Show Wins

As stated previously, our dogs come from very strong working lines many generations back. Many of our dogs are from direct Turkish Imports or are Imported themselves. These dogs have all done what they were bred to do every day of their lives - worked livestock.

When our dogs have been shown by us (a very few times) in the past, they were literally taken out of the fields they were working the morning of the show, cleaned up for the show, and returned back home to the field each night to continue on with their livestock protection duties. Excellent working ability is the most important factor and that is what they prefer to do.

Showing, in the past was used only to socialize our dogs. They just happen to have excellent conformation and do well at the shows too. They most certainly are excellent examples of the Kangal Breed.

Our Kangal dogs are always glad to get back home and out to the fields again. That is what they enjoy the most. Guarding their livestock.

This year (2008) we may show a little if we have time and the desire to do so. We will begin showing some of our working Kangal dogs this year (2008) as we know they are excellent examples of the Kangal breed as well.

Showing is our lowest priority but continues to be an excellent opportunity to socialize our working dogs as well as educate folks about the Kangal breed. However, keep in mind that these dogs are the same ones that work the fields each and every day.
