The Caucasian Shepherd, also known as the Caucasian Ovcharka, is a massive guardian dog originally bred in the Caucasus Mountains. This beast boasts weight up to 100 kg and height around 70 cm, making it a proper fortress on four legs. Known for its intimidating appearance and fierce loyalty, it's your go-to for guarding livestock or perhaps your questionable taste in pets.
Expect a dense double coat designed for brutal winters and a temperament that's protective to the point of paranoia. They require a confident owner with ample space and experience handling large, dominant dogs. Training is non-negotiable; otherwise, you might end up with a furry dictator.
Prices in Australia for a pup can range from $2,000 to $3,500 AUD, and used dogs might be found via PuppyList or other classifieds for less but expect a handful. Consult official breed clubs and vet sources for detailed care and legal considerations.
