You can find the answers to questions like “Can you really say … in German?” And so, you will produce more stylistically sophisticated translations.

Where do the “Examples from the Internet” come from?

The “Examples from the Internet” do, in fact, come from the Internet. We are able to identify trustworthy translations with the aid of automated processes. The main sources we used are professionally translated company, and academic, websites. In addition, we have included websites of international organizations such as the European Union. Because of the overwhelming data volume, it has not been possible to carry out a manual editorial check on all of these documents. So, we logically cannot guarantee the quality of each and every translation. This is why they are marked “not verified by PONS editors”.

What are our future plans?

We are working on continually optimizing the quality of our usage examples by improving their relevance as well as the translations. In addition, we have begun to apply this technology to further languages in order to build up usage-example databases for other language pairs. We also aim to integrate these usage examples into our mobile applications (mobile website, apps) as quickly as possible.

"A true hunting breed" - Part 1

The hunting and working instinct of the Catahoula are really one and the same. It can be difficult to explain how a breed can be both a hunting dog and a cattle dog, but I will do my best to clarify this. A Catahoula is not a вЂњherdingвЂќ breed. When they are working cattle, they are using their prey drive. With a true herding breed, such as the Collie, they вЂњstalkвЂќ, (still a part of the prey drive) but their natural predatory aggression has been inhibited through selective breeding so they no longer have the desire to pounce, grab and kill that all canine descendants once had. Many hunting breeds still have a high predatory aggression. Although in a sense this is not вЂњaggressionвЂќ at all, in compared with Social/Dominance Aggression or Fear Aggression. Predatory aggression is a natural survival-related behavior. It is not vicious, malicious or vindictive nor is it preceded by a mood change or threatening gestures, as when we think of other types of aggression. Therefore it is more appropriately referred to as predatory drive or prey drive. Catahoulas have an intense hunting instinct. IвЂ™ll explain further how this prey drive associates with the Catahoulas working drive:

The natural hunting behavior of a wolf is as follows:

Dissect and Eat

"A true hunting breed" - Part 2

The вЂњworkingвЂќ nature of most breeds uses these traits to various degrees to achieve the required result in that breed.

Herding breeds - вЂњStalkвЂќ

Pointing breeds have a more - inhibited вЂњStalkвЂќ

Retrieving breeds have a - вЂњchaseвЂќ + inhibited вЂњGrab/BiteвЂќ

Some breeds will go through the entire sequence of wolf type hunting, but stop short of actually dissecting and eating the animal. Many Catahoulas will go through all phases, including the eating of the meal they have just caught. This is why they do not make a good retriever, their predatory drive is too high. They do not have a soft mouth and rather then вЂњretrievingвЂќ the bird will, in most cases proceed to keep it away from their owner and eat it. They do not make a good sheepherding dog, because they do not stop at the вЂњstalkвЂќ phase as most herding breeds are required to. They are too tough for sheep and if given the chance would continue on with hunting the creature instead of herding it. Cattle and hogs are much tougher adversaries for the Catahoula and although the in proper terminology, they are working/baying these animals, (see Working Style) they are in effect вЂњhuntingвЂќ them, putting into use their high prey drive. Catahoulas and other Cur breeds are well-known for their ability to locate cattle in brush or wooded areas, tracking or trailing them using scent, in other words. hunting.

"A true hunting breed" - Part 3

When a rancher is looking for that perfect cow or stock dog in a Catahoula, they need to evaluate the hunting ability of the dog. Catahoulas bay cattle in much the same way that they hunt and bay hogs, so to say that a Catahoula is вЂњherding cattleвЂќ is incorrect.

In short, the prey-drive of a Catahoula as a hunting dog far exceeds that of a herding breed, so to refer to the Catahoula (or any Cur breed for that matter) as a herding dog is incorrect and a misrepresentation of the breed. The correct terminology would be to call them a вЂњcattle working dogвЂќ, a вЂњbay dogвЂќ, or a вЂњstock dogвЂќ.

