Majestic looking dog for sure. I'm curious as to what Diesel, the Anatolian Shepherd, is mixed with. No doubt you did a good job training him but I'm thinking it must because of the breed(s) in his mix. I hear it's extremely hard to train an Anatolian Shepherd, or any other independent strong breed, when the training starts in adulthood.
Since a month I adopted a kangal, mistreated and afraid of everything. Given up by professional dog trainers. He has amazed me with his progress. Biting me, and 2 of my other dogs in the first week, he has changed so much, he is protecting us as a flock. We have six dogs now. He is fond of me. Total trust. I am not experienced for this kind of breed, but he teaches me how to help him. Soft voices but strong hand leads him to full recovery. I love him
Brindle pattern is very common in Anatolians, and it has many darkeror lighter variations of them. Turks call them "çapar". just search for word "çapar"
Oh man. I have a 4 yr old brindle anatolian mix. He was surrendered, fostered, adopted and given up again before I brought him home 2 yrs ago. Still working on leash agression.
They just aren’t meant for leash walking. I have two and we walk them twice a day, use a sniffspot once a week for unleash no other distractions place to themself runs… and we head to my families farm twice a year where they just get to be…but yeah they desperately need some goats and to be working. They’re good pups though and less reactive as they’re maturing. But I’m always watching and prepared to keep a distance or change directions from other dogs. lol.
Very well done. I know what it takes to "tame" the temper a powerful dog. My recipe is love and trust but this may vary according to the breeds and individuals. I never knew an Anatolian Shepherd, I mean his (or her) character. If they are playful it`s easy, if they are more serious, it`s a bit more complicated. With my dog (male Hovawart) I only used positive reinforcement and hardly ever negative. That`s against my convictions. Well, anyway, what you showed me here was quite impressive. :-) Thank you.
Dog is not a full Anatolian but training will only mildly work, when anything he may perceive as a threat appears he will lunge and bark that’s why they are great guard dogs for livestock and territory. Dogs are manly hands on. If you cant stop the dog from his lunge it’s not safe to own. Always needs a strong collar and leash as well.
Please do not even think of getting this dog if you live in an apartment. Generally these are serious working dogs meant for livestock. If you have a big yard it may work out but you will be the "livestock" it guards lol
The dog has one on. She's carrying the controller in her right hand. Some Breeds are Never safe without some type of serious means to distract. I can tell you from experience with Irish Wolf Hounds, if they see something really "interesting" unless properly leashed and/or electronically collared, they'll be gone and possibly hit by a Car or something else bad will happen. We now have a 12 week old Kangal and he's as Hard headed as any Dog i've ever encountered! Going to be interesting?
@@oscarballard7911 dude I got a German Shepard coyote pit bull mix he’s so freaken hard headed man I can see you have lots of experience this is my first dog any tips on how to control this MONSTER I socialize him a lot with other dogs and people but he lack attention span he’s only 4 months but I have a feeling he’s gonna be a circus to train I don’t really like the idea of the shock collar I just feel it’s not natural to a dog. Any tips would help!!!
@@mando2.049 They have to have a way to expel Energy and some types likely yours, which is an interesting amalgamation need far more than average.

@@oscarballard7911 The unfortunate things with the kangal is that dog has little to no interest in 'fetch'. He might do it once or twice, then he'll look at you like your stupid for throwing the ball again, because he put it where it belongs. Some folks I know have GPS collared these dogs with satellite tracking collars. These dogs walk or run 60-100 miles in a day. This makes it very hard for city dwellers to deal with these breeds.
Attempting to "train " an anatolian or Kangal dog is criminal . it's in their nature to protect what they perceive as their territory . They are merely doing their job as genetically designed . If the care taker of the dog has a problem with this then they are the wrong peop,e to live with this type of dog . if possible that should only be used as a livestock guardian and not a house pet . The trainer SHOULD understand this but apparently in this case they do not . Stop trying to impose human behavior into animals . give the dog to someone that has the proper conditions for the dog .
This is a misuse of this dog and confusing for the dog. It would much rather be in a pasture full of livestock. FWIW, my laid back and well behaved female GSD is happiest and most confident when she gets around livestock.
Big deal. She walked the dog when thereI was practically no one around. That’s not a real test of obedience. When there were distractions they were at a distance. Again, not a real test of obedience.

Southridge and Leesylvania state park?

Not a breeds you walk on leashes. Get some goats…
@@anthonyfesta7010 if I had land for goats my friend, I would just let my dogs run wild. Thanks for advice though.
I have a 3yr old. Street walking still out of the question so into the woods we go. Off leash great with dogs and people though go figure
@@anthonyfesta7010lol true though

I have a anatolionix with maremma and he is sweet heart henissuch a good boy his best friend is a jack Russell
Nice job. Would be more impressive to see him walking through those spaces with people passing regularly, dogs passing, etc.

Great job...very impressive.
Great job!
What is he mixed with? Anatolians can be brindle although it is a very uncommon color.
There are dogs of this color in Anatolia and these dogs are called "çapar". this dog is not a kangal but there is definitely a kangal in his genes

Did they mix an Anatolian with a greyhound? Seems like a bad idea to mix a protection dog with one who has very high anxiety.

Is That a mix Kangal ?
I think is it a Capar kangal ?
çapar bu dostum kangal değil ama genlerınde mutlaka kangallık vardır

Do you use shock collars to train?

You are absolutely right I have two Kangal’s working on my farm and I would newer attempt to change their genetic predisposition !

Lol I take it you ever tried to walk an Anatolian. Her taking him for a walk is the most impressive thing.
@@dustinsmith3235
There’s another video of a guy heeling an Anatolian w/o a leash amongst people on a street.
👍 agreed
Maybe mixed but not an Anatolian Shepherd. Sorry.
Yeah I'd say this dog is more on the American Mastiff side than full Anatolian.
This dog can be a full Anatolian tje brindle is rare but not impossible in this breed.
@@chanocmacias6116
The dog has a short single coat and tail of the english mastiff.
