Gelve, also known as Greyhound, is a kind of high-speed hound. It is known as the king of speed because of its strong body structure, excellent eyesight and quick response. So what is Quaker's body shape when he can run fast?
1, slender figure
Gelve's physical characteristics are long limbs, compact trunk, muscular and smooth body lines. In particular, its long neck and body shape provide great power for its running, enabling it to run very fast, with a speed of up to 45 miles per hour.
Because of its slender figure, it is difficult to run fast if it is overweight, so it is necessary for Gervais who are prone to get fat to control their diet and maintain their ideal weight.
2. Large and flexible soles
Gelve's feet are big and flexible, which is one of the key factors for them to run so fast. Guernsey dogs run like treadmills, so their feet need a strong support, so that they can keep their balance and reduce the potential stress during each step of running.
In addition, the paws of Guernsey dogs need to be flexible enough so that they can touch the ground in a down-to-earth manner without slipping or losing grip.
3. Be good at controlling weight
Guerrilla dogs need to be slim to play fast. To control the weight of Gervais, the owner needs to provide them with a balanced diet, reduce the intake of high-calorie food and provide them with adequate exercise. In addition, regular physical examination, timely detection and treatment of physical problems are also the key to maintaining good health.
4. Healthy cardiopulmonary function
Gervais also needs a healthy cardiopulmonary system to run quickly, that is, it needs enough oxygen and a suitable heart rate to maintain high-intensity exercise. Therefore, Guernsey dogs need to participate in long-term aerobic exercise, such as long-distance jogging or walking, to promote the development of healthy cardiopulmonary system.
In addition, sub-healthy dogs will feel exhausted as long as they move a little, even if the muscle lines are perfect enough, they can't run fast. Therefore, the owner also needs to provide them with enough rest and sleep time to ensure their physical and mental health.
