Dog Breeds - Labrador Retriever

Today I am going to write about the most popular dog breed.

As you can see from the previews post, the most popular breed is the Labrador retriever. How cute is that dog ?

These dogs have very good detection and working skills, therefore they are often used by police or other parties. They are very polite, friendly, energetic, and intelligent dogs. This is why this breed is so popular. The Labrador Retriever is considered large, muscular, and athletic. He or she can function as a retrieving gun dog. They have floppy ears, a medium length muzzle, and long legs. The basic colors that they can have are chocolate, black, and yellow. But you can also find a variety of hues between these colors.

Their coat is very short and it is water-repellent, excellent for swimming or rain. It also means that the dog doesn’t get cold when swimming in winter.

Labrador Retrievers don’t tend to be aggressive, territorial, or pining, destructive, or insecure. Therefore they are most likely when you want to introduce them new persons. Having a Lab is good for every family member, even the children. They will not harm them intentionally, but you should consider that they are big and heavy. They could hit them unwillingly, accidentally. Because of their intelligent, they can think twice about things they do when they are trained well.

Unfortunately, this breed is not qualified to be a guard dog. The reason is very simple. They are just too friendly, and unaggressive.

Here is video I picked for you for more information:

Dog Breeds: American Bulldog

The American Bulldog is a very athletic dog. They are very good bodyguards, they put a lot of effort to protect its owner. Their life span is between 10 and 15 years. As you can see from the picture, these dogs are very strong and they have a muscular body. They are loyal and confident to the owner and can be used as a guard dog, all-purpose working partner, and family companion. The male American Bulldog can become 22-27 inches tall and weigh 755-125 pounds. The female dog can become 20-25 inches tall and weigh 60-100 pounds. Its coat is short and stiff. American Bulldogs can litter 6 to 16 puppies.

The American Bulldog's best living area is the outdoor. So it is profitable for them to live in a home with a big backyard that is securely fenced because these dogs are very strong. But you should consider that the these dogs have a short coat, therefore they will not stay outside very long on very hot or very cold days. Thus, you should provide him or her a nice indoor living area.

The American Bulldog is known as a loving and family friendly dog. It is determined to protect its owner from predators and other dangers towards the owner. It is very powerful, confident, and keen dog that has a big head which allows him to hunt everything from small to big creatures.

These dogs are also a good working dog. That means that they are willing to learn new and different things and do different tasks. They are stolid dogs who want to be the boss in any situation. You got to be consistent, firm, and always stay on what you say to your American Bulldog.

Furthermore, they need contact to friendly strangers because American Bulldogs have a natural protective instinct to people they don't know. With contact to friendly strangers they learn the difference between good people and bad people. They need to be socialized carefully because otherwise they will bite others.

Here is a nice video of an American Bulldog:

Dog Breeds and Description

Hi dear Dog friends,

I decided to write about dog breeds. I think it is really important to know, when you go to the doggy park with your dog and you see all the different kinds of dog, some information about dog breeds e.g. the name of the breed, description, temperament etc...
It is also very useful to know the dogs when you are planning to buy or adopt one.

I will add one breed each day or 2 days here in the blog. I will also create an extra category, so you can navigate easier through the site.

And if you like to know about a specific breed that I didn't mention yet, leave me a message so I can provide you with information about the breed of your choise.

Thanks,

Shahin
