 Brussels Griffon Dog

history

Brussels griffons appeared in Belgium, where they were highly appreciated for their ability to catch mice. They were especially popular among the owners of stables, as these dogs on some inexplicable, internal level are well in harmony with horses. They were kept both in private stables at homeownership, and in the stables of the city equestrian taxi (we called them cabbies).

The creation of the dog Brussels griffon involved breeds affenpinscher, a toy English spaniel, and to create a smooth-haired type of griffon also used Pug. Affenpinscher has a fundamental influence on the size and wavy texture of wool, and the influence of toy spaniels is especially noticeable in large and very expressive eyes, rounded head shape, and a peculiar lower jaw.

By the end of the 19th century, the Brussels griffon became popular not only as a dog for hunting parasites in the stables but also as a pet with a very unusual appearance. Moreover, despite its working past, the dog was willingly started by people from the noble class.

Maria Henrietta, the Belgian queen, and part-time big dog lover fell in love with the little griffin and began to breed them on their own, as well as promote these dogs in other European countries. This happened after Belgian breeders created the first written standard of the breed in 1883, after which the Belgian griffin began to take part in exhibitions. It was after one of the dogs shows That Maria Henrietta wanted a dog like that.

In Brussels in 1889 was created "Club du Griffon Brussels", Norton reflected only the smooth-haired type of this breed, named Griffon Branson. Dogs of both types with rough and smooth hair got to England around 1890. A few years later, several individuals were transported to the United States, where they also found a lot of fans.

In the U.S. there are two types of Brussels griffons: a griffin with coarse wool and a griffin with smooth hair called Branson. In Belgium, they develop three types: fine Branson (with smooth hair, as in The U.S.), Brussels griffin with coarse red hair, and Belgian griffin with coarse hair, any color except red.

During the First and Second World Wars, the number of these dogs worldwide was greatly reduced, and if it were not for the American breeders, the very existence of the breed would be in question. After all, in Europe, they are almost gone, and in England the small population that existed there was also under attack.

description

Brussels griffon is a small dog with a strong physique, limbs are short. The head is rounded, the ears are standing, and the muzzle is a little flattened, with a characteristic mustache and beard, which is why many say that the griffon looks like "wiki" from Star Wars. Ears are stand-up. The tail is short; the coat can be smooth or stiff.

 

personality

At once we can say that this is a very cute and good-natured dog, which, at the same time, has a somewhat cheeky and even brazen temper. But it is rather funny and not with anger, and rarely brings trouble. Especially, if the owner properly socializes his dog, and loves her, then these qualities allow her to become the soul of any company, and to join any environment. Although it is fair to say that not all griffons are similar to each other, some of them are more shy, others, on the contrary, brazen and bold.

Brussels griffin always needs close contact with his owner and his family, he loves his loved ones and is ready to spend all his free time with them. Often these dogs literally stick to their owners and need your attention. If they don't get attention, their behavior may even be too defiant and a little strange. Also, the Brussels griffin does not like to stay at home alone for a long time, because such a dog will not suit everyone.

These are quite active animals that love different games, and love walks, especially if there is somewhere to have fun with other dogs. But if your pet goes with you for a morning jog, he will also be immensely happy, and it is unknown what he will like more - a run with the owner or playing with other dogs. Perhaps the truth is that in the life of a pet there was both the first and the second.

They love children, probably primarily because they see them as friends and partners for games and entertainment. But a full-fledged nanny griffon cannot be called, as often he behaves like a child. In addition, it has a limit on patience, and the child must be trained to communicate with the animal.

Conflicts with other dogs are rare. But small animals can try to hunt, especially in the park. Strangers can be perceived differently, depending, first, on the attitude of the owner to the person, and secondly - on the type of character of the dog and its upbringing. However, in general, aggression is not shown but can be both restrained and friendly open.

These dogs have an overbearing trait, because of which they can stick their beard everywhere and try to lead, but it is, again, rather funny, because in any case, in the first place next to you are affectionate and kind friends. By the way, the Brussels griffin can often single out one person in the family as the most beloved and authoritative for himself.

 

teaching

The Brussels griffin is good at the training process and even needs it because it gets the necessary food for the mind. The learning process must be conducted consistently, with kindness and patience, as well as the necessary sense of humor. Rough treatment and physical punishment can only make the character stubborner and introverted because you need to hold yourself in your hands.

