Landseer E.C.T. (Europees Continentaal Type), Landseer E.C.T. (Europees Continentaal Type) Dog, Landseer E.C.T. (Europees Continentaal Type) Breeders

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN Canada/Europe..

MOST SUITED AS Family pet.

SIZE
The shoulder height is 72 - 80cm (281/2 - 311/2in) for dogs and 67 - 72cm (261/2 - 281/2in) for bitches. Small variations above and below these stan­dards are permitted.

COAT
The under-layer of the coat is soft, the outer coat is long, thick, and without curls. The color is white with black patches, and a black head with white blaze is much preferred. For showing, it is preferable not to have black spots on the coat.

CARE REQUIRED
Regular brushing and combing is sufficient, spe­cifically paying attention to the places where tangles are likely to occur, such as between the hind and front legs. Keep the ear passages clean and snip away excessive hair between the pads of the feet. The Landseer, in common with other big dogs, grows fairly quickly and needs high quality nu­trition. Adapt exercise during this phase to pre­vent overworking a growing body.

CHARACTER
The Landseer is an amiable, soft-natured, straight forward, affectionate, docile, sociable, self-aware, and equable dog which is friendly towards people and animals, and is a keen swimmer. It will protect the members of the family and the house and garden if necessary. The Landseer is not a barker, and voicing their opinion when really required.

TRAINING
Normally this breed is not difficult to train. Teach the young dog to walk to heel and not to pull on the lead, because when fully grown they are much too strong to control.

SOCIAL BEHAVIOR
The Landseer is a fine family dog, which will live in harmony with other dogs and household pets. Children often receive special attention from them (in a positive sense). Visitors who have no evil intentions will be treated in a friendly manner.

EXERCISE
Do not take it on exhausting long walks until it is fully grown. They love to swim and this is an ideal form of exercise for them.

SPECIAL REMARKS
The Landseer is well protected against poor weather and it is not therefore necessary for it to have to be indoors in the warm.
