what is a Caucasian shepherd and what you need to know.
My experience with a Caucasian shepherd.

[@Vinnie-cv5qv]

My grandfather had 6 to 8 of the Caucasian Ovcharka dogs to tend his herd of 400 sheep in the Romanian countryside. These dogs were bred over generations in the family. In the late 1800s my ancestors got them from Georgia (the country) and just bred them and introduced new dogs to prevent inbreeding. They are great working dogs. My grandfather loved them and would groom them. He and close family members were the only ones allowed to be near them. They were like family pets but they did kill wolves when protecting the sheep. No one should have this breed in the city or if they do not know how to handle a breed like this one. My grandfather has passed away and now my uncle has taken over the cheese and wool business. He also breeds the dogs and has loyal customers from Australian and New Zealand paying top euros for puppies. All the dogs he has have excellent genes and hip problems do not exist in his dogs. Your dog is gorgeous. I wonder if you found a brave groomer to take care of his double cout and nails. My grandfather and now my uncle are the only ones that could groom those dogs.With so many dogs, they would spend and hour each day and kept the dogs looking "pretty" as my grandfather would say.

Generally, I encourage people to have real experience with dogs of this nature. These dogs are powerful. And if they see a threat, they will let you know. If they attack, they are hard to let go of a threat.

[@annwatson6125]

great video - I have one - got it from Romania - I adore him...he's my constant companion - but I live in a fully fenced 1 acre yard and I take him for walks - never off-leash - he's not trustworthy AT ALL - will take off as soon as you take the leash off and he's not road smart But I adore him and don't know how to ever replace him - because I can't afford to do that again - just not enough money - He's the best dog I ever had.

I fell in love with this breed when my friend got one ten years ago honestly you have never been round a big dog until you meet one of these I have a 3yr old male I got from pup he’s a big softy he scares people because of his size and loud bark if you knock at the door but apart from that he’s chill which we are lucky for early socialisation is a MUST if you want one as a pet they are no joke if you think you’ll have a really obedient dog 😂 yeah they do sit n stay sometimes but they are very strong willed and independent bring them up with the family not in your garden as you would have already failed

[@user-xt8km1dh4q]

Great video and really useful first hand information. Thanks 🙏🏻

[@TheNinnyfee]

Thank you for being open and honest about your beautiful Max. Note the fur. Max's dog family was created for a colder mountain region, they aren't really made for warm climates. Shepherd dogs like him or a Turkish Kangal are smart, self-reliant herd dogs that guard entire herds by themselves. Sometimes for days, they don't have to respect you if you haven't done your homework about them. They even fight wild animals like wolves.

[@signalfire6691]

That animal needs to be brushed and groomed DAILY in order to prevent the coat load getting too heavy and matted. This animal is not being taken enough care of, and I feel sorry and in fear for the neighbors.

[@soal3415]

Signalfire6691 We are so lucky to have you. What would those working dogs out in the mountains do with out you?

[@eroccha]

@@signalfire6691 Lol. Daily? Wrong goofy. You groom a double-coated dog at least four times a year to help pull out the dead undercoat. What remains of the undercoat after a seasonal coat blow helps to hold cool air close to the skin and the double layers protect against sunburn. Nature knows best.

[@TheHemiphil81]

I owned a beautiful wolf hybrid. He was 90% timber wolf and 10% Alaskan malamute. He weighed about 170 pounds. We took him to obedience school and after 2 weeks they told us not to bring him back lol. He was a big ole baby. We lost him from cancer when he was 10 years old and we are still heart broken. I know some dogs are hard to train but worth having.

They never bitten anybody and broke the skin, but they’ll grab them and drag them away. But they are a handful. You have to be special person to have one.

[@ASMRkiddo]

Nice video thanks for your realistic review of this breed. We had a similar breed of dog a few years ago- the Sarplaninac. Similar looks, size, behaviour and also a livestock guardian. Like you, we were living in a city with a garden, but she was very difficult and not like any other dog we've had in my lifetime. As you say "stubborn" and independent. She ended up having to live with a relative in the countryside as her huge bark at night was disturbing our neighbours in an urban setting. Like you say at 2 years old, she became particularly difficult. Even for an experienced dog owner, these breeds are challenging, especially if they are not working and they can be a bit like having a loaded gun when you're having guests, or out walking them! Generally I would advise against them as house pets. Other livestock guardian breeds like the Pyrenees and Maremma are slightly more domesticated as breeds. Best wishes and you have a nice gang of pets there.

