Additional info on some of our special breeds dogs needing homes
The Romanian Mioritic, Raven, Charpatian, Caucasian and Bucovina Shepherd Dog origins come from near the Romanians Carpathian Mountains. These breeds are in general very impressive in size and character. They are loyal, reliable, independent, and fiercely protective, They are friendly and devoted to their family and in general very mistrusting of strangers until they learn to trust them.
They are in general large dogs and with any dog of this size and temperament, require daily exercise and basic obedience training. These breeds are lively and stubborn, but in spite of all their independence they are very sensitive, loving, caring creatures in their furry armour. Due to their size and the traits of these angels we are obliged to find adopters experienced with large dogs or specifically these breeds.
Below are some points to consider before you commit to adopting a dog:
1. Do you have the time and patience to train and socialise the dog. These type of dogs are mostly used for guarding shepherd animals and livestock, families and the property and therefore, they require a strong pack leader. Another dog in the family which is calm would help a lot in training the young " sibling".
2. These dogs have a long coat and do moult, requiring regular grooming.
3. We need to stress that these breeds and mixed breeds although as a puppy are very attractive, fluffy, cute looking dogs they can grow into very large and powerful dogs These type of dogs needs space both indoor and outdoor to exercise.
4. These dogs are very loyal, reliable, independent, loving, and protective and devoted to their family, but can be very mistrusting of strangers. They are very intelligent, smart and disciplined breed which means they respond well to training.
We do not want to put anyone off in adopting these stunning, loving intelligent breeds, but we want to make sure you have this information.
We would highly recommend that all potential adopters who are interested in rescuing a dog and adopting these breeds carry out some research prior to make sure they are a fit for the family. Please do reach out if you have any questions.