It is possible to tone this prey drive down and keep control over it. There are Catahoulas who have succeeded in getting their sheep herding titles or Catahoulas that will retrieve, but this takes quite a bit of control over your dog and the suppression of the natural instincts they were born with. If your Catahoula lives in areas where there are many smaller type dogs or cats and must co-exist peaceful with them, then it is more advisable that your dog not be allowed to hunt to itвЂ™s full potential as this could naturally then be directed towards animals that your dog should NOT hunt. It is also a good idea to social with your Catahoula with smaller type dogs when they are young.

"Bobtail Cur Breeds"

Most of the Cur breeds have and are allowed a natural bobtail within their various standards. The following is a list of many of the breeds.

Black Mouth Cur - The tail can be quite lengthy. Many are born with a short tail or have a docked tail. The tail is set on low and may be any length.

Canadian Cur - The tail is set low and either naturally bobbed or of any length.

Kemmer Stock Mountain Cur - Preferred natural bob or bobbed but full length with high carriage is permitted History tells us that there are have been short tail dogs in Georgia since Oglethorp brought his jailed criminals to settle there. When settlers moved down the Appalachian Mts. they found these natural short tail dogs. They have been around ever since. Although there are some breeds of cur dogs that have long tails. This in no way makes a dog better or worse. Our breed standard says that tail length should be natural bob or bobbed but full length not objectionable. Breed for ability first and always.

Leopard Cur - The tail is set on low and may be any length.

Mountain View Cur - Natural bob or docked preferred. Docking should leave enough tail to have a handle when grown.

Mountain Cur - The tail is set low and either naturally bobbed or of medium length.

Treeing Cur - Tails -Any length

"Bobtail Facts - Part 1"

The bobtail trait is inherited as a dominant gene. Only one bobtail parent is required in order for bobtail pups to be whelped. On average, when breeding 1 bobtail parent and 1 longtail parent, 50% of the pups in the litter will have a bobtail. The bobtail gene can not be inherited as вЂњhomozygousвЂќ. Meaning that a bobtail dog can not carry two bobtail genes (one inherited from each parent). The bobtail gene is inherited as вЂњheterozygousвЂќ. Meaning that a bobtail dog has 1 bobtail gene and 1 longtail gene. Therefore when breeding two bobtail dogs together, there will still be both longtail and bobtail pups in the resulting litter. On average there should be 50% bobtail pups with this breeding. The bobtail gene in Catahoulas (as with most other Cur breeds) has a вЂњvariable expressionвЂќ, meaning that the length of the bobtail can range from a very short stub to a Вѕ length tail, although on the average the bobtail is from 1 вЂ“ 3вЂќ in length. A longtail dog from a bobtail parent will not produce any bobtail pups when bred to another longtail dog. If a pup does not inherit a bobtail gene from a parent then the trait is forever lost in that pup. it can not be passed on as a вЂњrecessiveвЂќ trait.

"Bobtail Facts - Part 2

Out of eight associations, only the NALC faults the natural bobtail. The Animal Research Foundation was the first to register the Catahoula in 1951. The bobtail dogs have always been included in their standard. Note: Mr. Vernon Traxler was the first to registered a bobtail Catahoula with the ARF. Mr. Traxler - вЂњTraxler CatahoulasвЂќ had been breeding bobtail Catahoulas since 1944. His first bobtail Catahoula was acquired in a trade with the Indians at Three Rivers, south of Jonesville, LA - a yellow, glass eyed female. When the NALC started up in 1975, the bobtail trait was not faulted. This fault did not come into effect until 1985. In 1995 the standard was revised to make the bobtail a serious fault. Most Cur breeds have the natural bobtail trait. This trait is accepted by the various Cur breed clubs and organizations.

