Not only do you have to train them consistently, but you also have to keep up with their significant exercise demands. Chows and Goldens are both smart dogs, but that intelligence manifests itself in different ways. A Golden Retriever will use its considerable brainpower to try to find ways to make you happy. Chows love their owners too, but their brains are often used to scan for threats and offer protection. Golden Chows can closely resemble either parent breed in this regard, but they often fall somewhere in the middle. They love to spend their time playing and goofing off with their families, but they become all business as soon as a threat appears. Are These Dogs Good for Families?

However, have you ever considered a Golden Chow? This might just be one of the best choices from all the puppies and dogs available for you. These protective but gentle dogs are fantastic companions, but they are not the dog for everyone. In this article, we will take a look at this remarkable mixed-breed dog. What Is a Golden Chow? It is an attempt to take the best of two wonderful dogs. The history of the Chow Chow Golden Retriever mix is not well known. They have only emerged in the last 20 years as part of a growing trend to cross breed different purebred dogs. Some of these cross-breeds have been successful. The Labradoodle is a classic example. The hybrid is now standardized, meaning that owners know what they are getting when they buy one. The Golden Chow has not got that far. The appearance and temperament of the dog can vary depending on the parents. The first parent breed of this mix is the Chow Chow. The Chinese developed this dog more than 2, years ago as an all-around working animal. They served as farm animals, temple guards, and even army dogs! Many people are wary of the Chow Chow. It is known for being aggressive and standoffish. Some insurance companies will even increase your rates if they know that you have one of these as a pet. Without proper socializing, this dog can be mean and scary. Martha Stewart is also a fan and owns three. The other half of the equation is a lovable Golden Retriever. This breed is young compared to the Chow Chow. These dogs were developed in Scotland as hunting companions. Golden Retrievers are one of the most popular family dogs out there. This is because they are obedient, affectionate, and easy to train. They are known for being fluffy, aloof, and devoted pets. Golden Chows can be very similar to Golden Retrievers—or they could be very different. The answer depends largely on your individual dog and its genetics. As a hybrid, this dog tends to lean one way or the other. This is true for both appearance and temperament. Chow Chows usually weigh in at about 50 to 75 pounds and will stand 20 to 25 inches tall. They are considered medium-sized dogs, but they are at the larger end of the scale. Both the Golden and the Chow Chow are somewhat big dogs, so this cross is no small pup. Chow Chows can have a variety of appearances. Some will look like fluffier Golden Retrievers. Others might look like thinner Chow Chows. No matter what, you can expect a thick double coat that will need daily brushing. It will generally be more of a red or gold color, but this is not always the case. An interesting characteristic that you might find in your dog is its tongue. Chow Chows are known for their blue-black tongues, and it looks like this is a dominant trait. Your dog might have a splotchy multi-colored tongue. The mouth will also probably be darker as well. But lest that discourage you, check out this video of super adorable Golden Chow puppies. Temperament is where these dogs differ most from a Golden Retriever. This is because the two parent breeds are very different. Goldens love affection of all kinds, including from strangers. Chows are wary of people in general and are protective of their homes. If your dog leans more towards a Golden, it will be an attention-seeker. It will also be friendlier towards strangers. It will have many of the lovable traits that you look for in a Golden but might be more reserved and relaxed. A Golden Chow that leans more toward Chow traits, however, will not be as friendly. These dogs will be more protective of their homes and are suspicious of anyone who enters. If you are considering a Golden Chow, you should be prepared to change your lifestyle. These dogs will take up a lot of your time and energy when it comes to training and exercise. If they are more of a Golden Retriever, they will be easy to train. Goldens live to please people, and they are naturally obedient. They are focused to the point of obsession and will work hard to achieve any task that you give them. Goldens are also extremely active dogs. As hunting companions, they were bred to be outside and running around for long periods of time. Their favorite game in the world is fetch, especially if you throw a stick or ball into a lake or ocean. If your dog is more of a Chow Chow, training will be more difficult. You will need to establish yourself as the alpha dog right away. Chow Chows typically require more discipline than other dogs. This should never be physical though. You will likely find a unique training program that works for your dog. It is important to socialize Chow Chows and Golden Chows from an early age. The Chow side needs to learn that other animals and people do not pose a threat. The Golden Chow is only recommended to experienced dog owners. It also is not a dog for families with young children. Conclusion The Golden Chow is a difficult dog to raise. However, the reward is a sweet, loyal, and protective dog that will keep your family safe. Already Have a Golden Chow?

