About me
I live on my family's small 80-acre farm.
A few years ago I had a problem with coyotes killing my goats so I began to look for a way to protect my goats while I was at work, I looked in to donkeys for protection, but once I realized how much donkeys eat, I realized that we did not have the kind of pasture it would take to support them.
Then one day I met an Anatolian shepherd breeder, and we talked for 2-3 hours about the dogs, then I went home and started my study on the net, Next, I talked it over with the family and decided to try out the dogs. I was so happy with the breed that I decided to become Anatolian shepherd breeder myself.
As an added bonus, I soon found that Anatolian shepherds do very well with chickens (if trained properly) and will act as guardians for the chickens as well as the goats.
We have also found these dogs to be very good with children. My female Anatolian shepherd loves to watch my young siblings (they are 11, 10 and 7 years old) play out side and has shown protective behaviors when strange animals (or people) approach the children.
I greatly appreciate that you are considering buying an Anatolian shepherd puppy from me and I wish to make sure that all purchases go as smoothly as possible.
I have also compiled information on this website to help you decide if Anatolian shepherds are the right breed for you, So please take some time out and give my web site a good look over before you make your choice.
I also wish to stress to you how much care I give these puppies to assure that they are in excellent health when you receive them.
To ensure that the puppies get the best possible start in life, I keep the puppies up to date with their latest vaccinations/shots, The puppies are also wormed on a regular basis. I also take the puppies to the vet before you receive them (for a general physical) to make doubly sure the puppies are in top shape and ready to go to their new home.
I recommend that the puppies stay with their dam (mother) until they are 8 weeks old, this gives them a better start in life because it allows them to be properly weaned. It also gives them an extra 2 weeks of wholesome mother's milk. It also allows the puppies play with their litter mates longer which helps their muscle development.
