Laizhou Hong (萊州紅), also known as Zhuqiao Hong (朱橋紅), Sulian Hong (蘇聯紅), Shandong Hong (山東紅), Shanhong Quan (山红犬), Huxing Quan (虎形犬), Chuanhong Quan (川红犬), Laizhouhong Dog (萊州紅犬), Red dog of Laizhou and Chinese Red Dog, is a companion dog, working dog, and guard dog.[1]

Background

Laizhou Hong originated in Zhuqiao Town, Laizhou City, Shandong Province, China in the 19th century. It was bred by local enthusiasts using Xigou, Langqing Quan and other native Chinese dog breeds as well as Great Danes, German Shepherds, Rottweilers and other breeds.[2][3] Laizhou Hong is now widely distributed throughout China. They are known for their calm and loyal personality, unique ornamental value and ability to quickly adapt to new environments and cope with situations.[4][5]

While the Laizhou Hong appeared in the 2019 World Dog Show in Shanghai under Group 11 - Non FCI Breeds, it remains a rare breed outside of China. Laizhou Hong puppies have gorgeous red coats and tall, pointed ears, making them a desirable addition to any dog-loving family. However, they require a job to do to keep them mentally and physically stimulated.[6]

Laizhou Hong has already been recognized by China Kennel Union and is classified in FCI Group 2.[7]

Appearance

Laizhou Hong is a large, molosser-type(mastiff) dog with strong athletic ability. They are muscular and have red, black or Reddish brown fur with black saddle, etc.[8]

Laizhou Hong's tongue has the common characteristics of Chinese dog breeds, and has black spots on the tongue or a black or bluish-black tongue.[9] The same is true for their gums. Some Laizhou Hong's gums will appear black, which is a common feature of Chinese dog breeds.[10]

Laizhou Hong's ears are usually erect and do not require ear cropping.[11]
