The Tracker was of Asiatic Russian origin. It was used for hundreds of years to protect and herd the flocks of the Indo-Aryan people in the wind-beaten, snow-swept Caucasus Mountains. The Tracker was a large dog, sometimes standing as high as {{convert|30|in|cm}} at the shoulder and weighing {{convert|100|lb|kg}} or more. Despite its seemingly cumbersome proportions, it was fast and flexible enough to chase off wolves and other such predators that threatened its sheep. It wore a thick, taffy colored double-coat that protected it from both the harsh weather and the savage wildlife. Aside from its physical prowess, this mountain dog also had exceptional intellect. It was so wise and capable (legend says) that it could keep itself and its flock alive and well for months on end with no human help.{{Citation needed|date=January 2015}} The breed is related to on some level, and may be synonymous with, the Yellow Russian Retriever, which measured {{convert|28|in|cm}} and {{convert|90|lb|kg}}.[3][4][4] {{efn-ua|One source takes issue with Mason's inclusion of the breed in his work, and essentially suggests that the facts were mischaracterized or distorted. He claims that Russian mountain dogs are not part of the lineage of Golden Retrievers, although Russian circus dogs might have been. [4] Another source flatly states that the Russian circus dog/Golden Retriever connection is a "myth." [4]}} That breed was reputed to be used for tracking wounded deer.[3] The Tracker's closest surviving descendent is the Golden Retriever;[1][5] however, the Flat-coated Retriever and a few of the Setters are also believed to carry Tracker blood.[3][6][7][8] BibliographyFootnotes1. ^1 {{cite journal |url=http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/237757/golden-retriever |title=golden retriever |work=Encyclopædia Britannica, Encyclopædia Britannica Online |publisher=Encyclopædia Britannica Inc |year=2012 |accessdate=11 October 2012}} 2. ^{{cite journal |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1146319/index.htm |date=February 14, 1955 |title=This Chart Shows The Family Tree Of 119 Different Breeds Of Dogs |first1=Reginald |last1=Wells |work=Sports Illustrated |volume=2 |issue=7|accessdate=October 13, 2012}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite book |url=https://archive.org/details/dogsofallnations00masorich |first1=Walter Esplin (1867- ) |last1=Mason |title=Dogs of All Nations |year=1915 |page=88 |accessdate=October 10, 2012}} at Internet Archive 4. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.k9web.com/dog-faqs/breeds/goldens.html |title=Golden Retrievers: History |publisher=K9web.com |accessdate=October 13, 2012}} 5. ^But see {{cite journal |url=http://www.grca.org/history_breed/origin.html |title=Origin of the Yellow Retriever |first1=Walter Angelo, The Earl of Ilchester |last1=Fox-Strangways |authorlink=Earl of Ilchester|work=Country Life Magazine (England) |date=July 25, 1952 |publisher=Golden Retriever Cub of America |accessdate=October 13, 2012}} 6. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.retrieverman.wordpress.com/2010/05/01/russian-yellow-retriever/ |title=Yellow Retriever |work=The Retriever, Dog, & Wildlife Blog |author=retrieverman |date=May 1, 2010 |accessdate=October 10, 2012}} 7. ^{{cite book |title=Care and Training of Dogs |publisher=Pocket Books |year=1950 |first1=Arthur Frederick |last1=Jones |authorlink=Arthur Frederick Jones}} 8. ^{{cite book |title=The Treasury of Dogs |first1=Arthur Frederick |last1=Jones |last2=Rendel |first2=John Jones |first3=Walter, Photographs |last3=Chandoha |year=1964}} References{{Reflist|30em}}Further reading
