New Breed of Ornamental Dogs - Beaver

The origin of the breed began in 1984 in Germany, when a puppy with a white color was born in a famous nursery owned by Mr. Werner Beaver and his wife - Mrs. Gertrude Beaver. There is little to say about his parents Darling von Friedheck and Fru-Fru von Friedheck, they both beat Yorkshire terriers of standard color and were winners of the junior class at the exhibition in Dortmund in 1981. Then came the years of fruitful work on fixing a particular color and the development of positive characteristics in dogs of this breed. Many years passed before the breed was recognized. So in Russia the breed standard Beaver was adopted in 2009.