It has a rare blue coat color and orange eyes, which many find attractive. Nevertheless, the rarest and most expensive among all of the French Bulldog coat colors is said to be isabella. Maintaining and raising a French Bulldog is also considerably expensive. If you want to take home one of these cute dogs, you should know that they are vulnerable to many common health issues; hence, you might need to cash out more for medical expenses. Although they are costly in general, the prices of French Bulldog puppies may vary from breeder to breeder, depending on various factors. If you are curious as to why the French Bulldogs are considerably expensive dogs, here are some of the factors that directly affect their cost: Bloodline: French Bulldog puppies whose parents are show champions have higher prices than puppies from ordinary bloodlines. It is presumed the litters of champion parent dogs inherit refined qualities and temperament. Color: The coat color of a French Bulldog also greatly influences its price. Typical colors like fawn would be cheaper than a merle Frenchie because the latter is quite rare. Meanwhile, isabella is said to be the rarest color; hence, it is also the most expensive French Bulldog color. Age: Generally, French Bulldog puppies are more expensive than adults and seniors. This could be due to the high demand for puppies. Most people want to own young dogs because they want to raise them themselves. Reputable breeders do not only sell puppies but also their expertise in handling their breeding stock. Buying from them assures you that your puppy is raised ethically and healthily. Newborn puppies with complete registration and breeding rights cost more compared to puppies with limited papers. Difficulty in Breeding: Breeding French Bulldogs is quite challenging. French Bulldogs cannot reproduce naturally because of their physical structure and narrow hips. Thus, extra effort is needed not only in conceiving through artificial insemination but also in laboring. This also holds true for teacup French Bulldogs. Health Documents: Breeders usually consider the medical expenses they provide in caring for a specific puppy. If you are looking for a more economical way of owning an average Frenchie, you should opt for adoption. No one can argue that rehabilitated Frenchies can still make perfect family companions. These dogs receive ample medical care and undergo behavioral modification before being cleared for adoption. Adopting a French Bulldog is not only a financially-wise decision but also a noble act. You save money and, at the same time, a lovely soul from being homeless. If ever you decide to adopt a French Bulldog instead of buying from a reputable breeder, you should read our ultimate guide on dog adoption to ace the application. You can also check out our French Bulldog rescue directory to find the nearest animal shelter in your area. Here are the items you need to purchase before taking your French Bulldog puppy home: Food and Treats: In choosing dog food and treats for your French Bulldog, you should pick brands that are complete with the nutrients vital for growth. Food and Water Bowls: Having decent food and water bowls will lessen the mess you need to clean when feeding your dog. There are arrays of food dishes you can choose from in online stores. Some even have food and water bowls in one set. Crate: A dog crate provides a safe and comfy space for your puppy when it wants to sleep or relax. Leashes and Collars: Leashes and collars are helpful for training and walking your dog in the park. Toys: Toys generally help dogs release their energy or stress. Grooming Essentials: A pet-safe shampoo and a pet brush are enough to keep your Frenchie puppy clean and fresh. Note that you should only use pet-safe shampoo for French Bulldogs to avoid skin allergies and irritation. Deworming, Flea, and Tick Medications: French Bulldogs are also susceptible to parasitism both internally and externally. To prevent this, flea and tick preemptive medication should be administered as well as deworming. Initial Vet Visits: Since some Frenchies suffer from brachycephalic syndrome , you will surely need to visit the vet more frequently during the first few months. Initial Vaccine Shots: French Bulldogs should receive complete sets of core vaccine shots to protect them against common canine diseases such as distemper, hepatitis, parainfluenza, parvovirus DHPP , and rabies. Dogs that are neutered or spayed have lower risks of acquiring reproductive-related illnesses. Dog License: Getting a license for your dog will help you find them in case they get lost since they are also given an ID tag. You can also let them run leash-free without worrying that they cannot be identified by whoever will find them. Microchip: Microchip works similar to a dog license but better. Instead of having a tag, a microchip is embedded in your dog so it can be scanned and identified easily. Microchipping is not invasive nor expensive. You might also see yourself spending on pet rentals, potty pads, and a lot more as your puppy grows. The table below shows a quick summary of the initial expenses and their price range: Type of Expense. However, that price can increase significantly, even into five figures, depending on the location and reputation of the breeder. Reproducing requires artificial insemination. These factors increase the investment for French bulldog breeders. The more investment a breeder makes into producing healthy high-quality dogs in good environments, the higher the price will be. The rarer the color is, such as blue, lilac or chocolate, the more you can expect to pay. Certain coat patterns, such as pied, merle or brindle, will also be more expensive. Female French bulldogs and those with blue eyes are pricier as well. Adopting through the French Bulldog Rescue Network is a more affordable way to acquire a new puppy or adult Frenchie. The French bulldog breed is exceptional with many rare characteristics that make them popular among dog owners. But there are also some challenges and things to watch out for. French Bulldog Size Fully grown French bulldogs average 12 inches tall. Adult females often weigh between 16 and 24 pounds, and males reach 20 to 24 pounds. Most French bulldogs will continue to gain weight until about 14 months old but stop gaining height between nine and 12 months. There are also mini Frenchies, also known as teacup French bulldogs. These are bred to be miniature versions of standard French bulldogs, weighing between five and 14 pounds. They typically shed in spring and fall, so you should increase coat brushing during that time to help reduce hair in your home. This can help you save on grooming costs. French Bulldog Appearance Along with breeds like English Bulldogs and pugs, French bulldogs are a brachycephalic breed, which means they have a shortened snout. Their faces are wrinkly and scrunched, giving them a distinct look, even as puppies. French Bulldog Colors French bulldogs come in many different coat colors. These include neutral colors — such as cream, gray, tan and black — as well as more rare colors like lilac, blue and chocolate. The rarer the color, the more expensive the price of a French bulldog will be. French Bulldog Temperament These pups are affectionate and playful, making them great companions. Training is recommended for French bulldogs since they can march to the beat of their own drum without guidance. Most Frenchies respond well to training, especially when treats are involved. Trainers believe French bulldogs understand commands but are moody and will respond as they feel like it. Frenchies are great family dogs, do well around other pets and prefer companionship. A companion will also allow you to leave them alone for longer periods of time without them getting frustrated. But, of course, another pet will come with its own costs. French Bulldog Activity Level Frenchies are not the best dog if you want a jogging companion. French Bulldog Life Expectancy French bulldogs have an average lifespan of 12 years if well taken care of. If they remain in great health, they can live as long as 15 years. Your veterinarian will periodically examine your Frenchie to ensure he or she is growing properly. Due to their flat faces and short necks, it can be difficult for French bulldogs to use standard feeding bowls. You can instead provide elevated dog food and water bowls to help your pet eat and drink more comfortably. Buying treats, toys or a comfortable dog bed can also help your Frenchie feel welcome in its new home. They were bred to be smaller versions of the larger bulldog and quickly became popular companions for Parisians living in small spaces. They have bat-like ears, can have