I believe it's a maternal behaviour-mothers will bite off the wiskers and "eyebrows" of their kittens, most likely because cat's use them to assess how big an opening is and whether or not they can fit into it. (Cats won't climb into a hole/space that is too small.) Kittens have to be protected and retrieved by the mother and she has to be able to reach them.

How hard can an Elephant bite?

Dog's are really not that hard. If you make it into your daily routine, then having a dog is life. You need to make sure you feed it at least once a day walk it twice a day (make sure they are long ones though!) Bathe it regulary maybe once every 3 months. Baths are not good for dogs. Dont forget to treat it to bones, jackets, biscuits and maybe once or twice a week give it some tit-bits. Well, I hope you enjoy looking after your dog! x

HEADShaped like a long, blunt, not too broad wedge, the plane of the forehead forming a distinctive breaking with the bridge of the nose. CRANIAL REGION: * Skull: Not too broad between the ears and tapering moderately towards the supraorbital ridges. Occipital protuberance easy to palpate; cheek bones moderately prominent. Frontal furrow only slightly marked. * Stop: Not accentuated but apparent. FACIAL REGION: * Nose: Dark and well developed. It should be black on Terriers with a grey-blue coat and liver-coloured on light-coffee brown Terriers. * Nasal bridge: Straight. * Jaws/teeth: Strong jaws. Scissors or level bite; complete dentition (the absence of the 2 M3 in the lower jaw not being penalized).

Brown or dark brown in grey-blue coated dogs, light brown in light-coffee-brown dogs. Eyelids black in grey-blue dogs, liver-colour in light-coffee-brown dogs. * Ears: Of medium size, dropping in such a way as to well cover the orifice. Set on rather high and falling flat along the cheeks. Shaped like a triangle, with the shorter side of the triangle at the fold of the ear. NECK: Medium long, quite strong, carried on a slant. The skin at the throat is somewhat loose but without forming a dewlap. BODY: Oblong. * Upper line: Not straight because loins and rump are always moderately arched. * Withers: Not very pronounced; neck set on rather high. Back: Strong, of medium length. * Loins: Relatively long, muscular, broad and slightly rounded. * Croup: Strongly developed, muscular; pelvis moderately slanting. Hip bones often slightly higher than the withers. * Chest: More cylindrical than deep; ribs well sprung. * Belly: Ample and slightly tucked up. Flanks well filled. TAIL: The ideal length is 18-20 cm; relatively strong and low set. At rest hanging downward or with a slight bend at the tip; when alert the tail is carried sabre shape horizontally or higher.

COAT TEXTURE: Hair long, fine but firm, slightly wavy with a silky gloss; not too much overdone. The Czech Terrier is groomed by scissors (clipping). At the forepart of the head the hair is not to be clipped thus forming brows and beard. On the lower parts of the legs, under the chest and belly the hair should not be clipped either. In show condition the hair at the upper side of the neck, on the shoulders and on the back should not be longer than 1 - 1.5 cm; it should be shorter on the sides of the body and on the tail and quite short on the ears, cheeks, at the lower side of the neck, on elbows, thighs and round the vent. The transition between clipped and unclipped areas should be pleasing for the eye and never abrupt. COLOUR: The Czech Terrier has 2 varieties of coat colour: * Grey-blue (puppies are born black) * Light-coffee-brown (puppies born chocolate brown) In both colour varieties yellow, grey or white markings are permitted on the head (beard, cheeks), neck, chest, belly, and the limbs and round the vent. Sometimes there is also a white collar or a white tip of the tail. The basic colour, however, must always be predominant. HEIGHT AND WEIGHT:Height at withers between 25 - 32 cm. Ideal size for a dog = 29 cm, for a bitch = 27 cm. The weight must not be less than 6 kg and more than 10 kg. FAULTS: Any departure from the foregoing points should be considered a fault and the seriousness with which the fault should be regarded should be in exact proportion to its degree. * Weak construction. * Temporary loss of nasal pigmentation (snow nose). * Weak, short or snipey foreface, with weakly developed teeth. * Absence of one (1) incisor. * Eyes too big or protruding. * Ears too big or too small, or different in shape or carriage as described in the standard. * Back too long or too short. * Crooked forelegs, incorrect front. * Coat too fine or too coarse.
