DVD - Introduction to the Canaan Dog

(DVD Video Pal - 00h45- Stereo - Multizone - Language : English, by Myrna Shiboleth)

This DVD is illustrated with more than 100 photographs. It shows the lecture given by Myrna Shiboleth on June 19, 2004, during the French Championship in Nantes (France). On this occasion, she wanted to make the French judges, breeders and owners aware of the precautions to be taken so that Canaan Dog remains true to its origins: i.e. a dog shaped for survival, armed with natural and original characteristics.

In introduction, she places the Canaan in relation to the history of the dog in general, and to the other paria dogs in the world. Subsequently she introduces the most important characteristics of the breed that should be preserved. Lastly, she makes the assessment of how the breed type is tending to diverge in different countries.