Training should be interesting, and active, and it is better than the activity gradually increasing until the end of the class, but here do not go overboard - look at the reaction of the dog. The main thing is that it does not overwork and does not lose interest - look for a middle ground. You don't have to force her too much. Be sure to use praise and encouragement in the form of goodies.

Griffons bark from every sound, which makes them good watchdogs, but sometimes they can make noise. It is recommended that the team be trained to be silent.

 

care

Regardless of the type of wool, the griffin can be brushed once a week. Eyes from attachments after sleep should be cleaned daily or if necessary, ears clean three times a week, claws cut three times a month. You need to bathe the dog once a week at least.

Some griffons can be voracious, so it is best to control the amount of food consumed.

 

Common diseases

The breed of Brussels griffin, as well as All dogs, has a tendency to some diseases, although in general, these animals have good health and good immunity:

  • hip dysplasia;
  • dislocated hamstring;
  • eye problems - the eyes of the Brussels griffin are prone to scratches and irritation;
  • skin allergies - they are often prone to allergies. If you see an itch or excessive licking of your paws, contact your veterinarian.

Brussels Griffon Dog history Brussels griffons appeared in Belgium, where they were highly appreciated for their ability to catch mice. They were especially popular among the owners of stables, as these dogs on some inexplicable, internal level are well in harmony with horses. They were kept both in private stables at homeownership, and in the stables of the city equestrian taxi (we called them cabbies).  The creation of the dog Brussels griffon involved breeds affenpinscher, a toy English spaniel, and to create a smooth-haired type of griffon also used Pug. Affenpinscher has a fundamental influence on the size and wavy texture of wool, and the influence of toy spaniels is especially noticeable in large and very expressive eyes, rounded head shape, and a peculiar lower jaw.  By the end of the 19th century, the Brussels griffon became popular not only as a dog for hunting parasites in the stables but also as a pet with a very unusual appearance. Moreover, despite its working past, the dog was willingly started by people from the noble class.  Maria Henrietta, the Belgian queen, and part-time big dog lover fell in love with the little griffin and began to breed them on their own, as well as promote these dogs in other European countries. This happened after Belgian breeders created the first written standard of the breed in 1883, after which the Belgian griffin began to take part in exhibitions. It was after one of the dogs shows That Maria Henrietta wanted a dog like that.  In Brussels in 1889 was created "Club du Griffon Brussels", Norton reflected only the smooth-haired type of this breed, named Griffon Branson. Dogs of both types with rough and smooth hair got to England around 1890. A few years later, several individuals were transported to the United States, where they also found a lot of fans.  In the U.S. there are two types of Brussels griffons: a griffin with coarse wool and a griffin with smooth hair called Branson. In Belgium, they develop three types: fine Branson (with smooth hair, as in The U.S.), Brussels griffin with coarse red hair, and Belgian griffin with coarse hair, any color except red.  During the First and Second World Wars, the number of these dogs worldwide was greatly reduced, and if it were not for the American breeders, the very existence of the breed would be in question. After all, in Europe, they are almost gone, and in England the small population that existed there was also under attack.

The head is rounded, the ears are standing, and the muzzle is a little flattened, with a characteristic mustache and beard, which is why many say that the griffon looks like "wiki" from Star Wars. Ears are stand-up. The tail is short; the coat can be smooth or stiff.     personality At once we can say that this is a very cute and good-natured dog, which, at the same time, has a somewhat cheeky and even brazen temper. But it is rather funny and not with anger, and rarely brings trouble. Especially, if the owner properly socializes his dog, and loves her, then these qualities allow her to become the soul of any company, and to join any environment. Although it is fair to say that not all griffons are similar to each other, some of them are more shy, others, on the contrary, brazen and bold.  Brussels griffin always needs close contact with his owner and his family, he loves his loved ones and is ready to spend all his free time with them. Often these dogs literally stick to their owners and need your attention. If they don't get attention, their behavior may even be too defiant and a little strange. Also, the Brussels griffin does not like to stay at home alone for a long time, because such a dog will not suit everyone.  These are quite active animals that love different games, and love walks, especially if there is somewhere to have fun with other dogs. But if your pet goes with you for a morning jog, he will also be immensely happy, and it is unknown what he will like more - a run with the owner or playing with other dogs. Perhaps the truth is that in the life of a pet there was both the first and the second.  They love children, probably primarily because they see them as friends and partners for games and entertainment. But a full-fledged nanny griffon cannot be called, as often he behaves like a child. In addition, it has a limit on patience, and the child must be trained to communicate with the animal.  Conflicts with other dogs are rare. But small animals can try to hunt, especially in the park. Strangers can be perceived differently, depending, first, on the attitude of the owner to the person, and secondly - on the type of character of the dog and its upbringing. However, in general, aggression is not shown but can be both restrained and friendly open.  These dogs have an overbearing trait, because of which they can stick their beard everywhere and try to lead, but it is, again, rather funny, because in any case, in the first place next to you are affectionate and kind friends. By the way, the Brussels griffin can often single out one person in the family as the most beloved and authoritative for himself.     teaching The Brussels griffin is good at the training process and even needs it because it gets the necessary food for the mind. The learning process must be conducted consistently, with kindness and patience, as well as the necessary sense of humor. Rough treatment and physical punishment can only make the character stubborner and introverted because you need to hold yourself in your hands.  Training should be interesting, and active, and it is better than the activity gradually increasing until the end of the class, but here do not go overboard - look at the reaction of the dog. The main thing is that it does not overwork and does not lose interest - look for a middle ground. You don't have to force her too much. Be sure to use praise and encouragement in the form of goodies.  Griffons bark from every sound, which makes them good watchdogs, but sometimes they can make noise.

