I like these dogs very much! But what is actually the exact difference between the Appenzeller and the Entlebucher? They really look confusingly similar!
Yes, they are already very similar, but there are differences: So, the appenzell cattle dog is slightly larger than the entlebucher cattle dog. Entlebuchers have shorter legs, making them appear more compact and stocky. Appenzellers have a curled tail, while that of the entlebucher is straight.
So, a friend of mine had one of those in the family, or rather he and his girlfriend had the dog. there everything was ok, then they had a baby and the Akita was very jealous. It was indeed not quite harmless, but then they visited a dog school and got it under control.... Now the boy is three years old and the Akita gets along very well with him....
Well, of course, the other way around is always better: that is, when first the baby comes into the house and then the puppy or dog. But you can also influence this positively by getting the dog used to the smell before the baby comes home, e.g. by giving the dog a worn baby romper to sniff. Small things, but they can help...
Another great video with great music! I once heard that Appenzellers unfortunately do not get very old. Is that true? Are they particularly susceptible to specific breed diseases?
Well, normally they already become about 12 years old on average. Unfortunately, there is still only a very small breeding base with not too many breeding animals, so a particularly responsible breeding is necessary to minimize diseases typical for the breed. In the years from 1963 to 2012, only 10% of the puppies registered in the stud book were allowed for breeding. This is to guarantee that the good hereditary traits of the dog are preserved. Genetic diseases such as elbow dysplasia, hip joint dyplasia or osteochondrosis often occur. Sometimes the dogs also develop cataracts and heart disease can also occur. When they are older, they suffer more often from skin problems or even skin tumors.
Well, they often bark quite persistently. But with a good education you should be able to get them out of the habit. If you give them enough exercise, you can certainly keep them quite well in the city.
Thx... Are you sure there are Entlebucher pictures in there? Can you name timecodes where you think Entlebucher images appear? I have selected the images very carefully, but of course it is always possible that they are tagged incorrectly by the photographer himself. And the two breeds are also very similar...

There is also a cheese in Switzerland called "Appenzeller". 😅Very tasty! I can only recommend!
Yes, I know the cheese, very tasty!

@@Hundefande Thx!
Can you keep the dogs well in the city even in a small apartment?
Well, they often bark quite persistently. But with a good education you should be able to get them out of the habit. If you give them enough exercise, you can certainly keep them quite well in the city.
@@Hundefande Ah ok, good to know...
@@Hundefande How do you get them out of the habit of barking?
Good video but to many Entlebucher mountain dog pictures in it. :)
