Kangal - TurkishAnimals D.C.A

The Sivas Kangal Dog is a breed of domestic dog, and is the national breed of Turkey. This dog, which can weigh in excess of 120 pounds (64 kg) full-grown, was originally used as a Livestock guardian dog. It is of an early mastiff type with a solid, pale tan or sabled coat, and with a black mask; indeed, another name for the breed is Karabash which translates into black head.

The breed is often referred to as a sheep dog, but it does not herd its charges. Insead, it is developed to live with the flock and act as a livestock guardian dog, fending off wolves, bears and jackals.The Turkish Kangal Dog's protectiveness and gentleness with small children and animals has led to its growing popularity as a guardian for families as well, as it watches members of its flock with extreme devotion.
