These dogs not easily handled at small areas and they are pretty wild to unfamiliar live things. dont try to pet them they have a duty . They are live stock guardians !
My grandfather was a sheepherder in central anatolia. These dogs were so amazing . They require no training just love and they know what to do . 1 tip do not get them as a house/appartment dog . They have to GUARD something, so they will end up guarding you against anything . Its dangerous. If you have lifestock and a piece of land they are the perfect guarding equipment, even bears are not safe for them 😊
Currently have a 10 week old male and we Love him but i've nicked named him Genghis Kangal! He's intense but intelligent and responsive to those to things going on, pick's up on changes and is already potty trained.
Livestock guardian dogs aren't good pets. They need a lot of exercise, are fiercely protective, and not very obedient because of the shepherd isn't around, they need independent thinking skills. Don't get one for a pet because you think it's "cool."
I have owned many mastiffs and terrier breeds. These dogs are special. the most gentle and well mannered who at the drop of a dime can turn into a killing machine. Super intelligent. They dont need a farm but do need companionship and a job. LISTEN WELL..... Given the choice, this dog would rather be outside with other dogs or livestock. Do not get this dog as a only apartment dog.
I have a Turkish stamp from the 70's of a fine dog on blue background which some modern breed enthusiasts would call a Kangal. However at the bottom of that stamp it says Coban kopegi, meaning shepherd dog. The term Kangal seems to be a more recent name of a colour and type which some years ago was called Karabash (black head). Shepherds are more interested in functionality of their sheep guardians than their colour wheras pedigree dog breeders would differ and be more specific. So in my opinion Kangals are actually Anatolian shepherd dogs (from Kangal/Sivas region of Turkey) but not all Anatolian shepherds could be called Kangals.
sorry i don't want to be angry , the amount of lies some people are spreading is unbelievable , like what do you think that my fatherland belongs to you as someone who came from the balkans and soviet republics ? These are Anatolian shepherds , they are widespread all over anatolia even as stray dogs , a kangal is a limited breed around sivas , the history of kangals is linked with circassian war refugees , they mixed their caucasus dogs with the anatolian shepherd to create this smaller more athletic dogs known as kangal , their history begins like a 100 years ago , Anatolian shepherd which is the origin is in this land for thousands of years before anyone called himself with any names . Stupid Artificial nationalities and multiculturalism , at least 60-70 % of turkish citizens have a migrant background , in no other country of the world there is such a crisis in identity , we are under siege by a crypto paralel society created by the British and russians to control my Homeland after world war 1 , thesse migrants are the only ones who call balkan people , caucasians , gypsies , mongols etc. as turkish because they can't live with reality they don't want the anatolian to wake up and take back it's homeland from corrupt and satanic criminals , they want to be at the middle of attention , so when ever foreigners meet "turks" they always meet these crypto migrant children with big mouths , they can never show you the soul of this country .
@@peaceandlove5214 thanks mate, I feel like it kind of a problem for me because i live in a city, and have no experience what so ever about anything related to farming, but I went to a farm once and fell in love with it.
pure yes....they lack power hence why they are mixed .....a pure kangal cant take a wolf 1on1 however the mixed breeds defo can ....perhaps even stand toe 2 toe with a gray wolf
@@hysmex4865 mixed ones are worse to kill or catch a wolf. Even all pure male kangals cant deal with a wolf allthough they are the best option to kill wolves.
We call it "yal", something like cow meal or soup, made from barley flour, eggs, yoghurt etc.. you should not give them to much meat, then they are getting fat and cumbersome
It is called mey, duduk or balaban (mey is used more by Turkish and Kurdish and has a bit of a buzzing sound, balaban and duduk from caucasus used by Azerbaycan and Armenia and sounds more clear and sad)
These are not Kangals. Nat Geo has it right…the muzzle, head shape, and eyes are all Anatolian Shepherd (not to mention, body line). The dogs pictured have extended flews, bigger/rounder eyes, longer spines, and the wrong head shape. However, I would not be surprised if they had Kangal DNA cause these rural sheep herders care less about purity and more about workability.
we have a massive problem in turkey with the children of migrants, we call them dönme , they came from the balkans and all kinds of soviet republics , they want to steal our identity because they have non or they want to mix it with what they are , this is why we have so confusing myths around the identity of the people in this country , they ruined everything .
