Do you recognize this breed?  It’s not one that I’ve posted photos of very often.  This is an Anatolian Shepherd Dog.  This breed is a member of the Working Group and is a guard dog with a superior ability to protect livestock.  They originated in Turkey more than 6,000 years ago and came to the United States during the 1950’s.  They have a sweet face and as you can see, this pooch enjoys getting brushed!
