Bad Salzhausen celebrates Spinone Italiano: Clever, charming and versatile!

Bad Salzhausen was in the sign of the Spinone Italiano last weekend. The first major event of the Spinone Italiano Club Germany (SICD) attracted 32 of these charming dogs and their families from Germany, Belgium and Slovenia to the picturesque spa town. During the club weekend, visitors were given the opportunity to take part in workshops on fur care and hunting training in order to learn more about this versatile companion. A dog show crowned the event and highlighted the beauty and nature of the spinones, which are also known as Italian resistance.

The Spinone Italiano is a hunting dog breed that is well suited as a loyal companion for the whole family. Originally bred for bird hunt in thorny scrub, the name "Spinone" does not come from - it is derived from the Italian word for "thorns". These inquisitive dogs are known for their loyalty and friendliness and show a remarkable connection with people. Your athletics enable you to go up full of hunting and outdoor activities such as hiking. Nevertheless, spinones feel most comfortable in a family environment and are not the best candidates for life in small apartments.

skins, care and training

An exciting aspect of the event was the intensive examination of the grooving of the spinones. Their robust, rough and weatherproof fur needs regular care. Experts advise you to brush the dogs thoroughly at least twice a week to remove matters and loose hair. It is important to pay special attention to the longer hair on the ears, face and legs. The fur even has a self -cleaning effect, so that a bathroom is usually sufficient every few months, except for heavy pollution. Too frequent bathing can damage the natural oils of the fur, so it should be applied carefully.

Training plays an important role in the life of a spinone. These intelligent dogs require positive training to develop their innate skills. Some of the spinones present are not only loyal houses, but also rescue dogs in relay groups, where they are used, among other things, in searches for space and as a mantrailer. Veterinarian Sonja Schmitt describes the Spinone as a pleasant and relaxed companion who likes to spend time with her family.

health and nutrition

The health of these charming dogs has also been discussed, because how many breeds are spinone susceptible to some health problems. This includes, among other things, hip dysplasia and ear infections. Regular visits to the vet are just as important as a balanced diet that is tailored to its size and energy. You should also have suitable retreat and employment to avoid the fear of separation.

Overall, the club weekend in Bad Salzhausen not only promoted the knowledge of the Spinone Italiano, but also created a strong sense of community among the owners and lovers of this special dog breed. The versatility and adaptability of the spinones make you ideal companions, be it as a working or family dog- the main thing is that your skills are encouraged and appreciated.
