It's October and we're opening up deposits for this year's Anatolian Shepherd litter.
Our Anatolians are full-blooded and registered. They will be fully vaccinated before they go to new homes and each application will be screened for fit.
Anatolians make amazing Livestock Guardians. We completely switched over to Anatolians a few years ago from a mix of Anatolians and Great Pyrenees. They do really well in different climates and we have found they do well even in our Florida heat.
An Anatolian Shepherd Dog is a rugged, imposing flock guardian of ancient lineage. Protective and territorial, but also intelligent, patient, and profoundly loyal, these muscular avengers are prized as working guard dogs without equal.
