1888 Breeds Dane De L Specimen Dalziel
EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the majestic presence of Dalziel, a tan Great Dane named M Del Riegos Cid Campreador, born in the late 19th century. The image, taken in 1888, showcases Dalziel as a historical specimen of the Great Dane breed, showcasing the breed's distinctive features such as its large size, powerful build, and elegant, muscular form. Great Danes have a rich history that can be traced back to ancient Egypt, where they were revered for their hunting abilities and protective nature. However, it was in Germany during the 17th and 18th centuries that the breed as we know it today began to take shape. Dalziel is a testament to the breed's development and the care and dedication of its breeders. The tan coloration of Dalziel's coat, also known as the "Harlequin" pattern, is a desirable trait in the breed. The tan color is evenly distributed over the body, with black spots or "masks" around the eyes, ears, and muzzle. The coat is short and smooth, making grooming relatively easy. Dalziel's proud and regal posture exudes confidence and strength, reflecting the breed's reputation as a loyal and protective companion. Great Danes were originally bred as hunting dogs, but they have since become beloved family pets and show dogs. Their size and power make them an impressive sight, but their gentle and affectionate nature makes them wonderful companions for people of all ages. This photograph of Dalziel is a valuable historical record of the Great Dane breed and a reminder of the importance of preserving the breed's heritage. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of this magnificent breed and the joy they bring to those who are fortunate enough to share their lives with them.
