The Anatolian or Kangal Shepherd dog is a historic Turkish breed of large livestock guardian dog native to eastern Turkey.

While the Kangal Shepherd Dog is often referred to as a sheep dog, it is not a herding dog, but rather a guardian who lives and bonds with the flock of sheep to actively fend off predators of all sizes and hunt them down.

With adults reaching 132 lbs and 31″ high, the Kangal shepherd is widely regarded as having the most powerful bite force of all domestic dogs. Typically used as protection against wolves, bears, and jackals in its native Turkey, the breed has been exported to African countries like Namibia and Kenya in more recent years due to its intimidating size and capabilities as an effective guardian, where it successfully protects local herds from lions, cheetahs, and similar indigenous big cats, which has had the benefit of not only protecting livestock, but ensuring the continuity of endangered predators due to reduced cullings by local farmers.

All of those were great, my two favorites are the dog who changed his mind (which shows he certainly has brain activity) and the little boy playing with the goat; he was not deterred by having the goat butt him and falling down. So very cute.

The dog that changed his mind is just like two I have. If I toss a treat to one and he spits it out the female runs and devours it so then I throw one more the male is all for eating it now. And it was cantaloupe guess the texture was off for him but the woman changed his mind lol.;-) Great Post Doc
