A real bruiser of a dog.

So here is a real mean bugger, not for rabbits or hares.

Yes his ears are cropped, they have to be!

Sorry about the crap photo.

This was my house guard dog, when trading with the locals, in rural Anatolia...

 

You have me there I don't know what that is, some sort of Mastiff? or is it like mine a hybrid of sorts?

I could be wrong but the ones i seen i dont think its for any particular reason other than it looks right.similar to us over here with rotts and tails. Good dogs i like them but big place needed.

A lot of the Nomad's jukels have cropped ears....their job is to see off, and frequently kill, Wolves and stray dogs,.. 

I guess the owners feel that 'ears off' helps the dog in a rough and tumble scrap...

All I know is,. .these feckers would just as soon as bite ya, as they would the enemy,...and when travelling in remote villages, it was frequently, emotional...

A cracking kang. The hybrids that are used in the tatra mountains for catching wolves certainly pay the price and you right, each and everyone would happily bite you and anybody else.
