ABOUT: AKBASH DOG BREED
The Akbash is a large, noble breed originating from Turkey, known for their remarkable dedication and protective nature towards their flock. These majestic white dogs possess a calm yet alert demeanor, making them excellent livestock guardians. Renowned for their courage and intelligence, Akbashes are independent thinkers with a strong instinct to defend their charges. While gentle and affectionate with their families, they require early socialization and consistent training to thrive as well adjusted companions.
The setter is a distinguished breed known for its elegant appearance, friendly demeanor, and exceptional hunting abilities. Originating in 19th century Britain, setters were originally bred for their skill in locating game birds and signaling their presence by "setting" or crouching. With their distinctive feathered coats, graceful movement, and expressive eyes, setters make loyal and affectionate companions for active families. Their gentle nature, intelligence, and eagerness to please make them well-suited for various dog sports and activities.
