The Karakachan dog is a large, livestock guardian dog breed from Bulgaria. It is one of the oldest breeds of dogs in Europe, and its ancestors may have been brought to the Balkans by the Thracians as early as the 3rd millennium BC. The Karakachan were traditionally used by shepherds to protect their flocks from wolves, bears, and other predators.
The breed was almost wiped out during the communist era in Bulgaria, when large-scale collectivization of agriculture led to a decline in the need for livestock guardians. However, the Karakachan was saved by a group of enthusiasts who began breeding the dogs in the 1970s. Today, the breed is once again thriving, and it is used for a variety of purposes, including livestock guarding, police work, and therapy.
