Bear face dogs confuse Russian people

A dog with a long muzzle and a bear-like face found on Russian streets may be the result of a spoiled breeding process.

The other shaped dog is often taken to an animal shelter in the Chelyabinsk city of the Cheliabinsk Oblast, Russia, confusing the local people because they have never seen a similar animal. Previously, the Siberian Times reported on December 17.

The stray dog ​​is nicknamed Medvebaka , which means "bear and dog" in Russian, looking like the body of a dog with a muzzle and a bear-like head. Nash Dom refuge camp shares its images and hopes to find the owner or breeder of the dog.

Veterinarians say the dog is about 4 years old, male and may be a cross between a long-bitched dog and a chow chow. The dog has a blue tongue commonly found in chow chow originating from northern China.

However, Polina Kefer, a volunteer at the refugee camp, said it was "a poor hybrid dog". "In the pet market, breeders are irresponsible to sell purebred dog breeds. When big puppies look like this, they throw them away like a broken toy , " Kefer said.

According to Kefer, the dog was severely stressed and reacted when people tried to get close to it. Volunteers tried to bring him to live in a family, but he repeatedly tried to escape and showed no interest in anyone who wanted to make friends."We try to give it the best food, but the dog is clearly so stressful that it may take weeks or months to help it regain confidence in people," a volunteer said.
