Leonberger Detailed Introduction

Leonberger, originally from Germany, was a breed that was created in the first half of the 19th century by mating St. Bernards with Newfoundlands and Great Pyrenees to imitate the lion on the emblem of the German city of Leonberger. It was selected and bred several times.

In 1840, Heinrich Issag, the mayor of Ramberg, Germany, wanted to breed a new breed of dog with features like the dog on the city emblem. Undoubtedly, the name of this dog was called the Ramberg dog. It was successfully bred by the famous German dog breeder Heinrich Issag. He bred the St. Bernard with a Newfoundland and a Great Pyrenees, and selected and bred it. This dog was not allowed to spread abroad for many years. When the later Lambeau dog needed to go abroad, it was favored by the Japanese royal family, which caused jealousy and slander. In 1832, this dog was introduced by a monk and directly introduced to Switzerland, and it was also well evaluated.

The fur of the Lambeau dog can prevent water from penetrating, and it loves water by nature. What is even more surprising is that there are webbed feet between its toes, so it can move leisurely in the water, so after training, it can become an outstanding water survival dog. In addition, it can also be used as a guard dog and trained to pull a cart.

The face of the large dog looks quite fierce, but the personality is unexpectedly cheerful and generous. It is also gentle and obedient, and can be used as a playmate for children. Good at judging the situation. When he finds suspicious sounds or people, he immediately feels the responsibility to protect his family and is ready to take corresponding actions. But he usually likes to lie down and seems unable to control his huge body.
