The Brac d’Auvergne is a versatile Gun Dog breed from France. The Brac d’Avargne was named for the region of Overgne in south central France. The breed was developed to hunt in the jungles and mountains of the area, specifically to locate birds, to the point, to flush, and to reclaim. The Brac d’Auvergne almost went extinct as a result of World War II, but has been making a recovery in recent years. Braque d’Auvergne is also known as Braque d’Auvergne Pointer, Braque du Auvergne, Auvergne Pointer, Auvergnese Pointer, Auvergne Pointing Dog, Auvergnese Pointing Dog, Auvergnian Pointer, Auvergnian Pointer Dog Dog French Pointer. And Ballu D’Avargane.
The Brac d’Avargne was developed in an era before keeping written records of dog breeding. As a result, much of its early history has been lost over time. It is known to ensure that this breed was one of the oldest local breeds of French Braque, and it developed in the region of Auvergne before the end of the 1700s. Braque d’Auvergne, a breed of Braque, is a term used to describe a group of closely related smooth-coated French pointing dogs.
While there is substantial controversy between fundamentalists and canine historians, it is almost universally accepted that the Brac Frankis (Gascogne) was the original Brac breed, and that all other Brac are primarily its descendants. There are two major theories about the origin of Brac Frankis (Gascogne). Many claim that it evolved from Chien d’Aosel, a bird like spaniel that was once common in the south of France. If this is the case, then crosses with French schenhydes such as the Grand Sleau de Gascogne and Petit Blu de Gascogne were certainly used to refine the breed. Others believe that the Brac francis (Gascogne) was created by crossing Spanish and Italian pointing dogs such as the now extinct Spanish Pointer and Broca Italian. Similar dogs are considered ancestors of the English pointer. Although, the breed was developed, Brac francis (Gascogne) became very popular with hunters throughout France, and was ubiquitous throughout the country until the late 1600s.
France is a large country by European standards, and has incredibly diverse climatic, geographic, environmental, floral, and zoological features. Different regions of France require very different Hunting Dogs. Because of this, Brac francis (Gascogne) was crossed throughout France with mainly local Hunting Dogs, mainly from scannhydes. This resulted in the production of many unique Brac breeds. One of these was the oldest, and perhaps the oldest, Braque d’Auvergne. Brac d’Avargne appears for the first time in historical records in the 1700s. It is not clear whether the Brac d’uvergne was developed entirely from the local Brac Francais (Gascognes) or whether it was developed by crossing Braque Francais (Gascogne) with local dogs. If other breeds were used, the Grand Balleau de Gascogne and Petit Blu de Gascogne are most likely based on the coat color shared with the Braque d’Avargne. Ourgane itself is divided into several sub-regions, one of which is Cantal (often referred to as Chantal in English). Cantal is home to a large number of Puisés, and possibly the most rural area in the whole of France. The Brac d’Auvergne is particularly associated with the cantal, where it has traditionally been more common than elsewhere.
The Brac d’Auvergne is similar to other French pointing dogs, but still retains a unique set of features. Braque d’Auvergne is medium to large in size. Males are typically 22½ to 24 tall at the shoulder while females are typically between 21 and 23 . While weight is greatly influenced by the size of the dog, position, and penis, most breed members weigh between 48 and 62 pounds in proper hunting conditions. Braque d’Auvergne is first and foremost with a working Gundoga and should always appear as such. This breed should be completely devoid of any exaggerated trait that would affect its action potential. Braque d’Auvergne exemplifies the lit and athletic look for most Continental hooligans, and should be very fit and heavily introduced. The tail of the Braque d’Auvergne is traditionally about half the natural length, about 6 to 8 in length. However, this practice is falling out of favor and is actually banned in some countries. The natural tail of the brake d’Auvergne is between 12 and 14 in length, it is relatively high, strong at the base and always upright.
Brac d’Auvergne’s head and face are relatively large for the dog’s body shape, especially in terms of length. The skull of this breed is oval in shape. The head and muzzle of the Brac d’Auvergne are quite different from each other, but still blend relatively easily. The muzzle itself is quite long (the entire length of the skull) and quite wide. This provides the breed with the largest possible area for odor receptors. The upper lip of the bag completely covers the lower lip, giving the muzzle a square appearance. Braque d’Auvergne’s ears are relatively long and hang down close to the sides of the head, although they are often in the front. Braque d’Auvergne has large eyes, is set deep in the head, and has deep hazels in color. The expression of most of the breed members is kind and gentle.
