Romanian Carpathian Shepherd
The Romanian Carpathian Shepherd Dog is an ancient and robust breed originating from the Carpathian Mountains of Romania. Historically used by Romanian farmers to guard livestock against formidable predators such as wolves and bears, this breed is renowned for its bravery, loyalty, and protective instincts. With a wolf-like appearance and a dense, double coat, they are well-adapted to harsh mountain environments. Intelligent and independent, they form strong bonds with their families but can be wary of strangers. Their natural guarding abilities make them excellent watchdogs, while their calm and dignified nature allows them to be loving companions when properly socialized.
