Travelling with Your Bichon Frise
The Insider’s Guide To The Bichon Frise Travelling With Your Bichon Frise On the road with your Bichon Frise: As a Bichon Frise owner, you should take special care to see that even if your Bichon Frise is excited to be in the great outdoors, yet it should not lean out of the window or be injured by being flung around the car.. To prevent such an occurrence, you could do the following: Before setting out, give your Bichon Frise a small snack, roughly 1/3 of his normal diet. When you reach your destination, you can give him the rest Use a seat belt or a harness made specially for dogs so that they remain firmly in one place Of course, there are those pet carriers that double up as safety harnesses which you could safely use. But these days, you could also opt for safety sitters that join up with the shoulder seat belt of your car so that it keeps your Bichon Frise from being thrown, in case the car lurches forward rudely. This, as you perhaps know, can easily connect with any front or rear seatbelt. It comes with a handy buckle that can be fixed to your Bichon Frise’s leash. © 2005 -2011. www.your-bichon-frise.com The Insider’s Guide To The Bichon Frise If not this, perhaps your Bichon Frise would be more comfortable with a back seat mesh that could also be useful as a car barrier which will prevent your excited Bichon Frise from leaping into the front seat.

The Origin of the Tibetan Mastiff and Species Identification of Canis Based on Mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase Subunit I (COI) Gene and COI Barcoding
Animal (2011), 5:12, pp 1868–1873 & The Animal Consortium 2011 animal doi:10.1017/S1751731111001042 The origin of the Tibetan Mastiff and species identification of Canis based on mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene and COI barcoding - - Y. Li 1, X. Zhao2,Z.Pan1, Z. Xie1, H. Liu1,Y.Xu1 and Q. Li1 1College of Animal Science and Technology, Nanjing Agricultural University, Nanjing 210095, China; 2College of Animal Science and Technology, State Key Laboratory for Agrobiotechnology, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100094, China (Received 28 December 2010; Accepted 24 April 2011; First published online 11 July 2011) DNA barcoding is an effective technique to identify species and analyze phylogenesis and evolution. However, research on and application of DNA barcoding in Canis have not been carried out. In this study, we analyzed two species of Canis, Canis lupus (n 5 115) and Canis latrans (n 5 4), using the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene (1545 bp) and COI barcoding (648 bp DNA sequence of the COI gene). The results showed that the COI gene, as the moderate variant sequence, applied to the analysis of the phylogenesis of Canis members, and COI barcoding applied to species identification of Canis members. Phylogenetic trees and networks showed that domestic dogs had four maternal origins (A to D) and that the Tibetan Mastiff originated from Clade A; this result supports the theory of an East Asian origin of domestic dogs. Clustering analysis and networking revealed the presence of a closer relative between the Tibetan Mastiff and the Old English sheepdog, Newfoundland, Rottweiler and Saint Bernard, which confirms that many well-known large breed dogs in the world, such as the Old English sheepdog, may have the same blood lineage as that of the Tibetan Mastiff.

The Bichon Frise
THE BICHON FRISE UNIQUE ORIGIN: The breed derives its name from the French word Bichon which means, “small, long-haired dog.” The Bichon Frise is a descendant of the Water Spaniel. They were popular with Spanish sailors in the olden days and used on their boats. The Sailors would also use them as barter, and that’s how they reached different continents. The breed quickly became a great favorite of the nobility. King Henry III was so fond of his Bichons that he carried them in a little basket that hung from his neck. However, the little dog fell from favor with the royalty in the 1800’s and was often owned by organ grinders and circus performers. After World War I, French breeders became interested in the Bichon and worked to preserve the breed. PERSONALITY: The Bichon Frise is a cheerful dog and loves attention. They are naturally gentle, playful, and happy. They love you unconditionally, and the love you give them comes back a hundred fold. Bichons are a friendly breed with a charming personality. The breed is good with children as well as other dogs and pets. However, as with any dog, you must teach young children how to properly play with them to avoid unintentional injuries. They are moderately active and have a penchant for clowning around in a nondestructive way which makes them ideal for an apartment lifestyle and indoor living. APPEARANCE: Bichons usually weigh between 10 to 18 pounds and stand approximately 9 to 12 inches tall. This cotton-ball like dog has a small, compact frame and is surprisingly sturdy.

Present 4 My middle daughter, who was three at the time, had fallen in love with every small dog she ever saw - so we decided to get a smaller sized dog. Although we had never owned a small dog before the moment we *BFK’s Junior 4 made this decision my husband, Mark, and I knew: it had to be a Bichon! (We had known quite a few people Volunteer who had Bichons, and we knew they were great dogs!!) *10 Things Your Dog 5 When we were looking initially for a Bichon we thought that our only option was to purchase a puppy. As a Wants To Know young girl growing up, my father would always bring home “rescue” dogs and *The Unexpected cats for us - and most of our pets were acquired that way.
