02Why Karakachan

Karakachans aren't one-track specialists or fighting machines. They live on the farm, know horses, know people — and take their job as guardians seriously.

03Jan & the farm

My plan was simple.

I wanted livestock guardian dogs for my foals on my own farm. But at first that was just theory. First, I had to find a breed that could cope with horses, people, daily farm life, and the threat of wolves. Rah and Sun have been here since they were puppies and grew up in exactly this setting.

I'm a horse trainer and breeder, a farmer, a hunter, and I hold an official certificate for keeping birds of prey. So wolves aren't something I know about only from talk shows.

07Straight talk

Is this the right dog for you?

The breed is very versatile and has been used in rural areas for all kinds of tasks over the centuries. My puppies are now ready to go. They are very well socialized. They know not only the outdoors, horses, paddock, pasture and yard loader, but also the stable, the barn and indoor rooms with carpet and tiles. They are dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated.
