Description
Dog Breed: Anatolian Shepherd (medium coat). Meet Teddy! Teddy is a 3-year-old Anatolian Shepherd looking for the perfect home where he can put his natural livestock guardian skills to work while also being part of a loving family. Teddy has experience with livestock and does a wonderful job with sheep, goats, and other farm animals. Like many Anatolian Shepherds, he takes his job seriously and does best with a property that has secure fencing. A 6-foot fence is ideal, while a 5-foot fence may be possible with more consistent supervision. Without proper fencing or guidance, Teddy may wander to expand his patrol area. Beyond being a hardworking guardian, Teddy is a truly sweet dog who thrives on companionship. He loves being with people, enjoys attention, and is especially happy when he can be part of daily life. He also loves water, making him an even more fun companion for a farm or property where he can enjoy all the sights, sounds, and experiences of country living. Teddy would be an excellent fit for a hobby farm, ranch, or property looking for a devoted livestock guardian who also wants to be loved as a member of the family. Teddy can be adopted on his own or with his brother Prince, a 2-year-old Anatolian Shepherd. For someone looking for a working dog pair with secure fencing and livestock, these two boys could make an incredible team. If you have the right setup and are looking for a loyal guardian with a big heart, Teddy may be the perfect addition to your farm.

Overview:
The Anatolian Shepherd, an ancient and noble breed, hails from the rugged plains of Anatolia (modern-day Turkey), where they served as formidable guardians of livestock for thousands of years. These impressive dogs are renowned for their substantial size, typically weighing between 80-150 pounds and standing 27-29 inches tall, boasting a dense double coat that can range in color but is often fawn with a black mask. Their independent and intelligent nature makes them exceptional working dogs, displaying a strong protective instinct balanced with a calm demeanor. While fiercely loyal to their families, their guardian roots mean they are not ideal for apartment living; they thrive in homes with ample space and a job to do, making them unsuitable for inexperienced owners. With proper socialization and training, they can be wonderful companions, though their watchful nature means they often bond more closely with one or two family members. Generally a robust breed, potential health concerns include hip and elbow dysplasia, and bloat.
