 Australian Shepherd
The Australian shepherd is a breed of herding dog that was developed on ranches in the Western United States. Despite its name, the breed, commonly known as an Aussie, did not originate in Australia They acquired their name because some of the Australian sheepdogs arrived in the United States with boatloads of Australian sheep. The breed rose gradually in popularity with the boom of western riding after World War I. They became known to the general public through rodeos, horse shows, and through Disney movies made for television.For many years, Aussies have been valued by stockmen for their inherent versatility and trainability. While they continue to work as stockdogs and compete in herding trials, the breed has earned recognition in other roles due to their trainability and eagerness to please, and are highly regarded for their skills in obedience. Like all working breeds, the Aussie has considerable energy and drive, and usually needs a job to do. It often excels at dog sports such as dog agility, flyball, and frisbee. They are also highly successful search and rescue dogs, disaster dogs, detection dogs, guide, service, and therapy dogs.The Australian shepherd is a medium sized breed of solid build. The ASCA standard calls for the Australian shepherd to stand between 18-23 inches at the withers, females being 18-21 inches and males measuring 20-23 inches, however, quality is not to be sacrificed in favor of size. |
Coton de Tulear
The Coton de Tuléar is a small breed of dog. It is named for the city of Tuléar in Madagascar and its cotton textured coat.Multiple registries with differing standards describe the Coton de Tuléar, but in general, it has very soft hair, comparable to a cotton ball, a prominent black nose, large expressive eyes (usually covered by bangs) and somewhat short puffy legs.Coton de Tuléar has a medium- to long-hair, fluffy, cotton-like coat that is hair rather than fur. It is a non-shedding breed with low dander. There is no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog however; like the poodle or his cousin, the Havanese[citation needed]. This breed has no "doggie smell", though it will still smell like a wet dog after a bath. The Coton de Tulear comes in different colors, white, white with light brown spots, black and white , and black (not an acceptable color). The beauty of the Coton is that as it gets older the color spots on it fade away, so eventually it will be pure white.This breed has little to no shedding. Like other dogs, hair will come out if you brush them. Mats can usually be removed with gentle use of a slicker brush, but this will take time. You need to cut out mats if they get them because the groomer might shave them |
