The Black Forest ("Der Schwarzwald") in southwestern Germany will be the house of the Cuckoo Clock (Kuckucksuhr), invented in the region within the 17th century. The long, harsh winters inside the Schwarzwald during that time meant people spent long hours inside their homes, when they needed both something to do to pass the time and an further source of income to supplement their function in the nearby mines. The largely forested location surrounding them inspired them to start producing wooden crafts. Amongst the goods they developed were nutcrackers ("Nussknackers"), incense burners ("Smoking Men" or R?ucherm?nner), and clocks that mimicked the cry of the cuckoo bird.
Cuckoo Clocks: A Brief History; Until the early 1600's, time telling devises in Germany consisted of sundials and hourglasses. All of that changed in 1630, when a man named Franz Kettler from Triberg, Germany went to what's now the Czech Republic, and brought back the concept of a clock. It was a uncomplicated style, called a wooden beam clock, and had wooden gears and stones as weights. Soon, clock producing became a source of pride, and provided occupation in the course of winter months. A special group called the Hauslers developed. These men were the younger sons of land owners, and utilised clock creating as an extra source of income.
Black Lab?
I have a black lab thats tail has gone almost limp. Today she was wagging her tail as she always does but it was beating against a wall. She did not yelp or anything like that, but it now biting it and almost favoring her tail. She lets me look at it, and I do not see any lice, flees or anything of the sort. She still waggs it but it is low towards the ground, not high like a normal wagg. If you guys have any thoughts or anything like that please let me know. The reason i havnt taken her to the vet yet is because we are 900 miles away from home, and it is about 10 o clock at night so no place is open. Thanks for anything you have to offer.
I would keep an eye on her overnight as best you can and take her to the vet tomorrow if you are still concerned. It doesn't sound like she broke it, she probably would be extremely sensitive and yelp when you manipulated it. She might not even be able to move/feel it at all. Just leave her alone and let her rest this evening.
No telling what she's done. She will probably be just fine but contact a vet if you are still unsure.
Best of luck with your girl!
The very first Black Forest Cuckoo Clocks: It isn't identified who built the very first cuckoo clocks within the Black Forest, but is is recognized that this fascinating and appealing clock swiftly circumvented the realm. One of the earliest identified Cuckoo Clock makers was Franz Anton Ketterer (1676-1749) whose heritage is in the Sch?nwald in Schwarzwald. By the mid eighteenth century many clock makers had set up shops and were producing cuckoo clocks that worked with the aid of wooden plates and gears. The clocks had been beautifully carved and decorated with hand painted shields. The very first Cuckoo Clocks had been quite simple having only square faces and painted with water colors. As the clocks evolved and grew a lot more refined in their designs, they were also embellished with animated birds who flapped their wings and moved their beaks. There are lots of conflicting stories and legends which tell the story of the origins of the Cuckoo Clock within the Black Forest, but none of the stories may be verified. We also have to bear in mind that the concept of placing a cuckoo bird in a clock complete with sound and movement didn't originate inside the Black Forest. Having said that it is the persons of the Black Forest who developed in industry, and improved on the technologies and designs which have created Black Forest Cuckoo Clocks extremely desired timepieces all over the world. "Time is gold" as the saying goes and so are clocks like the Wall Clock Black you will see on this page. The value of time imprinted on the clocks produced.
At the end of the eighteenth century and up to the middle of the nineteenth century Cuckoo Clocks essentially consisted of a a flat wooden face with the workings of the clock attached behind the face. On leading of the face of the clock was place a semi circular piece of wood which was adorned with gorgeous designs and which housed the cuckoo bird. Throughout the cold winter nights the clock makers would work making their stunning highly decorated clocks. Inside the Spring the clocks were then sold by door to door by clock peddlers who carried the Cuckoo Clocks by means of a rack which was carried on their backs. Entire families would function in their cottages making the Cuckoo Clocks and each and every family members member had the expertise of producing certain pieces of the clock which was then assembled by however an additional family member. Styles of Cuckoo Clocks: There are plenty of styles of Cuckoo Clocks, one of the most familiar being the Swiss Chalet Style which evolved about the end of the nineteenth century. Essentially the most fundamental type of Cuckoo Clock is the One Day Cuckoo Clock which wants to be wound 1 time each and every day. Next there is the Eight Day Cuckoo Clock which needs to be wound only 1 time per week. Each of these clocks has a musical version along with the addition of a Swiss music box. Animated figures now are added including a man sawing wood, men drinking beer as well as a water wheel turning. Themes of the Cuckoo Clock include deer heads, dead and live animals, leaves and birds. Later versions now incorporate a Quartz Cuckoo Clock which does not need to be wound and which has the recorded sound of an actual Cuckoo. The production center of the Cuckoo Clock is still the Black Forest of Germany, along with the Cuckoo Clock is still a favorite of the tourist visiting there. May stories including such as those for young children have been written about Cuckoo Clocks and like the Cuckoo Clocks themselves they stay favorite to this day.
