and drive them for the royal event....... “the Queen ordered one of the best dogs let loose on the deer”. On that day it was recorded that 360 deer were killed and 5 wolves. The “deerhound” antecedent was described in 1570 as follows: “There is a kind of hunting dog which they call “leoporarius” and “emissaries” and also “vertragus”; we seek out those which are long in body, light and speedy, with short straight legs, with sparkling eyes, with muscular chest and with the rest of the members on the slender side, except those having rather broad hindquarters are more recommended, and with a long, light and smooth tail. Nevertheless we have seen some brought from Norway and the island of Thule of uncommon speed which in tail and body are quite rough haired. But to say the truth these are not used for their sagacity but for their speed. Of this kind are the British, valued for speed as well as strength, except that by their big body they are more suitable for chasing stag.” Source: Conrad Heresbach, Cologne, 1570 (later the dogs in this passage are described by William Dansey who adds in a footnote to his translation of Arrian published in 1831, “ ..the latter are doubtless Caledonian deer-greyhounds”) Two elements in particular have formed the Deerhound as a distinct breed: Its quarry: the Red Deer (Cervus elaphus), the largest land mammal in Britain, has a size in the Scottish Highlands somewhere around that of a white-tailed deer.
