Oxana - Anatolian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Rifle, Colorado

Hi! I am Oxana. I am a large female Kangal/Anatolian Shepherd. I am a very sweet girl with people and I have played with other dogs in the past but I tend to want to be the boss of the house which could lead to some butting of heads with other dogs. I am very potty trained and keep my kennel nice and clean (except for all the hair!) I was most likely a livestock guardian dog in my previous life and probably wouldnt mind going back to work if thats what you are looking for! If I sound like your type of dog, come meet me today!

The Anatolian Shepherd is a large and powerful ancient breed known for its loyalty, intelligence, and protective nature. Originating in Turkey, these dogs were bred to guard livestock from predators, showcasing their strong natural instincts. Anatolian Shepherds have a distinctive short double coat that comes in various colors, with a black mask common on their faces. They require early socialization and consistent training to manage their independent yet devoted temperament effectively.