"Registries and Standards" - Part 1

The ARF - (American Research Foundation - first registering body of the Catahoula) recognizes both the longtail and the bobtail Catahoula, stating in their standard that вЂњA natural bobtail is not uncommon, and is recognized as part of this unique breed."

The ACA - (American Catahoula Assoc.) recognizes the natural bobtail Catahoula, stating in their standard that - вЂњThe tail should have a medium to high set. Natural bob-tails occur occasionally and this trait shall not be penalized."

The LCCA - (Lousiana Catahoula Cur Assoc.) est. 1976, also recognizes the bobtail dogs. Their standard reads - вЂњNatural bob-tails occur on occasion in the breed and should not be penalizedвЂќ and вЂњTAIL: Natural length, if that is full length or any other length that is natural.вЂќ

The CCBA - (Catahoula Cur Breeders Assoc.) recognizes a natural bobtail.

"Registries and Standards" - Part 2

NSDR - (National Stock Dog Registry) Bobtail, docked tail, or long tail accepted.

"Registries and Standards" - Part 3

NALC - When the NALC - (National Association of the Louisiana Catahoula) was established in 1977, the specifics of the standard did not fault a natural bobtail. However, in 1984 a vote was held on this matter. Any Catahoula breeders certified with them at this time were eligible to vote. It was decided that the bobtail would now be considered a fault. In 1995 the NALC standard was revised to state that the bobtail was a вЂњserious faultвЂќ; there was no vote on this change. Being that the NALC has grown to become the largest and most widely spread Catahoula registry, the bobtail Catahoulas have greatly declined in numbers. The preservation of the bobtail Catahoula is very important as their history traces back to the beginning of the Catahoula breed! To lose this would be like losing a part of the breed itself.

"Hunting style"

вЂњHot-nosedвЂќ Hunter - Catahoulas will track scents that have recently been laid, approximately within the last hour or so, sometimes as long as 2 hours before. If they are working an older track they will however leave it if they find a scent more recent and continue to track that, or if they air scent a critter that is near-by. In other words, they will track the hottest scent they can find to the closest critter!! (This is very different to many hounds, who are вЂњcold-nosedвЂќ hunters, tracking scents that may be many, many hours old.)

вЂњClosedвЂќ On Trail - Or silent. They do not have a continuous bark while tracking, but may give off an excited bark or two upon hitting a track and then are silent until the prey is bayed-up or treed, when they will start to bark. (Some hunters do prefer a dog that is open on track, so that they can follow the sound and know which direction the dog has headed)

вЂњShort RangedвЂќ - Catahoulas will stay within a reasonably close proximity to their owners while they are hunting. My dogs are rarely gone for more then 10 minutes without checking back in with me. one of the traits that I love about them.

вЂњGround Scenting or Air ScentingвЂќ - a Catahoula is quite adept at either following scents on the ground and following scents on air currents.

вЂњLarge or Small GameвЂќ - They will hunt any type of game - squirrel, coon, bobcat, bear, hog, cougar, deer. etc. With some training they can be вЂњtrash brokeвЂќ to hunt mainly what the hunter wants to and not the nearest game in sight!

вЂњHog DogвЂќ - they make an excellent hog baying dog in the woods. Baying a hog to a stand still and holding them there until their owner arrives. A dog that вЂњbays looseвЂќ or gives the hog room is less likely to be injured then a dog that вЂњbays tightвЂќ. The вЂњtight bayingвЂќ is looked for more in the bay pen at shows.

вЂњTree DogвЂќ - Catahoulas are excellent treeing dogs. After treeing a squirrel or coon, they will вЂњbay treedвЂќ until their owner arrives.

Bobtail in Not?

Wir haben einen Bobtail auf einem Stellplatz im Urlaub getroffen.

Der Besitzer ist mit ihrem Hund zu uns gekommen.