a range of colors, and boast a short, smooth coat. They tend to weigh 28 pounds or less and are easily trainable. This is something to consider before bringing one into your home. The cost of a French bulldog varies based on where you buy it, as well as other unique factors about the dog. Purchasing a French bulldog from a breeder will typically cost more than adopting one from a shelter or rescue. How much does it cost to buy a French bulldog from a breeder? How much does it cost to adopt a French bulldog from a rescue? Sometimes, adopting a dog from a shelter or rescue organization is free. Why are French bulldogs so expensive? French bulldogs have long been one of the most popular dog breeds in the country. French bulldogs are also difficult to breed. They typically require artificial insemination and C-sections upon delivery. This can increase the cost for breeders, who pass those expenses onto the consumer via high prices. Factors that affect the price of a French bulldog Many factors can make a Frenchie — or any dog, for that matter — more expensive than the next. Some colors are very common, including white, cream, and black. Rare colors, like merle, blue, brindle, and lilac, are more unique and typically fetch a higher price. Gender: Female dogs usually cost more than males since they have the ability to produce future generations — and future income if you decide to sell any of her puppies. Bloodline and genetics: If a dog has parents or grandparents who've won shows, have other accolades, or were AKC-registered, this can increase their price. Dogs with health guarantees may also cost more. Breeder: The location and quality of a breeder — as well as the animals, methods, and facilities they use — can vary widely. You can expect a highly regarded, long-time breeder with a great reputation to charge more than someone with less experience breeding French bulldogs. Sometimes their price can be double that of a Frenchie in a common color like white or black. Boarding or pet sitting If you send your pup to doggie daycare, have them boarded while traveling, or hire a pet sitter, this will add to your ongoing costs. Ongoing classes may cost more than this, though. Pet insurance — if you decide to purchase it — may offset some of these costs, as well as other medical expenses. The American Kennel Club claims that Frenchies need coat grooming only once per month. What are some common French bulldog health problems? Hemivertebrae: Hemivertebrae can cause your dog to develop triangle-shaped vertebrae that can result in pain, weakness, and paralysis. Hip dysplasia: This is when the hip joint degenerates and no longer fits properly into the socket. It can often occur in Frenchies that are over-exercised. Patellar luxation: This condition occurs when the kneecap slips out of place. It can cause walking problems and arthritis. Your Frenchie may also develop issues outside of these breed-specific problems that may also need treatment. What is the best insurance plan for your Frenchie? Some pet insurance plans cover only accidents and injuries, while others include preventative care, dental care, vaccinations, and other services. Consider your lifestyle and what activities you plan to do with your Frenchie before selecting a plan. Additional coverages may cost more. Asking for referrals from friends, family members, or colleagues who have bought Frenchies is one place to start. This can help you gauge the conditions the dog will be born into and the genetic line they come from. You can also look out for the signs of a responsible dog breeder, as outlined by the Humane Society of the United States. Is a French bulldog the right dog breed for you? French bulldogs might be right for you if you can afford the potentially high initial investment and are willing to spend time playing and socializing with your pup, as they are affectionate, playful, and active animals. The American Kennel Club says this breed is good with young children, good with other dogs, and overall very trainable. French bulldog FAQs French bulldogs are a unique and popular breed.

This could indicate the dog is coming from a puppy mill. You can read why you should avoid buying dogs from puppy mills here. But the popularity of the dog means there can be a lot of competition for the Frenchies that do need a home. There are a lot of factors that can influence price, and if you are looking for a show dog or a dog for breeding, you should expect to pay a lot more. Certain colors, which are desirable but genetically quite rare, can also push up the price. A brindle or black puppy will usually be at the lower end of the scale, but a breeder might ask a lot more for a platinum or blue fawn puppy. This is Micro, a perfect body specimen for a Frenchie. He also has a blue coat and orange eyes, which are quite rare in dogs. What About Mini Frenchies? Mini Frenchies, also known as Teacup Frenchies, are the same fantastic dog, but they are quite a bit smaller than usual. You can expect them to weigh just 5 to 14 pounds on average. Due to their smaller size, though, their bodies can be fragile, so it is important not to engage in rough play with them. These dogs are even harder to breed see below than standard French bulldogs, so they are also quite a bit more expensive. Why are they so expensive, then? One factor is high demand since they are a very desirable dog breed. But that is not the whole story, since Labs are also one of the most popular dog breeds. Health Problems One of the biggest factors is these dogs have a lot of health problems. Most of their health issues are related to their flat, brachycephalic faces similar to Pugs and American bulldogs , which makes them particularly prone to breathing issues and allergies. This unique facial structure can also affect the formation of their jaw, and the health of their eyes, and can even affect their healing from certain illnesses and injuries. On top of this, they can also be prone to hip dysplasia, kneecap shifts, and heat stress. Fortunately, breeders try to control these breed-specific issues. It is essential that responsible breeders do their best to control these conditions, which means DNA scanning, genetic testing, multiple trips to the vet, and paying extra close attention to the developing puppies. Of course, all of this comes with a cost. Breeding Problems The other big problem is that Frenchies are extremely hard to breed. As well as the operation itself is expensive, the mother and pups need extra care afterward. Plus, breeders need to give their mother dogs significantly longer to recuperate before they can think about breeding them again. On top of that, French bulldogs have small litters—usually just three puppies. It is very unusual for a Frenchie to have five or more puppies in a single litter. So, if you are looking for a French bulldog puppy, you can expect to be on a waiting list for several months before a puppy is available. As well as being expensive to buy, French bulldogs can be pretty costly to care for, again mostly because of their health problems. They will probably need regular trips to the vet, and insuring them can be expensive because they are known to have health issues. But what are some of the main costs that you can expect to incur when bringing home a new puppy? Supplies It can surprise pet parents just how many things you need to care for a new dog. For starters, your new pup will need a bed, toys, bowls, a collar, and a leash. A crate can also be a big expense if you choose to crate train. However, because crate training is not so common among French bulldogs, first-time owners might also want to consider some professional training classes. Food Food is one of the biggest neverending expenses for any dog. Puppy food is also a bit more expensive than adult food because of its high protein content. Ideally, your dog should be eating puppy food until they are about 9 months old. French bulldogs should be eating around 25 to 30 calories per pound of their body weight each day. You can read more about pet insurance for puppies here. They will usually only bark when there is something wrong, so it is worth paying attention when they do vocalize. This is one of the reasons why they make excellent apartment dogs. While French bulldogs are adorable, they are specifically bred for their appearance, and this has led to a lot of genetic issues that affect their health and can leave them in a lot of pain in their later years. Many people object to putting the health of an animal second to appearance and therefore object to buying French bulldogs and supporting the purebred breeding industry. In theory, if there was no demand for these dogs, this kind of exploitative breeding would