Brussels Griffon Dog history Brussels griffons appeared in Belgium, where they were highly appreciated for their ability to catch mice. They were especially popular among the owners of stables, as these dogs on some inexplicable, internal level are well in harmony with horses. They were kept both in private stables at homeownership, and in the stables of the city equestrian taxi (we called them cabbies).  The creation of the dog Brussels griffon involved breeds affenpinscher, a toy English spaniel, and to create a smooth-haired type of griffon also used Pug. Affenpinscher has a fundamental influence on the size and wavy texture of wool, and the influence of toy spaniels is especially noticeable in large and very expressive eyes, rounded head shape, and a peculiar lower jaw.  By the end of the 19th century, the Brussels griffon became popular not only as a dog for hunting parasites in the stables but also as a pet with a very unusual appearance. Moreover, despite its working past, the dog was willingly started by people from the noble class.  Maria Henrietta, the Belgian queen, and part-time big dog lover fell in love with the little griffin and began to breed them on their own, as well as promote these dogs in other European countries. This happened after Belgian breeders created the first written standard of the breed in 1883, after which the Belgian griffin began to take part in exhibitions. It was after one of the dogs shows That Maria Henrietta wanted a dog like that.  In Brussels in 1889 was created "Club du Griffon Brussels", Norton reflected only the smooth-haired type of this breed, named Griffon Branson. Dogs of both types with rough and smooth hair got to England around 1890. A few years later, several individuals were transported to the United States, where they also found a lot of fans.  In the U.S. there are two types of Brussels griffons: a griffin with coarse wool and a griffin with smooth hair called Branson. In Belgium, they develop three types: fine Branson (with smooth hair, as in The U.S.), Brussels griffin with coarse red hair, and Belgian griffin with coarse hair, any color except red.  During the First and Second World Wars, the number of these dogs worldwide was greatly reduced, and if it were not for the American breeders, the very existence of the breed would be in question. After all, in Europe, they are almost gone, and in England the small population that existed there was also under attack.

The head is rounded, the ears are standing, and the muzzle is a little flattened, with a characteristic mustache and beard, which is why many say that the griffon looks like "wiki" from Star Wars. Ears are stand-up. The tail is short; the coat can be smooth or stiff.     personality At once we can say that this is a very cute and good-natured dog, which, at the same time, has a somewhat cheeky and even brazen temper. But it is rather funny and not with anger, and rarely brings trouble. Especially, if the owner properly socializes his dog, and loves her, then these qualities allow her to become the soul of any company, and to join any environment. Although it is fair to say that not all griffons are similar to each other, some of them are more shy, others, on the contrary, brazen and bold.  Brussels griffin always needs close contact with his owner and his family, he loves his loved ones and is ready to spend all his free time with them. Often these dogs literally stick to their owners and need your attention. If they don't get attention, their behavior may even be too defiant and a little strange. Also, the Brussels griffin does not like to stay at home alone for a long time, because such a dog will not suit everyone.  These are quite active animals that love different games, and love walks, especially if there is somewhere to have fun with other dogs. But if your pet goes with you for a morning jog, he will also be immensely happy, and it is unknown what he will like more - a run with the owner or playing with other dogs. Perhaps the truth is that in the life of a pet there was both the first and the second.