These dogs are used in Namibia to protect livestock from predators... With the aim of stopping farmers from killing cheetahs... So, dog saves cat? See: www.cheetah.co.za/an_description.html :)
Uygar Bay you have many dogbreads in turkey and you guys all call them anatolion sheperds this one in the video was a kangal but I have seen people call a malakli and an akbash anatolian sheperd too🤣🤣
Kangal anotomi looks like more wolfy.Body more athletic then anatolian shepperd.Kangal face and eyes same..Looks like wolf. Kangal mouth and ears must be same color-black- Look picture of timberwolf , kangal and anatolian shepperd.Look carefully wich one more like wolf.That is kangal.Mr.Eikenberry
sorry but look at your picture , you are for sure a kazakh or uzbek a "turkified" mongol from soviet republics , don't involve in my peoples history because you are not part of it , this is like french speaking africans claim france is theirs .
yeah nice joke , it's not even enough to have lots of space , they are working dogs which means you need to have a farn best thing for these dogs , they have to protect , if you keep them like a hipster pet they will show agressions and stubborn behaviors , i came in contact with different types of dog breeds in my life and the Anatolain shepherd is really like a Person , they don't need you to pet them , they are somehow still wild dogs who need their distance and connection to nature , forget pit bulls and co. if these dogs get angry , you shouldn't be in front of them .
Even the Turkish people on here can't tell if it's a kangal or Anatolian shephard. Basically it's the same dog. The kangals in videos on you tube and tick tok are so called kangals. But they have breed anatolian shephards with Askeray Maliliki. All anatolian shephards are LUPO-MOSSELOIDS, meaning they are there own breed. No other breeds where mated with other dogs to get a Anatolian shephard. Job in bible had lots of them.they are very, very old. They are a real pure breed of dog. And dogs are not descended from wolves. Wolves are true carnivores, like a cat. A dog is a OMNIVORE, more plant matter than meat. They can live without eating animal protein if they had too. Turkish shephard dogs are the best on this planet, they will fight to the death.
I am having lot of fb friends from Turkey.. I saw sometimes they eating a full size goat.. I think they want lot of food. Kurdish Mastiff and Albai also interesting dog breeds. Big dogs like Kangals. Also search Kyrgyzstan "Taighan" a big hound dog. But not big as Kangal.. but very beautiful look. We will fall for their beauty. They will also attack wolves.. and then Afghan Koochi.. very impressive dog.
Just because they aren't fat and lazy like American couch dogs, doesn't mean they aren't fed. Shepherd's dogs are fed Yal, a porridge of barley flour, milk, meat scraps, and leftovers. They thrive on it. No grocery or pet stores out there. No vets either. These dogs are healthier than any pet.
@@sezginozcan5498 these dogs aren't supposed to be heavy Malakli yes Malakli can ve every possible weight even more than 100kg Kangal is about 70kg Boz shepherd known as taller kangals Are heavier and way taller
Only experienced peoples can handle kangal.Not only dog knowledge.Need general wild life knowledge.They are hard to control dogs for city persons.Kangal suited for large steppes not for another areas

it's individual , some dogs are not protective no matter the race , they would run away .
Stop calling them Anatolian Shepherd. The breeds name is Kangal and we brought them from middle Asia with us. That’s not an Anatolian breed.
Yeah, they are a turkish breed, people just steal their origin' name.
In turkey there's kangal dog and anatolian shepherd which has something else in it look it up

We call it "yal", something like cow meal or soup, made from barley flour, eggs, yoghurt etc.. you should not give them to much meat, then they are getting fat and cumbersome