stop. In practice, this is difficult to imagine, considering how popular the breed is. Can French bulldogs stay home alone? French bulldogs actually tolerate being left alone relatively well. However, all dogs need a lot of love and companionship, and no dog responds well to being left on their own for 10 hours a day five days a week. Dogs become members of the family, and if they are going to thrive, they need to be treated with that kind of attention. Are Frenchies hard to potty train? However, they are little dogs with small bladders. They also tend to gobble down their food, which means they can be prone to smelly gas expulsions. How much exercise does my Frenchie need? French bulldogs do well on just a 15 to minute vigorous walk each day. They are also quite playful, so they burn off energy just playing around as well. Are French bulldogs aggressive? Despite the reputation of bulldogs, Frenchies are not aggressive. They are friendly and get on well with people and other animals. However, all animals are a combination of nature and nurture, so they can learn aggressive habits if they are not properly cared for. Are Frenchies high maintenance? They can also be left alone without expecting too much trouble. On the other hand, their tendency towards breed-specific health issues does mean they need regular visits to the vet. They may need special medications for things like breathing issues, and in later life, they may need things like a special bed. The Verdict French bulldogs are excellent dogs. They are great little companions who will find it easy to live in your apartment with you, but they are also fun-loving and curious. While they are great dogs, they are also quite expensive. This is due to high demand and some pretty serious difficulties when it comes to breeding them. They have small litters, almost always delivered by c-section, and health screenings and vet visits are a big burden for breeders. If you want something special, such as a rare color, you should expect to pay a lot more. You can also expect them to be relatively expensive dogs to own because they do need regular and close contact with a good vet to maintain their health. At a glance, the French bulldog is: Highly intelligent and trainable Small, meaning it does well in fairly small apartments Expensive due to demand and how difficult they are to breed Prone to breed-specific health issues So, are they worth all this expense and trouble? We think they are. French bulldogs can be the ideal pet for first-time owners with limited space and time but a lot of love to give. Helps ease anxiety in their new home. We love using Bully Sticks to help divert these unwanted behaviors. Check out more of our favorites on our New Puppy Checklist.

Jean-Francois: How much is a purebred German Shepherd puppy without papers worth? I'm guessing it's a rip-off. Our nonpaper German shepherd just had 12, her 1st litter of no papers German shepherd pups. You can visually see the traits. I do suggest making sure vaccinations are given before buying the puppy. Answer by JTP Actually, that is a great price! I would even say that's pretty cheap, especially since it's a German Shepherd. Answer by SuperGirl It doesn't matter if the parents have papers. Parents with papers should have puppies that have papers as well. I'm also guessing mom and dad don't really have papers either, because papers come to puppies with papered parents. Answer by Kayleigh Let me explain what happened to us. I was young at the time and didn't realize what "limited" rights were. This means the woman who sold me my puppy would not give me the right to register my purebred GSD as a purebred GSD unless I got her spayed. We bought her with the intention of eventually breeding and keeping some puppies for ourselves but also selling a few. I would be breeding my dog with a purebred GSD who is registered, but since I cannot register my dog due to this lady's way of giving me limited rights I would not be able to register the pups either. She is our rescue dog. I got a blood test done that shows she is a purebred German Shepherd, but there is no way of knowing whether she was registered or not. We are going to breed her with one of my friend's purebred German Shepherd males. I was thinking of selling the puppies for around , which is about 1, dollars cheaper than what they are selling registered puppies for in this area. Answer by Lizzie A breeder must have two registered dogs to be able to register their litter as a group. Then, each puppy buyer is given a paper the registration application form to fill out and send money with, to register the puppy as an individual dog that belongs to that person. Other papers you may get with a dog are a pedigree, a copy of the contract from the breeder, basic care guidelines, etc. If they did register the dog, they need to sign the form so that ownership can be transferred to you. You can apply for and get an Indefinite Listing Privilege number, or ILP number for short, which will allow you to compete in obedience, rally, flyball, freestyle and more, through the AKC. Answer by leslie You have to get the papers from him or the mom's litter registration number at least. You can not get a blood test done to get papers. Papers are a dog's family tree. The dog had to have been registered by the original breeder both as a litter and individual. Most likely the dog really was not registered by the previous owners or the breeder. Have them write to the American Kennel Club for a copy. Blood tests are no proof. When you complete your portion and submit it with the proper fee, this form will enable you to register the dog. Do not accept a promise of later identification. Chances are your dog was never registered in the first place. However, if you want to be able to enter your dog in performance events obedience, agility, etc. There is no reliable DNA test to prove a breed. Answer by mauveme49 Blood tests are not proof of purebred. The application has to be notarized in order to get them. They will go to the old owner who then can sign them over to you. All supposing that the old owners actually had papers and are not selling you a line. The original owner lost the papers on my CKC Canadian std poodle. That is what I did to get the papers for her. But if you have no interest in breeding him or showing him. They are only needed if you plan on selling the dog or you are purchasing a show puppy. He probably did not have any, to begin with. What if you find out he isn't a purebred? Screw the papers! Take care of your dog. I feel bad for him. Here you are doing everything in your power to prove that he's a purebred and if he isn't your going to just throw him away like last year's Prada bag. Grow up. Know better? Give your own answer to this question! See other posts in german shepherd , papers , Purebred Reader Interactions. However, here in the U. When it comes to determining health, temperament, conformation, and working ability, these papers can mean diddly squat. What about the pedigree? The pedigree shows that this dog, its parents, and its grandparents all were registered with the large breed organization as purebreds—which is important if you are seeking a dog that is of a particular breed. The pedigree is intended to serve as a record of the ancestors behind your dog, but it is only as good as the genetic heritage passed on through each generation. As we have seen, simply being registered with a breed organization as a purebred says nothing about the genetic quality, temperament, and health of the dogs in that pedigree. A pedigree can be used to trace the inheritance of certain traits, whether it be coat color, good or bad hips and elbows, health issues, and to a certain extent temperament and working ability if the parents have been titled and proven in working ability, these titles should be recorded on the pedigree, unless they are titles earned in Europe or under another organization not associated with the AKC. But if the puppy has generations of untitled, untested dogs lacking health clearances, then what are you really getting? But the two parents are not required to have any health checks, temperament tests, working titles, conformation titles, or ANYTHING before they can be bred and their offspring can be registered. This means two dogs with poor temperaments, hip dysplasia, and a host of health problems can still be bred and have their puppies registered and sold as purebreds. Sadly, it is no indication of quality. This myth is just that—a myth! What determines the quality of the dog is the dogs behind it and the traits they possessed. Quality must be bred for. Temperament, health, working ability, and conformation must be selectively bred for. About the Author.

