Anatolian guarding dog.Namibia.Anatolian shepherd dogs with herder. Anatolian Shepherds originated in Turkey over 6000 years ago. During this time, they have been bred to be trustworthy, attentive and protective. They stand approximately 24inchs at the shoulder and can weigh up to 150lbs (most average about 100lbs). If an intruder approaches, the dogs bark first and will only attack as a last resort. Most predators will avoid this large, and aggressively loud breed of dog. For the shy cheetah, the risk of injury far outweighs the chance of a meal..
