The Caucasian mountain dog also known as the Caucasian Ovtcharka is an ancient breed that for centuries was little known outside the remote regions where hail, namely the Caucasus which incorporate: Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Dagestan , Iran and Turkey. The dog or Ovtcharka Caucasian mountain (in Russian Ovtcharka means the pastor or shepherd dog) is a member of the working breed of dog, despite its name the dog pastor / pastor that this dog was never a cowboy of livestock but rather a guardian or a protection that go a long way in explaining its format is not irrelevant! The Caucasian mountain dog was bred to protect livestock from wolves, from bears and other predators, in fact, the Caucasian Ovtcharka has a mysterious resemblance to a bear! Given a reasonably up recently by many as a descendant of the Tibetan Mastiff, updated archeological evidence suggests that the descent has come from ancient dogs who have lived in the wooded hills of Iraq and Mesopotamia. It is believed that the assorted types of dog that accompanied the nomadic tribes that have been filed in the regions of the Caucasus, with little intervention and interference from the influences of the outside, have finally evolved into the Caucasian mountains Dog.Up up to 30 years, the Caucasian Ovtcharka was little known outside its home range until it has begun to appear in European dog shows in Germany. Around 1952, the Caucasian mountain dog were divided into two distinct breeds: the Transcaucasian Ovtcharka that the dog is typically heavy-boned and massive that hail from the mountainous regions, and the Caucasian Ovtcharka, much less the kind that comes from the developed regions of the steppe . In 1976 the two sub-raising have been consolidated and restructured as a race and now the Caucasian mountain dog is thought that comply with a single sample. Is that how can however, the various sub-breeds can still be regionally differentiated by the various territories of former USSR and today a coveted type of dog Caucasian mountains of Georgia is the so-called secondary-breeding which is typically a dog often -coated, heavy-boned, voluminous that resembles the more closely to a bear. The potential of the Caucasian mountain dog much more than a dog guardian of livestock (LGD) was created quickly by the now defunct Soviet and soon enough from this dog breed that was used during both wartime and peace As the military assistant; personnel "within the expanse of the Soviet Union. In the late 60s the largely Caucasian Ovcharka was introduced in East Germany specifically for the duty to patrol the border, mainly to bow to sweep the Berlin Wall crime hotspot. When the Berlin Wall came down overthrew in 1989, since then, at least 7000 strong unit of the Caucasus mountain dogs used to sweep the Wall 's perimeter was dispersed and many of those dogs have found new homes all' Procedure of the civilian population recently emancipated! The breed of dog TemperamentThis was developed to house the multitudes and livestock and therefore has a strong characteristic inherent security / attendant. Mostly because a dog of the family of Collie onboard tend to gather the family as a replacement multitude of sheep, the Caucasian mountain dog has a tendency to be somewhat protective of their immediate family, a characteristic that has obvious benefits but perhaps less obvious consequences. The Caucasian Ovcharka is (some might say stubborn) a strong-willed breed of dog that requires a steady hand for more socialization and training adequate. The so-called tough nature of this type of dog is not surprising when one considers that it has been bred over hundreds of years to correct these qualities. This dog was bred in large part to exist independent of human beings (except the pastor) and was bred to coexist with livestock that was custodicendo, so that the dog Caucasian mountain race is inherently cautious of strangers is the people or animals. Unsurprisingly, the Caucasian Ovtcharka is most active at night (livestock predators tend to look under the cover of night) and could even give the impression that being a dog of lazy nap? the SA of? ita of the large, the least suggestion of the intruders Caucasian mountain dog gets nimbly to its feet, giving the alarm (bark) and immediately go to compare the threat! The Caucasian Ovcharka takes very seriously the protection of its territory (now consider that the yard of the family) and consider all the invasion by an unknown threat. Despite the difficult format this dog is characterized by the use of minimum force to deter any threat. This minimum force can probably take the form of the comparison of predator and debarking and growl aggressively, that's usually enough to change the minds of most of the intruders as much as their wild counterparts canidate, this old breed of dog still retains the mindset that physical force (or deadly) should be a last resort because it tends to be counterproductive (ie, a wound to the party or the other). The goods with the kids? As previously celebrated this breed of dog tends to replace their immediate family for livestock that was selectively bred to protect, in other words, this dog is strong protective of their family members. So it is important to understand that this dog could perceive child 'rambunctious or maximum; s game between a member of the family and a friend (as is the trend with the boys) to be a threat and the genetics of hardwired protect – -multitude calci immediately to give the inside! So it is extremely crucial to properly socialize this breed of dog and also to explain to your kids know that just because that "Shaggy" do not damage anything, should understand that the same could not go to their friends unless the dog knew them well (that is, had accepted as an extension of its multitude). Obviously with a dog this format all the activity around small children should be supervised, because even the family pet can not understand the damage, the dog? the SA of? of ita great that during the heat of the game can easily forget its strength and difficult phase in and could accidentally harm a child at a young age! The application of the condominium in? Generally, the Caucasian mountain dog is not the ideal inhabitant of the apartment. Although like most large dogs on the energy level is somewhat lower this breed of dog is inherently night and was bred to alert and warn of and out from intruders. In other words your love for your dog Caucasian mountain could well translate into hatred by your neighbors because your Caucasian Ovcharka is guiding pazzeschi with its cacophony today (the | of which? Of barking is particularly true if your neighbors Animals are creatures of the party aka night). Interactivity with other DogsFrom a point of view that the genetic Caucasian mountain dog was not bred ever to be overly friendly with other canids is dogs or wolves, because as a guardian of the multitude it was thought to have avoided all potential predators who would course, including wild dogs. But as with most of the race throughout the current and appropriate socialization of the dog usually overlapped any unfriendliness toward other dogs or animals in this breed! The breed of dog StandardCurrently Caucasian mountain there seems to be contrasting samples of race can be partly explained by the different sub-raising and delayed acceptance of this breed in AKC; hours starting from this dog breed did not place AKC . Recently ago only move the AKC to officially recognize this breed of dog (May 2007) although the Caucasian Ovcharka was sull'annotazione with the FSS (services reserve basis) since 1996.
