Caucasian Shepherd Dog
The Caucasian Shepherd Dog was first developed for protection and is known for its strong and sturdy build. These dogs have heads shaped like wedges and tails that curve thickly. Their fur is dense and can be red, fawn, or gray, often with white patches, and they feature a dark mask on their face. Their demeanor is thoughtful and serious, showing a confidence that feels almost royal. There are two varieties: the Mountain Caucasian Shepherd, which has a longer, thicker coat and a bulkier frame, and the Steppe Caucasian Shepherd, which has a shorter coat and a lighter build.