[@pavlepetrovic6846]

Thank you. Good to know!

[@vampire4000]

We have 6 dogs here, 2 Chihuahuas, 3 Shih Tzus and an Ovcharca........ They all live here in our house. The other day little Chi was sick, the Ovcharca did not leave her side! His best friend is Gizmo, our Shih Tzu, when she is scared (eg with fireworks or other dogs while walking) he lies down and she climbs on top of him for support! They can take the food out of his mouth, he will do anything for the little ones! He will not growl at children, we live opposite a school and when we go for a walk they always ask me if they can pet him. He prefers them to hang around his neck! But, if someone touches the little ones or us, he won't let brands do it. He stands "tight" and puts a paw on the other dog's back, the other dog goes through, shows his teeth. The whole neighborhood loves our big friendly giant Lupi!

Good info, peace friend.

[@creativekatt]

We had one back home when I was a kid. He was very territorial, and all dogs in the area were afraid of him. If a pack comes up one bark from our dog and maybe one would be left. That one leaves too after a pause. 😂 he was a friend with a dog in his puppy days, sadly around 2 years old, he went for that dog’s throat ( that’s how they kill threats fast… wolves, bears…)… needless to say it died. Our dog was all to him self. Very rarely barked though. As big as he was he would creep up quietly on a stranger… usually get on his back paws and place his front paws on strangers shoulders (be closer to the neck). You are right. They are excellent fearless protection dog, ridiculously smart. Oh I miss his face so much. He was magnificent! Thank you for sharing. It’s not a common breed in the US.

I don't blame them because if he got irritated and got after anything? l just simply wouldn't be able to stop him. Finally dad gave it away to some people to use as a sheep dog.

[@micheledietrick265]

Some breeds need a massive amount of exercise. They need lots of space and trails to run on. I had a German Shepard and she was happy running on the trails in woods. They need to get that energy out. Have them highly socialized from the time they are tiny. Visiting with crowds of people and other kinds of animals.

[@saltyprepper5513]

CO is not a high energy dog. Mine never wants to leave home aside from a potty break. Lounges around all day.

[@BBBYpsi]

If you get a LSGD or any kind of guard dog training should start day 1. Crate training, food aggression, Basic comands like sit, down, stay, leave it..... It is well worth it in the long run. I have seen first hand many people fail these types of dog breeds. The last few years I have dealt mostly with Central Asian shepherds puppies & adults. My friend is a certified dog trainer & also owns many Central Asian Shepherds & has written the only book about them. I have come across 5 Caucasions in the last 4 years. All trained well enough I could touch them. But I was not ever gonna ask to do so. I know they can be more aggressive than a central asian shepherd. People friendly caucasions is a defect in them. Just like it is with Central Asian Shepherds aka Alabai

[@cryptojunkies3619]

Your friend is a female am I right? If it is who I think it is I am reading her book right now and plan to one day get one of her pups. I love the character of the Alabai and hers are of that true character, no nonsense, bite first ask questions later nature. I won't get one until I have the time required and proper property to ensure others are safe and my dogs are safe.

[@hilario6128]

The Alabai is very different from the Caucasian Ovcharka. Much more calmer and can be handled in the presence of strangers despite being bigger. My CO, no one could stop him in the face of danger - basically any man alive and breathing - and he would go ballistic. My Alabai is very calm and read my reaction.

🤔 The true origin of this breed is that it was developed by the Soviet Union Military as guard dogs for the prisons and the border guards. These dog where developed by crossing CAO with several breeds of livestock guardians and working type dogs. These are not pets these are working dogs it’s just that simple. These are not dogs for homes with small children, inexperienced owners or people who are physically and mentally weak. These are not dogs you let strangers or guest to your home pet. These dogs are best suited to farms, large estates and homes with large yards.

My understanding was that the Caucasian shepherd was created by Red Star kennels during the cold war, and that the "land race" style history you described is more applicable to the Alabai/Central Asian shepherd.

[@jerrelhintergardt6898]

The giant 200+ pound CO dogs were made by the communists in the Red Star kennels of USSR. They are excessively agressive and so not make good pets nor livestock guardians. Most breeders will not sell these to homeowners. My CO s do not play ball or games. They are working guardian dogs. Run them beside a bike for a couple hours daily for exercise. I don't understand why people want a big dog that is capable of seriously injuring threats only to try and make them "pets". Get a dog that has the characterics you need. Want a good pet, get a golden retriever. Want to keep bad guys away. COs are great.
