	Entlebucher Mountain Dog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Entlebucher Mountain Dog is a breed of dog in the Swiss mountain dog family of breeds.
		Like all of the Swiss mountain dogs, its origins are ancient, probably dating back to Roman times, but today's breed standards were solidified in the 1800s when Franz Schertenleib made a concerted effort to track down, identify, and breed this small mountain dog.
		The breed is named for the Swiss town of Entlebuch in Lucerne.

		Measured at the withers, dogs are 25 to 27½½ inches; bitches are 23 to 26 inches.
		When the Bernese Mountain Dog is alert, the ears are brought forward and raised at the base; the top of the ear is level with the top of the skull.
		The Bernese Mountain Dog is shown in natural coat and undue trimming is to be discouraged.

	Page Title
		It is thought that this breed and the other Swiss Mountain dogs are descended from dogs introduced by the Romans over 2000 years ago.
		Entlebucher type dogs were known to exist as early as 1889 although at this time there was probably little difference between these and the Appenzeller.
		However the Entlebucher's popularity started to gain momentum as its qualities as a tireless cattle driving and utility dog, as well as a trusted companion, began to be recognised.

	Appenzeller mountain dog
		And, finally, an audible difference: whilst the Entlebucher´s bark is deep and gruff, the Appenzeller uses his voice in different ways according to the situation varying from a deep bark to a higher pitched rumbling to a high tone - used especially when herding.
		The dogs are particularly suitable for those who wish to work professionally with their dog and they can be trained as tracking or rescue dogs, as guard dogs (see picture left) or even as guide dogs (further information on this is available from the Swiss Club for Appenzeller Mountain Dogs, which provided these photos).
		The dogs are not suited to flat life and if the dog will have to be left alone for long periods, it would be better to consider another breed, or indeed another kind of pet.

	Temperment
		The Entlebucher Mountain Dog is a very gentle animal, especially with children.
		The dog is very adaptable to different kinds of environments, however at least an hour a day must be set aside for play time.
		The dog typically is trained best on a reward system vs. a punishment-based setting, but some consequences must be carried out, for example, for housebreaking the dog (Which, by the way, is also very easy to do.) As far as I can remember, it took 1 or 2 accidents, and it was done.
