The Watchdogs - The Romanian Carpathian Shepherd

Strong and rustic dog, the Romanian Carpathian Shepherd is the centuries-old partner of the Romanian shepherds from the Carpathian Mountains. It is an alpine dog, selected from an endemic breed existing in the Carpathian-Danubian area. The first breed standardization project belongs to the National Zootechnical Institute, which after four years of field research, publishes the breed standard in February 1934.
According to studies, the Carpathian is a wolf-type dog, derived directly from Canis Matris Optimae, characterized by a long skull, flat forehead, narrow and long snout.
It is said that he lived in the Bronze Age and is considered the ancestor of all modern shepherd dogs.
In a geographical area where there is a large number of predators, the Romanian Carpathian Shepherd was formed, as a stand-alone dog breed, recognized for its role in guarding and defending herds and homes. We Romanians should be proud that in the cultural and genetic heritage we have a spectacular dog breed, with whom we can always compete on an equal footing with any other dog breed in the world.- Vasile Iclenzan - Chairman of Carpatin Club Romania .

Carpatinul este cel mai frumos dintre ciobănești românești și printre cei mai frumoși dintre rasele de câini ciobănești din lume. Sunt câini de turmă, de talie medie, câini ușori, agili, care trăiesc în medi extreme, însoțind turma de oi zi de zi, în transumanta prin ploi și zăpadă, de multe ori flămânzi. Au fost formați și selectați de ciobani pe criterii de utilitate, pe criterii numai de ei știute și au format un anumit tip de câine care îi era de folos în lungile drumuri de transhumanta unde ziua le erau tovarăși de drum iar nopțile lungi erau ochi și urechile lor.

Carpatinul e de talie mare, nicidecum talie medie. Asta rezulta si din standard.
