Afgan kuchi native mountain shepherd of Afghanistan


Pashtun call them "Ghiljak" or "Kucchi" shepherd  is an Afghan  livestock guardian dog, taking its name from the kuchi people  of Afghanistan.It is a working dog following the nomads, protecting caravans and flocks of sheep, goats, camels and other livestock from wolves, big cats and thieves. It is sometimes known as just a local variant of the Central Asia shepherd Dog  and its status as a distinct breed is disputable.
The Kuchi dog breed possesses a very rich gene pool and the dogs adapt well to varying environments. It also means that gene expression can vary greatly from one individual to another. For that reason, it is often difficult for an unaccustomed observer to determine what makes a particular dog a true Kuchi dog, or what type of a Kuchi dog it is.