The first example of this type of dog, called Sultan, went to live with a lady in Hawaii, where other breeders saw him as an inspiration and this is how Australian Labradoodle puppies started.

James signed to Warp in and subsequently released charting albums such as.James Album , as well as Top 40 singles such as " Come to Daddy " and " Windowlicker " ; the latter two were accompanied by music videos directed by Chris Cunningham and brought James significantly wider international attention. After releasing Drukqs in and completing his contract with Warp, James spent several years releasing music on his own Rephlex label, including the Analord EP series under his AFX alias and a pair of releases as the Tuss. In , he made available a previously unreleased LP as Caustic Window. He has since released charting EPs including Cheetah and Collapse .Early life[ edit ] James grew up in Cornwall pictured: Cornwall's Chapel Porth, seen on the cover and referenced in the liner notes of James's album Surfing on Sine Waves. I think some of the other students were a bit in awe of him. The tight-knit community would also put on nights at small clubs in towns around the county, including St. Ives , Porthtowan , and St Austell. James would later refer to this scene as the "best he's ever been involved in". Darby later said: "I think if he had not done that trip that night there may have never been any Aphex Twin. I was tripping and they're waving this money and a pen at me. He and James founded Rephlex Records in .James visited him in Belgium, bringing with him a box full of cassettes of his music. From these cassettes they picked out tracks for two records, including James's first album Selected Ambient Works .Although he moved to London to take an electronics course at Kingston Polytechnic , he admitted to David Toop that his electronics studies were slipping away as he pursued a career in electronic music. John Bush of Allmusic would later describe the release as a watershed moment in ambient music. James was part of several tours in .It reached number 11 in the UK charts, [64] but was not particularly well received critically; critic Simon Reynolds later noted that "many in the Aphex cult were thrown for a loop" and that "Aphex aficionados remain divided". James Album and Come to Daddy[ edit ] Main articles.I Care Because You Do , [66] composed between and in a range of styles, James used an image of his face for the cover, which became a motif on his later releases. He commissioned Western classical-music composer Philip Glass to create an orchestral version of the.It features software synthesisers and unconventional rhythms. Will Hermes of Spin discussed James's use of jungle elements, writing that "by applying junglist strategies to his own obsessive sound creation - his gorgeous weirdo palette of modernist strings, whirring crib toys, and agitated machines - he remakes drum'n'bass in his own image". James Album demonstrated "aggressive combinations of disparate electronic forms", with an "almost-brutal contrast between its elements" that has ensured its relevance. Accompanied with a successful music video directed by Chris Cunningham , James became disenchanted by its success: "This little idea that I had, which was a joke, turned into something huge. It wasn't right at all. It features the piano composition " Avril 14th ", which remains perhaps James's best known work. James told interviewers he had accidentally left an MP3 player with new tracks on a plane, and had rushed the album release to preempt an internet leak. It also had an untitled third track, consisting of a SSTV image with high-pitched sounds which can be decoded to a viewable image with appropriate software. These were followed in by a compilation album of Analord tracks, Chosen Lords. Media sources speculated about James's involvement, but his identity was not confirmed until .Each of them except for Analord 10 had bonus tracks, totalling 81 minutes of new music between them all. Richard later disbanded Rephlex Records, removing the website entirely. In James said he had completed six new albums, including a new version of the unreleased Melodies from Mars. In , a test pressing of a album recorded under James's pseudonym Caustic Window appeared for sale on Discogs. The album was once intended for sale on James's label Rephlex, but went unreleased. With the consent of James and Rephlex, fans organised a Kickstarter campaign to purchase the record and distribute copies. It was marketed by a teaser campaign including graffiti, a blimp flown over London, and an announcement made via a. The tracks were later removed. An untitled inch vinyl was sold exclusively at the festival, containing two minute tracks. It was made available online instead, and the video for "T69 Collapse" was uploaded to YouTube. Its title alluded to 19 August , the same day that the Field Day festival takes place on in London, teasing a possible performance. That's my favorite way to do it. It's more like a pure form of motivation when it's all on your own. But you have to wait until you're really bored and you've got nothing to do. That's when it comes out. That's when I reckon it gets good. The term spread to the United States and internet message boards. James responded to the IDM term in a interview: I just think it's really funny to have terms like that. It's basically saying, "this is intelligent and everything else is stupid. I don't use names. I just say that I like something or I don't. Image and pseudonyms[ edit ] James's face, grinning or distorted, is a theme of his album covers, music videos and songs. James said it began as a response to techno producers who concealed their identities: I did it because the thing in techno you weren't supposed to do was to be recognised and stuff. The sort of unwritten rule was that you can't put your face on the sleeve. It has to be like a circuit board or something. Therefore I put my face on the sleeve. That's why I originally did it. But then I got carried away. The cover of.James Album has a close-up photograph. His face is superimposed on the bodies of other people in the music videos for " Come to Daddy " and " Windowlicker ". Near the end of the second track of the "Windowlicker" single known as "Formula" , a photo of James's face is a steganogram which is revealed as a spectrogram. P and user.It's just things that I feel right in doing at the time and I really don't know why. I select songs for certain [names] and I just do it. I don't know what it means. I get credited for so many things, it's incredible. I'm practically everyone, I reckon—everyone and nobody. Bangalter said he liked it because "It wasn't a big club beat, but it also wasn't a laid back, quiet one". James influenced Radiohead 's transition to electronic music for their album Kid A. Aphex opened up another world that didn't involve my fucking electric guitar.I hated the Britpop thing and what was happening in America, but Aphex was totally beautiful, and he's kind of my age too. I just managed to escape and blag it into music. The 30th Disney animated feature film and the third released during the Disney Renaissance period, it is based on the fairy tale of the same name by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont who was only credited in the French dub , [6] while also containing ideas from the French film of the same name directed by Jean Cocteau. Beauty and the Beast focuses on the relationship between the Beast voice of Robby Benson , [8] a prince who is magically transformed into a monster and his servants into household objects as punishment for his arrogance, and Belle voice of Paige O'Hara , [8] a young woman whom he imprisons in his castle in exchange for her father's freedom. To break the curse, the Beast must learn to love Belle and earn her love in return before the last petal falls from an enchanted rose or else he will remain a monster forever. Following the success of The Little Mermaid , Walt Disney Pictures decided to adapt the fairy tale, which Richard Purdum originally conceived as a non-musical period drama. After seeing a test reel, Disney chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg scrapped Purdum's idea and ordered that the film be a musical similar to The Little Mermaid instead. Ashman, who additionally served as the film's executive producer, died of AIDS -related complications six months before the film's release, and the film is thus dedicated to his memory. Beauty and the Beast premiered as an unfinished film at the New York Film Festival on September 29, , followed by its theatrical release as a completed film at the El Capitan Theatre on November .In April , Beauty and the Beast became Disney's first animated film to be adapted into a Broadway musical , which ran until .An IMAX version of the film was released in and included the new song " Human Again ", originally an eight-minute storyboarded musical sequence ultimately replaced with " Something There ", but later revised in the musical as a five-minute piece. That same year, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". Plot[ edit ] An enchantress disguised as a beggar woman visits a castle and offers an enchanted rose to a cruel and selfish prince in exchange for shelter from a storm. When he refuses, she reveals her identity and transforms the prince into a beast and his servants into household objects. She warns the prince that the spell will only be broken if he learns to love another and be loved in return before the last petal falls, or he will remain a beast forever. Several years later, in a nearby village, Belle, the book-loving daughter of an eccentric inventor named Maurice, dreams of adventure. She frequently tries avoiding Gaston, a narcissistic hunter who wants to marry her because of her beauty. En route to a fair to showcase his latest invention, an automatic wood chopper, Maurice gets lost in the forest and seeks refuge in the Beast's castle; There, the Beast finds Maurice and imprisons him for trespassing. When Maurice's horse returns alone, Belle ventures out searching for her father, finding him locked in the castle dungeon. Belle agrees to take Maurice's place as the Beast's prisoner in exchange for her father's freedom. Potts the teapot, and her son Chip, the teacup; they serve her a dinner through song. When she wanders into the forbidden west wing and finds the rose, the Beast catches her and angrily forces her to flee the castle. In the woods, she is ambushed by a pack of wolves, but the Beast rescues her, and is injured in the process. As Belle nurses his injuries, a rapport develops between them and as time passes, they begin to fall in love. Meanwhile, Maurice returns to the village and fails to convince the townsfolk of Belle's predicament. Hearing Maurice's statements about the Beast, Gaston hatches a plan: He bribes Monsieur D'Arque, the warden of the town's insane asylum , to have Maurice locked up as a lunatic. Gaston will use this to force Belle into marrying him in exchange for Maurice's release. Before they can act, however, Maurice leaves for the castle to attempt a rescue alone. After sharing a romantic dance with the Beast, Belle uses the Beast's magic mirror to check on her father and sees him collapsing in the woods. The Beast releases her to save Maurice, giving her the mirror as a memento. After Belle takes her father to the village, a band of villagers led by Gaston arrives to detain Maurice. Belle uses the mirror to show the Beast to the townsfolk, proving her father's sanity. Realizing that Belle loves the Beast, a jealous Gaston locks Belle and her father in the cellar, and rallies the villagers to help him slay the Beast. Chip, who arrived at their house as a stowaway, activates Maurice's wood-chopping machine, freeing Maurice and Belle from the cellar. When the villagers arrive at the castle, the Beast's servants fend them off. Meanwhile, Gaston attacks the Beast, who is too depressed from Belle's departure to fight back but regains his spirit upon seeing Belle return. He defeats Gaston but spares his life before reuniting with Belle. However, Gaston fatally wounds the Beast before losing his footing and falling to his death. Belle tearfully professes her love to the Beast, and the spell is undone, reviving the Beast and restoring his human form along with his servants and castle. The Prince and Belle host a ball for the kingdom, where they dance happily. Main article: List of Disney's Beauty and the Beast characters Paige O'Hara as Belle , [14] a bibliophilic young woman who seeks adventure and offers her own freedom to the Beast in return for her father's. In an effort to "enhance" the character from the original story, the filmmakers felt that Belle should be "unaware" of her own beauty and made her "a little odd". Robby Benson as the Beast , [14] a young prince who is transformed into a talking beast by an enchantress as punishment for his arrogance and selfishness. The animators drew him with the head structure and horns of an American bison , the arms and body of a bear, the eyebrows of a gorilla, the teeth and mane of a lion, the tusks of a wild boar , and the legs and tail of a wolf. Chris Sanders , one of the film's storyboard artists and visual development artists, drafted the designs for the Beast and came up with designs based on birds, insects, and fish before coming up with something close to the final design. Glen Keane , supervising animator for the