  • Australian Silky Terrier - a True Blue Aussie
    Petcare Hints Australian Silky Terrier - a true blue Aussie This versatile little dog is another Australian made product which has won acclaim, not only in its own country, but throughout the world. It is a one family dog, very loyal with a great sense of humour, affectionate and gentle. As a house dog he is easily trained and clean. The smallest of the Australian breeds, he is none the less very courageous and an excellent watch dog. It is believed that this breed developed along the same lines as the Australian Terrier, being descended from Broken Coated Terriers, and early records show that a Broken Coated Terrier bitch of a blue sheen colour was taken from Tasmania to England in the 1820¹s and bred to a Dandie Dinmont Terrier. A Mr Macarthur Little purchased some puppies from these litters and was so impressed that he proceeded to establish a similar type of terrier with a soft coat. Later he migrated to Australia and brought some of his dogs with him. He settled near Sydney and continued to experiment in breeding these little dogs. Several were sold to Charles Hincliffe, who moved to the goldfields near Ballarat in Victoria and the little silky coated dogs soon became well known around the district. By 1908 the breed had become well established. It came in two sizes - over 6 pounds and under 12 pounds. A trophy was offered at the Sydney Royal Show for an owner who won Best of Breed three years in succession and the award was a small gold brick on a chain, known as "The Prince of Wales Trophy".

  • THE LIVES of DOMESTIC DOGS (CANIS AFRICANIS) in BOTSWANA Alice Hovorka1 and Lauren Van Patte2
    Pula: Botswana Journal of African Studies Vol. 31(1), 2017 THE LIVES OF DOMESTIC DOGS (CANIS AFRICANIS) IN BOTSWANA Alice Hovorka1 and Lauren Van Patte2 Abstract The objective of this study is to document the roles, value, circumstances, and welfare management of domestic dogs (Canis Africanis) in Greater Maun, Botswana. Findings based on interviews with sixty participants, as well as key informant interviews and participant observation, reveal high incidence of dog ownership with dogs primarily used as guardians and companions at rural villages, cattle posts and urban homesteads. Dogs are particularly valued for their obedience to and security offered owners. Participants care for their dogs by providing them with food, allowing them free access to areas outside of homesteads, and accessing medical attention when necessary. Participants were pleased with veterinary care, sterilization and vaccination services provided by the local animal welfare organization and urge government to become more involved in dog- related services, laws and education for community members. Analysis of these findings reveals emerging trends related to changing dog roles, urbanization, regulation, and breeding are re- orienting dog roles and circumstances, as well as welfare management needs. Ultimately, this study establishes baseline data regarding human-dog relations and is positioned to inform community development and animal welfare efforts in Botswana. Key words: Dogs, roles, welfare, human-dog relations INTRODUCTION Free-roaming domestic dogs are ubiquitous in rural, peri-urban and urban areas throughout Southern Africa. Originally understood as the ‘mongrel progeny of settler dogs’ (Swart 2003:194), recent arguments posit that they are direct descendants of the Arabian wolf, domesticated 7000 years ago in Northern Africa and the Middle East (Gaubert et al.