Der Hund ist sooooooo ungepflegt, sooooo dreckig. der Augenschlaf hängt da, genau so groß wie sein Auge! Der Besitzer hat sich nur über seinen Hund beschwert, daß der Hund nichts machenläßt, und so einen Sturkopf hat. Und gleich hat er mich noch gefragt, aus welchem Zwinger kommen meine Hunde.

Welcher Zwinger. Es ist doch egal, auch wenn die Hundeeltern seines Hundes Weltschampions sind, wenn er sich gar nicht um den Hund kümmert.

Was für eine Ausssage, daß man nicht mal den Augenschlaf wegmachen kann, ist es überhaupt sein Hund?

Wir wollten überhaupt nicht mit ihm reden und haben ihn stehenlassen!

Kommentare:

Grrrrr. armer Wuff!

Das ist ja schon fast Tierquälerei!

Ich weiß nicht, ob meine Chefin den so stehenlassen hätte, die legt dann los! :D

Verfilztes Fell zum Beispiel unter den Pfoten, ist ganz böse, wir können doch Rückenschmerzen und so davon bekommen!

Ok. ich gebe zu, ich bin wirklich eine Wellness-Zicke, aber da muß ich durch!

Ich glaube ich weiß sogar wir die heißen!

Das waren Herr und Frau Schlampig! :D

Hallo Ihr lieben,

ihr hättet denen am besten direkt unsere adresse gegeben, ein wink mit dem Zaunpfahl bewirkt machmal wunder *grins*

wieso bin ich nicht darauf gekommen:-)) Frauchen und Herrchen haben sich nur über den Hund beschwert.

The Old English Sheepdog can reach between 60-100 pounds as an adult and 23-26 inches at the shoulders.

In 1995, the Old English Sheepdog ranked 55th in registration statistics and 56th in litter registration statistics.

The Old English Sheepdog's coat is one of his most distinctive features. The coat is profuse, but not excessive, and may take three to four hours a week to groom.

The Old English Sheepdog is known to shed, so if you have an aversion to dog hair, you may want to consider another breed.

Size, Proportion, Substance

Size-- Height (measured from top of withers to the ground), Dogs: 22 inches (55.8 cm) and upward.

Bitches: 21 inches (53.3 cm) and upward.

Proportion-- Length (measured from point of shoulder to point of ischium (tuberosity) practically the same as the height. Absolutely free from legginess or weaselness.

Substance-- Well muscled with plenty of bone.

Eyes-- Brown, blue or one of each. If brown, very dark is preferred. If blue, a pearl, china or wall-eye is considered typical. An amber or yellow eye is most objectionable.

Ears-- Medium sized and carried flat to the side of the head.

Skull-- Capacious and rather squarely formed giving plenty of room for brain power. The parts over the eyes (supra-orbital ridges) are well arched. The whole well covered with hair.

Stop-- Well defined.

Jaw-- Fairly long, strong, square and truncated. Attention is particularly called to the above properties as a long, narrow head or snipy muzzle is a deformity.

Nose-- Always black, large and capacious.

Teeth-- Strong, large and evenly placed. The bite is level or tight scissors.

Topline-- Stands lower at the withers than at the loin with no indication of softness or weakness. Attention is particularly called to this topline as it is a distinguishing characteristic of the breed.

Body-- Rather short and very compact, broader at the rump than at the shoulders, ribs well sprung and brisket deep and capacious. Neither slab-sided nor barrel-chested. The loin is very stout and gently arched.

Tail-- Docked close to the body, when not naturally bob tailed.

Round and muscular with well let down hocks. When standing, the metatarses are perpendicular to the ground when viewed from any angle.

Small and round, toes well arched, pads thick and hard, feet pointing straight ahead.

