The Tibetan mastiff's standard is chaotic now. According to the US AKC Tibetan Mastiff standard, Tibetan mastiffs are wolf toes!
"Previous: The shoulders naturally upward, muscles and strong bones. The legs are straight and the feet are slightly over. The round -type cymbal. There can be feather -like hairs between the toes. The back of the body: The hind legs and hips: strong, multi -muscle and each part of each part. The hind legs and the joints stand parallel, the hind legs are strong, very upright (about 1/3 of the length of the entire leg). Foot: there are wolf toes in the back feet, you can choose to remove the wolf toe behind. "(AKC Tibetan Mastiff Standard)
Is when breeding purebred dogs abroad, veterinarians usually do "wolf toes" resection within 3-4 days of the dog's birth; if not done in time, there is usually no major hindrance. But for those mountain dogs that often climb the foot of the mountain, if the "wolf toes" are not cleared in time, it will affect their actions; although its "wolf toe" may be well worn with other toes in practice.
"wolf toe" usually grows fast and faster than other toes. Therefore, trimming in time is necessary (especially those who are not controlled) to avoid being hanged by foreign bodies in exercise. Tear. There are many cases that are scraped by wood and rocks in foreign countries, causing damage (because some of them do not exercise with other toes, and highlight it.)
If for our Tibetan mastiff This problem is not a prominent problem, it is a health care nature. Most of our mainland do not need Tibetan mastiff climbing foothills, and there will be no prominent trouble. If it is a place of origin, due to the understanding of this issue, the means of solving, and the adaptability of the Tibetan mastiff itself to the environment and practice, it will not have outstanding trouble. If the Tibetan mastiff standard has further requirements in the future, then
The ancestor of the dog is a gray wolf. As a gray wolf, if you want to survive, you must prey in other animals. The wolf toe will play a certain role in it. For example, it can increase friction and increase the flexibility of hunting. But as a dog, especially pet dogs, this extra toe will not only use it but also bring side effects. As a pet dog, the wolf toe has begun to degenerate, and friends will find that some wolf toes do not have bones and trunk, and even some nails. First of all, from the perspective of security, there are already unsafe factors. If the dog runs crazy, it may not be able to step on the ground when you go up and down. Because it is independent), the wolf toes will break down at once, causing separation from the limbs, but it is a living force to tear off a finger with external force.
