Some morphological traits of Tarsus Çatalburun breed of Turkish hunting dog

Year 2014, Volume: 30 Issue: 1, 25 - 29, 01.03.2014

Abstract

Aim: The present study was carried out to determine some morphological traits of Tarsus Çatalburun breed of Turkish hunting dogs under breeding condition in their homesteads, south Anatolian cities of Adana and Tarsus. Materials and Methods: Twenty-two Çatalburun dogs (12 males and 10 females) ranging in age from 2 to 6 years were used. Gender differences for all variables were tested using Student-t test. Results: This study, which used 13 measurements taken from different parts of the dogs, can be considered one of the first scientific studies about Tarsus Çatalburun dog. The means for wither height, rump height, body length, chest circumference, chest width, chest dept, front wrist circumference, back wrist circumference, head length, head circumference, head width, nozzle length and ear length were 50.78±1.02, 49.45±1.01, 54.29±0.93, 64.75±0.75, 15.75±0.24, 20.97±0.27, 11.93±0.22, 10.84±0.26, 26.95±0.29, 41.07±0.41, 11.36±0.12, 12.18±0.19 and 17.95±0.25 cm, respectively. There were significant differences (P<0.01) between the male and bitch dogs for the means of wither height, rump height, body length, chest circumference, back wrist circumference and head length. Conclusions: Further studies need to be done in order to standardize the morphological characteristics of Tarsus Çatalburun dogs along with a pedigreed and systematic breeding program.

Abstract

Amaç: Çalışma yetiştirici elinde bulunan Tarsus Çatalburun ırkı Türk av köpeklerinin bazı morfolojik özelliklerini belirlemek amacıyla, anayurtları olan Tarsus ve Adana kentlerinde yapıldı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmada, yaşları 2–6 arasında değişen 10’u dişi 12’si erkek olmak üzere toplam 22 Çatalburun köpeği kullanıldı. Cinsiyet gruplarının tüm değişkenler için karşılaştırmalarında Student-t testinden yararlanıldı.Bulgular: Tarsus Çatalburun köpekleri ile ilgili ilklerden olan bu çalışmada, 13 farklı ölçüm yapıldı. Ölçümlerde cidago yüksekliği, sağrı yüksekliği, vücut uzunluğu, göğüs çevresi, göğüs genişliği, göğüs derinliği, ön incik çevresi, arka incik çevresi, baş uzunluğu, baş çevresi, baş genişliği, burun uzunluğu ve kulak uzunluğuna ait ortalama değerler sırasıyla, 50.78±1.02, 49.45±1.01, 54.29±0.93, 64.75±0.75, 15.75±0.24, 20.97±0.27, 11.93±0.22, 10.84±0.26, 26.95±0.29, 41.07±0.41, 11.36±0.12, 12.18±0.19 ve 17.95±0.25 cm olarak elde edildi. Cidago yüksekliği, sağrı yüksekliği, vücut uzunluğu, göğüs çevresi, arka incik çevresi ve baş uzunluğu arasındaki ortalamalarda dişi ve erkek köpekler arası farklılıklar istatistikî olarak önemli (P