Braque d’Auvergne’s coat is short and shiny, but not perfect. The skin should be loose on most parts of the body, but never wrinkled or crooked. Braque d’Auvergne only comes in an acceptable color pattern, black with white markings. These signs can be tick, cry, or a combination of both. This means that the Braque d’Auvergne has a large number of small dark spots, indicating that the breed is involved in ticks and or large, solid black markings. The head and ears of this breed are preferable to being solid black, and white blazes are particularly favorite. However, these are not necessary. Sometimes a Brac d’Auvergne is born in an alternate color, such as with solid black, solid white, or brown markings. Such dogs are disqualified in the show ring and should not be bred, but otherwise acceptable pets make members of the color breed in general.
Since it first appeared in history, the breed has always been associated with the Organza and some surrounding areas. Auvergne is one of the most geographic and least densely populated regions of Western Europe. The region is very mountainous and has a large number of extinct volcanoes known as pies. The population of Auvergne is traditionally much lower than in most of France, and the vast tracts of Auvergne lands remain largely uninhabited to the present day. It has created a haven for wildlife, and Braque d’Auvergne has always found birds to hunt. Auvergnese hunters carefully restricted their Braque d’Auvergnes to work in the unique conditions of their homeland, as well as local species.
The Brac d’Avergne was probably never common outside its native region, but it was known to hunters throughout France. The breed made some regular appearances on the early French dog shows, but was never as popular or successful on the show as Breck Saint-Germain. In 1913, Reunion des Amateurs de Braque d’Auvergne (RABA) was founded to protect and promote the breeding of purebred d’Auvergnes. The club began working closely with the French Kennel Club and the French Ministry of Agriculture, and was eventually officially recognized by both organizations.
The gestation period in lasts for 60-64 days The primary period of the reproductive cycle of the female is called Proestrus and goes on for around 9 days. During this time the females begin to draw in males. The subsequent part is the Estrus when the bitch is receptive to the male. It goes on for around 3 to 11 days. The third part is the Diestrus. Usually, it happens around day 14. In this period the bitch’s discharge changes for distinctive red and reaching its end. The vulva gets back to average, and she will no longer allow mating. The fourth part called the Anestrus. The time span between heat periods ordinarily keeps going around a half year. The litter size ranges between 6 to 8 puppies at a time.
The grooming requirements of Braque d’Auvergne are very low. This breed never requires professional grooming; Only a regular brush is necessary. The owners have to clean the ears of this breed carefully and regularly. Otherwise its drying ears will trap dirt, food, water, and other particles that can cause irritation and infection. There seems to be no report of Brac d’Avergne being shed, but this breed is almost certainly a cheddar, and probably a heavy one.
As with all breeds, initial socialization and puppy training classes are recommended. This breed has a reputation for being difficult to house. However, in every other case, it is very easy to train them. For example, They like to perform tricks and learn new ones quickly. They respond very well to training based on positive rewards rather than harsh or negative methods. This breed is required to live with his family and is likely to result in undesirable behaviour if he is regularly left alone for long periods of time.
This breed is classified as “”somewhat active””, but is average. Long segments of quiet activity are often spread with brief bursts of high activity, often simply moving around the house or yard. In addition to walking, daily play sessions are required. Another dog can be a good exercise partner, but they will still need quality playtime with his owner. A fence-backed backyard is a good idea; Bichons are surprisingly fast, and if someone makes a dash for freedom, it can be difficult to catch or call you back. They enjoy obedience, agility and participating in rally competitions.
They should perform well on high-quality dog food, whether it is commercially manufactured or prepared with the supervision and approval of your vet. Any diet should be appropriate for the age of the dog (puppy, adult or senior). Some dogs are at risk of being overweight, so watch your dog’s calorie consumption and weight level. Treatment training can be an important aid, but giving too much can lead to obesity. Know which human foods are safe for dogs, and which are not. If you have any concerns about your dog’s weight or diet, check with your vet. Clean, freshwater must be available at all times.
It does not appear that any health studies have been conducted on the Brac d’Organe which makes it impossible to make a definitive statement about the health of the breed. Most fans agree that the dog is good for average health. The breed may be at risk of many health problems due to its small gene pool, as the entire breed descended from about 25 individual dogs that survived World War II. French breeders are most concerned about hip dysplasia, and have settled on several fertility restrictions designed to reduce its occurrence in the breed. The life expectancy of this breed is usually estimated between 10 and 14 years, although it is unclear what those estimates are.
Because skeletal and visual problems have been known to occur in this breed (especially hip dysplasia), owners are advised to take their pets to the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) and the Canine Eye Registration Foundation (CERF) Test by both.
OFA and CERF perform genetic and other tests before identifying potential health defects. It is particularly valuable in detecting conditions that do not appear until the dog has reached an advanced age, it is especially important for anyone considering breeding their dog , Which has tested them to prevent the spread of potential genetic conditions to their offspring.
Although health studies have not yet been conducted on the Brac d’Overgne, they are for closely related breeds. Some of the issues that have been explored include:
