O que tem de assumir

Ninguém escreveu ainda este lado. É um juízo e não dados, por isso espera por uma pessoa — não por uma fonte que falte.

Retirado de fontes e não escrito como opinião — investigação de saúde citada, o padrão do próprio registo, e estudos de longevidade revistos por pares. Padrão da raça, FCI. Os animais de um criador podem diferir de tudo isto, e uma coluna vazia significa que não temos nada desse lado, não que não haja nada a dizer.

Characteristics

Padrão da FCI · Istrian Short Haired Hound

Pelo e cor

Tal como o padrão da FCI o estabelece. Cada linha abaixo está nas palavras do próprio padrão, etiquetada com preferred.

Coat

The hair has to be hard, dense, shiny and lying close to the body.

Its length is around 1–2 cm.

Sometimes the hair is a little longer on the back of the thighs and on the underside of the tail, which is tolerated but it is not desirable

Cor

  • Preferred
  • Permissible
  • Undesirable
  • Disqualifying

«Preferred», «permissible», «undesirable» e «disqualifying» — preferida, admissível, indesejável e desqualificante — são as palavras da própria FCI sobre a raça, e ficam em inglês porque é assim que constam do padrão. Descrevem o que o padrão exige — não são uma avaliação de nenhum cão em concreto, nem nossa.

  • The basic colour is snow-white with orange coloured markings on the body and on the head.
  • The orange coloured markings can be found in all shades, but shades must be even.
  • The total amount of orange coloured markings must not exceed one third of the whole body.
  • On the head the markings can be found on the ears, on the skull and on the foreface but the head must not be completely orange coloured.
  • Preferred: A symmetrical spread of the markings on the head
  • The markings on the body can be anywhere, mostly on the back, on the ribcage and around the tail set.
  • Markings have the shape of spots, which have to be clearly separated.
  • They must not get uneven or paler towards the edges of the markings.
  • Small spots, if visible through white basic colour, can usually be found on ears

O que o padrão penaliza

Aquilo que faz um juiz descontar pontos à raça Istrian Short Haired Hound, e o que a põe fora do ring, nas palavras do próprio registo. Isto descreve o padrão da raça — não é uma lista de verificação para o animal que tem à frente, e um animal de companhia com um defeito desqualificante é um cão que não pode ir a exposição, não um cão doente.

Põem o animal fora do ring por completo.

  • Dogs, which clearly show physical or behavioural abnormalities.
  • Converging headlines.
  • Muzzle longer than skull.
  • Untypically short muzzle.
  • Concave or convex nasal bridge.
  • Undershot or overshot, wry mouth.
  • Blue eyes.
  • Totally unpigmented nose, eyelids or liprims.
  • Body length shorter than the height at the withers.
  • Short-legged dogs of achondroplastic type.
  • Tail carried in a ring or a laterally curved tail.
  • Coat on the body longer than 2.5 cm.
  • Red, chestnut brown, lemon yellow markings or any other coat colour not in the standard.
  • Presence of a third coat colour.
  • Height above or below the tolerated measures in the standard
