    My mom's friend got a Šarplaninac because she lived in a forested area with bears (in Slovenia); to keep her safe while she took a walk. I remember we once went on a walk with him, her, my mom and I, and despite it being the first time we met him, the whole walk he would instinctively go ahead of us, check if the coast was clear, then wait till we passed him and check again, over and over, till we came home. He would also very gently shoulder check any of us if we lagged behind to take a pic or something, literally herding us together at all times- he was on the clock! His shoulders were hip-height for me, and I'm not a very short person. His head was easily the size of my arm up to the elbow, if he went on hind legs he would easily reach way above my height - but he was so aware of his size and so gentle. Once he saw the owner hug us, we were automatically adopted and part of his herd forever. I don't know if he's ever taken on a bear, but he has scared wild boars and wolves away, his owner said. Absolutely amazing breed.

      Međutim, s obzirom na to da je ovo područje kroz istoriju bilo deo različitih političkih entiteta, šarplaninac se može smatrati autohtonom rasom celog šireg regiona Balkana, uključujući i delove Srbije. U Severnoj Makedoniji, šarplaninac je priznat kao nacionalna rasa.

No complaining, no yapping, no cuff-biting, never in a bad mood, great family dog (particularly for children), etc. People who have these breeds are real dog people. I'm just a little biased, of course. This is a beautiful animal, well-loved and a bit spoiled, I'm sure. :-)

    This video made me cry. My beautiful Šarplaninac passed away earlier this year at the age of 13. He was the best boy around, he would always get so happy when I would visit back home, he was such a gentle giant, he would tolerate everything even our tiny Maltese mix jumping on him all day long and the kittens playing with his tail. He was the most loving and loyal dog I ever had and I miss him so much! I was very surprised to see this breed in this video, they’re native to Serbia and rarely kept outside of the Balkans!

    YEEEEEYYYY, finally, Šarac...One of most favorite breeds in Balkan peninsula, or region. They are real angels, soft and gentle, but even with no training, they can instantly become your worst nightmare if you think of harming his flock, aka family. I have one story from my family. My fathers second wife, aka stepmom, had one. And she and her late husband went to the city one day. When they came home, they found open doors to the house, and burglar pinned to the wall, with Šaronja standing on her back feet, targeting his throat. Only when they called police, and calmed her down, she let her guard down. So, be nice to them, and they'll be nice to you.
    There are so many more breeds from ex Yougoslavia region, or Balkans if you will. You had croatian shepperd, Šarplaninac, Dalmatian...if would be awesome if there were even more, like tornjak, various versions of herddog (goniči, like istrian, posavski...)

    Most amazing breed ever! We were so lucky to find our girl, Sophie as a rescue dog. She was also lucky to come to live out in the country with only us to guard from the coyotes. The paw shake is Sophie's only trick--working dogs do not generally see the merit of silly tricks! Love this!

      If I would walk down the street and see this face...I would immediately loose speech, so I couldn't even ask the owner if it was okay if I touch him.
      I would talk silently to him and him alone. Like reaching out my hand for him to sniff and duck a bit (just a bit).
      Finding my speech again, I would ask the owner if I could come by for a play date and to comb his fur😂