Beast, refined the design by going to the zoo and studying the animals on which the Beast was based. He serves as a foil personality to the Beast, who was once as egotistical as Gaston prior to his transformation. Gaston's supervising animator, Andreas Deja , was pressed by Jeffrey Katzenberg to make Gaston handsome in contrast to the traditional appearance of a Disney villain, an assignment he found difficult at first. In the beginning, Gaston is depicted as more of a narcissist than a villain, but later he threatens to put Maurice in a mental institution if Belle does not marry him, and eventually leads all the villagers to kill the Beast, enraged that Belle would love a beast more than him. He has a habit of disobeying his master's strict rules, sometimes causing tension between them, but the Beast often turns to him for advice. He is depicted as flirtatious, as he is frequently seen with the Featherduster and immediately takes a liking to Belle. Will Finn served as the supervising animator for Cogsworth. Stiers also narrates the prologue. Angela Lansbury as Mrs. Potts, [21] the castle cook, turned into a teapot, who takes a motherly attitude toward Belle. The filmmakers went through several names for Mrs. Potts, such as "Mrs. Chamomile", before Ashman suggested the use of simple and concise names for the household objects. Bradley Pierce as Chip, [22] Mrs. Potts's son, who has been transformed into a teacup. Originally intended to only have one line, the filmmakers were impressed with Pierce's performance and expanded the character's role significantly, eschewing a mute Music Box character. Rex Everhart as Maurice, [14] Belle's inventor father. The villagers see him as insane for crafting devices believed impossible to construct in reality, but his loyal daughter believes he will be famous one day. Ruben A. Aquino served as the supervising animator for Maurice. Jesse Corti as LeFou, [14] Gaston's often abused yet loyal and bumbling sidekick. He looks up to Gaston as his hero, and sings a song with the other villagers to cheer him up. Chris Wahl served as the supervising animator for LeFou. Jo Anne Worley as the Wardrobe, [23] the castle's authority over fashion, and a former opera singer, who has been turned into a wardrobe. The character of Wardrobe was introduced by visual development artist Sue C. Nichols to the then entirely male cast of servants, and was originally a more integral character named "Madame Armoire". Wardrobe is known as "Madame de la Grande Bouche" Madame Big Mouth in the stage adaptation of the film and is the only major enchanted object character whose human form does not appear in the film. Tony Anselmo served as the supervising animator for the Wardrobe. Hal Smith as Philippe, [24] Belle's horse. Russ Edmonds served as the supervising animator for Philippe. Brian Cummings as the Stove, [27] the castle's chef who has been transformed into a stove. Alvin Epstein as the Bookseller, [28] the owner of a book shop in Belle's village. Gaston bribes him to help in his plan to blackmail Belle. Alec Murphy as the Baker, [30] the owner of a bakery in Belle's village. She is never mentioned by name in the film listed as Featherduster in the credits ; Babette is the name given to this character later in the stage adaptation of the film; Fifi in the animated musical film Belle's Magical World and Plumette in the live-action remake. Frank Welker as Sultan, [32] the castle's pet dog turned into a footstool. Early versions[ edit ] After the success of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in , Walt Disney sought out other stories to adapt into feature films, with Beauty and the Beast being among the stories he considered. Nichols states Disney may later have been discouraged by Jean Cocteau having already done his version. Richard Williams , who had directed the animated portions of Roger Rabbit, was approached to direct but declined in favor of continuing work on his long-gestating project The Thief and the Cobbler. In his place, Williams recommended his colleague, English animation director Richard Purdum, and work began under producer Don Hahn on a non-musical version of Beauty and the Beast set in 19th-century France. This was an unusual move for an animated film, which is traditionally developed on storyboards rather than in a scripted form. Linda Woolverton wrote the original draft of the story before storyboarding began, and worked with the story team to retool and develop the film. Upon seeing the initial storyboard reels in , Walt Disney Studios chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg was dissatisfied with Purdum's idea and ordered that the film be scrapped and started over from scratch. A few months after starting anew, Purdum resigned as director. The studio had approached John Musker and Ron Clements to direct the film, but they turned down the offer, saying they were "tired" after just having finished directing Disney's recent success The Little Mermaid. Katzenberg then hired first-time feature directors Kirk Wise and Gary Trousdale. In addition, wanting another musical film, Katzenberg asked songwriters Howard Ashman and Alan Menken , who had written the song score for The Little Mermaid, to turn Beauty and the Beast into a Broadway-style musical film in the same vein as Mermaid. Ashman, who at the time had learned he was dying of complications from AIDS, had been working with Disney on a pet project of his, Aladdin , and only reluctantly agreed to join the struggling production team. By early , Katzenberg had approved the revised script, and storyboarding began again. Potts, but the role was eventually given to Angela Lansbury. The background was animated using computer generated imagery which, when the traditionally animated characters are composited against it using Pixar's CAPS system, gives the illusion of a dollying film camera. Production of Beauty and the Beast was to be completed on a compressed timeline of two years rather than the traditional four-year Disney Feature Animation production schedule; this was due to the loss of production time spent developing the earlier Purdum version of the film. According to Trousdale, this was done because production of the film was nearing the deadline, and this was the easiest way to do that sequence. Other songs included " Be Our Guest ", sung in its original version to Maurice by the objects when he becomes the first visitor to eat at the castle in a decade, " Gaston ", a solo for the swaggering villain and his bumbling sidekick, "Human Again", a song describing Belle and Beast's growing love from the objects' perspective, the love ballad " Beauty and the Beast Tale as Old as Time " and the climactic " The Mob Song ". As story and song