The Caucasian Shepherd is a real shaggy beauty that many people dream of, but such an animal is not suitable for everyone, and here's why.

Today we will tell you about the nuances of this breed that everyone who is thinking about acquiring such a pet needs to know.

A strong, intelligent and beautiful dog, which all representatives of this breed undoubtedly are, reaches an average height of 75 cm at the withers, and its weight ranges from 50 to 70 kg, but there are cases when the scales reached 110 kg.

Because these dogs were bred specifically to perform guard duties, they have a thick, dense undercoat that allows them to survive in harsh conditions.

This is why the Caucasian Shepherd is not suitable for keeping in an apartment.

This dog is not kept for fun, but so that it can fulfill its purpose, that is, to guard.

The Caucasian Shepherd Dog requires a lot of work to properly train it until it reaches 2 years of age.

Otherwise, the dog grows up with a wayward and capricious character, and if you add these indicators to the physical data, it becomes clear what danger a Caucasian can pose to both its owner and those around him.