Profuse, but not so excessive as to give the impression of the dog being overly fat, and of a good hard texture; not straight, but shaggy and free from curl. Quality and texture of coat to be considered above mere profuseness. Softness or flatness of coat to be considered a fault. The undercoat is a waterproof pile when not removed by grooming or season. Ears coated moderately. The whole skull well covered with hair. The neck well coated with hair. The forelegs well coated all around. The hams densely coated with a thick, long jacket in excess of any other part. Neither the natural outline nor the natural texture of the coat may be changed by any artificial means except that the feet and rear may be trimmed for cleanliness.

Any shade of gray, grizzle, blue or blue merle with or without white markings or in reverse. Any shade of brown or fawn to be considered distinctly objectionable and not to be encouraged.

When trotting, movement is free and powerful, seemingly effortless, with good reach and drive, and covering maximum ground with minimum steps. Very elastic at a gallop. May amble or pace at slower speeds.

An adaptable, intelligent dog of even disposition, with no sign of aggression, shyness or nervousness.

Shumshu – en slektning av gaupa?

Posted on March 23, 2012

På mange måter minner katten om ei gaupe, lange bakbein, hår opp fra ørene og en kort hale. Forleden kveld var det dyreprogram om nettopp gauper, og Shumshu fulgte (delvis) nysjerrig med.

The Lynx. Shumshu looks somewhat like a Lynx, long backlegs, hair sticking out of his ears and a short tail. One evening there was a TV-program about the Lynx, and Shumshu watched (now and then)…

Shumshu er en veldig trygg og avslappet liten katt. Nå er den blitt veldig glad i å ligge på fanget, så mye at jeg må begrense det! Selv nå, når jeg sitter og skriver på macen, ligger han på fanget. Han har fått lov. I går tok Martin dette bildet av det lille vesenet i full strekk på ryggen på fanget mitt.

Very relaxed. Shumshu feels very secure and relaxed already. Martin took this image of him yesterday, when he was lying on his back on my lap, completely stretched.

Shumshu i skjul

Den kurileiske bobtailen min er stadig på oppdagelsesturer rundt i leiligheten. Den har doen sin i doen min . Der er det varmekabler på gulvet, og det har den oppdaget. Så nå hender det den tar en pause der, og i tillegg til å ligge på det varme gulvet kryper den også under teppet foran doen.

Hiding. Shumshu is exploring all the possibilities in my apartment. Now he has discovered that the tiles in my bathroom are warm. To make it extra warm he creeps under the soft mat there.

Nå har det blitt fart i katten! Den kommer springende i full fart over gulvene og ender ofte ferden på toppen av en hylle foran viduet i soverommet mitt. Derfra har den fin utsikt over det som skjer i Pilestredet. Der står det også en lampe, og i dag fikk jeg tatt et bilde av han akkurat der.

Behind the lamp. The cat has become fast. He runs across the floors in hign speed, and often ends up on his viewpoint in my bedroom. From there he can watch everything happening in busy Pilestredet. He can also hide behind the lamp there.

Shumshu – katten

Min lille Kurilian Bobtail, Shumshu, er forlengst blitt husvarm. Han spiser og drikker og går på kattedoen, slik en veloppdragen katt skal. Og han er utrolig kosete. Det virker nesten som han maler hele tiden, i alle fall når vi tar på han. Jeg har lest at disse kattene ikke er så glade i å ligge på fanget, men at de svært gjerne ligger ved siden av deg i sofaen (se bildet). Men i kveld lå ha i halvannen time på fanget mitt mens vi så en film.

Han sover mye, ofte i en kosestilling der han krøller seg sammen og blir veldig liten. Torsdag tok jeg han med en tur på jobben fort å hilse på, vi kjørte åpen MG, og han ga ikke fra seg en lyd underveis…

Dette ser veldig bra ut!

Shumshu. My little cat is a very cosy cat. He really likes curling up beside us in the sofa, this evening he slept on my lap through the movie we were watching. He is extremely well behaved, eats, drinks and goes to his toilet when nature is calling. And he sleeps a lot. He seems to enjoy life, he is purring every time you touch him or just talk to him.
