Inja yaseBernese Mountain ishaya ngobuhle bayo nokubukeka kwayo okunamandla nokho okunomusa. Yinja enkulu kakhulu enezinwele ezinde namehlo e-alimondi ansundu, elengisa izindlebe ezingunxantathu nomsila onamahlahla.

• Izinwele : ijazi le-tricolor, lide futhi liyacwebezela, libushelelezi noma li-wavy kancane.
• Usayizi (ubude buyabuna): 64 kuye ku-70 cm kwabesilisa no-58 kuye ku-66 cm wabesifazane.
• Isisindo : kusuka ku-40 kuye ku-65 ​​kg.
• Ukwahlukaniswa kwe-FCI : N ° 45.

Njengoba igama lalo liphakamisa, le nja uqobo lwayo luvela eSwitzerland futhi ngokunembile kusuka enkantini yaseBern. I-etymology yegama layo lesiJalimane Inja yaseNtabeni yaseBernese kusho ukuthi "inja yaseBern cowherd". Eqinisweni, e-pre-Alps eseningizimu yeBern, wayehamba nemihlambi yezinkomo isikhathi eside futhi esebenza njengenja esalungiswa ngokuhambisa ubisi olutholwe ekusengeleni izinkomo eziya emizini. Okungenzeka ukuthi indima yakhe kwakungukuqapha amapulazi. Kwakusekuqaleni kwekhulu le-XNUMXth lapho abalimi esifundeni baqala ukuba nesithakazelo ekuzaleni kwayo okungaxutshiwe futhi bakwethule emibukisweni yezinja kulo lonke elaseSwitzerland kuze kufike naseBavaria.

Inja yaseBernese Mountain inebhalansi ngokwemvelo, izolile, iyasebenza futhi isebenza ngokulingene. Unothando futhi uyabekezela kulabo abaseduze kwakhe, kubandakanya nezingane. Izimfanelo eziningi ezenza kube ngumngane womndeni othandwa kakhulu emhlabeni jikelele.

Uyasola ekuqaleni kubantu angabazi angabakhombisa ngokukhonkotha okukhulu, kodwa ngokuthula, bese enobungane ngokushesha. Ngakho-ke ingasebenza njengenja yokubuka kumongo womndeni, kepha lokhu akufanele kube umsebenzi wayo oyinhloko.

Le nja yomndeni futhi iyazi ukuthi ingaziveza kanjani izimfanelo ezingalindelekile ezixhunyaniswe nefa layo njengenja yasentabeni: kwesinye isikhathi isetshenziswa njengesiqondiso sabantu abangaboni kahle futhi njengenja ye-avalanche.

Inja Yentaba yaseBernese ithambekele ezifweni ezihlobene nosayizi wayo omkhulu kakhulu, njenge-hip ne-elbow dysplasia ne-torsion stomach syndrome. Basengozini enkulu yomdlavuza futhi banesikhathi sokuphila esifushane kunezinye izinhlobo eziningi.

Isikhathi sokuphila nezimbangela zokufa: Ucwaningo olwenziwe ngabaphathi bezilwane baseSwitzerland ngezinja ezingama-389 zaseBernese Mountain Dogs ezibhaliswe eSwitzerland luveze isikhathi esiphansi sokuphila: iminyaka eyi-8,4 ngokwesilinganiso (iminyaka engu-8,8 kwabesifazane, uma kuqhathaniswa neminyaka engu-7,7 kwabesilisa). Lolu cwaningo lwezimbangela zokufa kwezinja zaseBernese Mountain Dogs luqinisekise ukwanda okuphezulu kwe-neoplasia (umdlavuza. Cf. Histiocytosis) eBernese Mountain Dogs, ngaphezu kwesigamu sezinja kulandelwe (58,3%). Ama-23,4% okushona abe nesizathu esingaziwa, i-4,2% ye-arthritis ekhubazekayo, i-3,4% yokuphazamiseka komgogodla, i-3% yokulimala kwezinso. (1)

L'Histiocytose: lesi sifo, esingajwayelekile kwezinye izinja kodwa esithinta ikakhulukazi izinja zaseBernese Mountain, sibonakala ngokwakhiwa kwezicubu, ezinobungozi noma ezimbi, ezisatshalaliswa ezithweni eziningi, njengamaphaphu nesibindi. Ukukhathala, i-anorexia kanye nokwehla kwesisindo kufanele kuxwayise futhi kuholele ekuhlolweni kwe-histological (izicubu) kanye ne-cytological (cell). (1) (2)

Isisu sokuhlubuka esiswini (SDTE): Njengezinye izinja ezinkulu kakhulu, iBernese Mountain Dog isengozini ye-SDTE. Ukuhlukaniswa kwesisu ngokudla, uketshezi noma umoya kulandelwa ukusonteka, imvamisa kulandela ukudlala ngemuva kokudla. Noma yikuphi ukubonakaliswa kokuxakaniseka nokukhathazeka kanye nanoma yimiphi imizamo eyize yokuhlanza kufanele ixwayise inkosi. Isilwane sisengozini yokuvaleka kwesisu esiswini ne-vena cava, okuholele ekushaqekeni nasekufeni ngokungabikho kokungenelela kwezokwelapha ngokushesha. (3)

Ikhaya elihlangene, isibalo sabakhileyo, ingadi ebiyelwe nokuhamba kahle nsuku zonke kuyizimo zenjabulo nenhlalakahle yale nja. Umnikazi kumele aqinisekise ukuthi uyanakwa ngisho nothando, ukulawula isisindo sakhe nokunqabela imidlalo engazelelwe ngemuva kokudla ukuvimbela ubungozi besisu obugudluza izinja ezinkulu. Umnikazi kufanele aqaphele ikakhulukazi ukuthi angayicindezeli inja yakhe ukuthi yenze izivivinyo zomzimba phakathi neminyaka yokukhula kwayo (ngokwesibonelo, ukwehla nokunyuka izitebhisi).
