Buryat Mongolian Wolfhound
history
Buryat-Mongolian wolfhound is a very ancient breed with a
rich history, for many centuries, deserved the respect of man. The exact origin
of the breed has not yet been established, however, archaeological excavations
carried out in the "Gunn settlement" on the outskirts of the city of
Ulan Ude have shown the following.
The remains of dogs found in this place are almost identical
in structure to modern wolfhounds. These ancient dogs are the oldest of all
breeds in this area, and the territory where the ancient wolfhounds lived,
covers Buryatia, part of Mongolia, part of Kazakhstan and Tuva, part of China, and Tibet.
They are considered aboriginals of these places.
Accordingly, Buryat-Mongolian wolfhounds are ancient similar dogs from Tibet (they
are called - Tibetans), although before the excavation many researchers
believed the opposite. nay. Even in the wilds of Siberia today you can find
this dog, and it appeared there clearly not in the last century, but in a much
earlier time.
In Buryatia they are also called Banhar, hotosho (or
hot-matter depends on pronunciation), Tibetan (Tibetan dog - although, strictly
speaking, these are two different breeds, which confirmed the above
excavations). From ancient times they were used as guards for home and
livestock, as well as for hunting. Often wolfhounds guarded Buddhist
monasteries. The Russian Cynological Federation recognized the breed in 2000.
