Description

The Kangal Dog is a Turkish breed of domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris), and is regarded as the national breed of Turkey. The Kangal, which weighs between 100-165 lbs (45-72 kgs)fully-grown,[8] was originally used as a livestock guardian dog. It is of an early mastiff type with a solid, pale tan or sabled coat, and with a black mask.

The breed is often referred to as a sheep dog, but distinction has to be made in regards to its function not as a herding dog, but as a flock guardian that lives with the flock to actively fend off wolves, bears and jackals. The Sivas Kangal Dog's protectiveness, loyalty and gentleness with small children and animals has led to its growing popularity as a guardian for families as well, as it regards people as its "flock" and guards them with extreme devotion.
