The Anatolian Shepherd Dog is a native of Turkey, where he was developed as a shepherd's companion and livestock guardian. He was bred to resemble the size and color of the livestock he defended so predators would not detect him among the flock. Sometimes called the Anatolian Karabash Dog, he's a fiercely loyal guard dog and a large, impressive breed, weighing 120 to 150 pounds at maturity.