development came to a close, full production began in Burbank while voice and song recording began in New York City. After screening a mostly animated version of the "Be Our Guest" sequence, story artist Bruce Woodside suggested that the objects should be singing the song to Belle rather than her father. Wise and Trousdale agreed, and the sequence and song were retooled to replace Maurice with Belle. The film's title song went through a noted bit of uncertainty during production. Originally conceived as a rock-oriented song, it was changed to a slow, romantic ballad. Howard Ashman and Alan Menken asked Angela Lansbury to perform the song, but she did not think her voice was suited for the melody. When she voiced her doubts, Menken and Ashman asked her for at least one take and told her to perform the song as she saw fit. Lansbury reportedly reduced everyone in the studio to tears with her rendition, nailing the song in the one take asked of her. This version went on to win the Oscar for Best Original Song. He never saw the finished film, though he did get to see it in its unfinished format. Ashman's work on Aladdin was completed by another lyricist, Tim Rice. Before Ashman's death, members of the film's production team visited him after the film's well-received first screening, with Don Hahn commenting that "the film would be a great success. Who'd have thought it? A tribute to the lyricist was included at the end of the credits crawl: "To our friend, Howard, who gave a mermaid her voice, and a beast his soul. We will be forever grateful. Howard Ashman: —.The song became Dion's second single to land within the top of the Billboard Hot , peaking at number nine. The song peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary chart. In Canada, "Beauty and the Beast" peaked at number two. The song sold over a million copies worldwide. At the end of the screening, Beauty and the Beast received a ten-minute-long standing ovation from the film festival audience. Re-issues[ edit ] The film was restored and remastered for its New Year's Day, re-release in IMAX theatres in a special-edition edit, including a new musical sequence. For this version of the film, much of the animation was cleaned up, a new sequence set to the deleted song "Human Again" was inserted into the film's second act, and a new digital master from the original CAPS production files was used to make the high-resolution IMAX film negative. Prior to the showing, Sparks showed an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the newly restored film and the making of her new Beauty and the Beast music video. There was also commentary from producer Hahn, interviews with the cast and an inside look at how the animation was created. This measure was to diminish the threat of video pirates making copies derived from the LaserDisc which are not copy-protected and selling them in international markets, where the film was yet to be available for home release. The film was released from the vault on October 5, , as the second of Disney's Diamond Editions, in the form of a three-disc Blu-ray Disc and DVD combination pack [77] —the first release of Beauty and the Beast on home video in high-definition format. The 3D combo pack is identical to the original Diamond Edition, except for the added 3D disc and digital copy. The Blu-ray release went into the Disney Vault along with the two sequels on April 30, .The website's critical consensus reads, "Enchanting, sweepingly romantic, and featuring plenty of wonderful musical numbers, Beauty and the Beast is one of Disney's most elegant animated offerings. Disney truly bridged a generation gap with The Little Mermaid.Now, lightning has definitely struck twice with Beauty and the Beast. But the film has little of the technical facility, vivid characterization and emotional impact of Disney past. Michael Sragow of The New Yorker gave the film a positive review, saying "It's got storytelling vigor and clarity, bright, eclectic animation, and a frisky musical wit. I think it should have won [Best Picture].I think the animation on the beast is one of the greatest pieces of animation I've seen". Whitley also notes other themes and modern influences, such as the film's critical view of Gaston's chauvinism and attitude towards nature, the cyborg-like servants, and the father's role as an inventor rather than a merchant. Michael Phillips of the Chicago Tribune stated that the film "worked wonderfully because it was pure Broadway, written for the screen, blending comedy and romance and magic and just enough snark in the margins", while the remake got lost in translation since "The movie takes our knowledge and our interest in the material for granted. It zips from one number to another, throwing a ton of frenetically edited eye candy at the screen, charmlessly.

Very sturdy. Love it. Indestructible, he loved it. Got a new one this year for something different. My favorite character is Yoshi. I'm so excited I bought this product. Our son loved his Mario box. Perfect for his desk. He is in 1st grade and had room for all his supplies! Still, I recommend it. The school doesn't provide them anywhere to keep things safe and a few kids in his class steal with little fear of punishment. I bought this with a number code so he can store valuables safely so far it can fit in 2 decks of Pokemon and he can lock them away. Only change I would make is a smaller case this one takes up alot of space in his back pack maybe deck of cards size with the same lock would be prefect. I know people playing Magic the gathering as i did as a kid or any collectable card game would welcome it. In saying that I was after another for my insulin pens and was waiting for the delivery. From the USA about 8 days so was surprised. Awesome piece of kit, buy one, yes it does not have a handle but fits all of your gubbins nicely and saves you about .Pockets to put your needles for testing, pocket for putting your insulin needles and there are holders for your insulin pens too. Just like the handle one, comes delivered from the USA and no handles, for the price a bargain. This fits the bill perfectly and keeps meds securely locked away from my children. It's lightweight, so adds minimal weight to what I need to carry, and about the size of a thick book. So not too bulky. And I don't have to worry about my sons getting into my meds anymore!! Not it's intended purpose I know but this fits my Korg Volca Modular synthesizer perfectly, and the net inside the lid is great for storing the patch cables! Delivery was also much quicker than expected, from the US. It does the job, but having a handle would make it easier for transportation between school and home. Vaultz Small Lock Box for Kids - 8.
