Croatian Sheep Dog

The "Hrvatski Ovar" (Croatian for "Croatian Sheep Dog") is a canine breed with its roots in Croatia. Sheep in particular are herded and protected with the help of these dogs. They are recognized for their brilliance, loyalty, and great work ethic.

Croatian Sheepdogs are medium-sized, sturdy dogs that come in a variety of coat colors (black, black and white, and gray) and coat densities (quite dense). They usually have two layers of fur to ward against the cold.

Croatian Sheep Dogs are versatile farm dogs that are employed for a variety of tasks beyond herding and protecting sheep. Although they make excellent friends and suitable household pets, these dogs, which have a working dog background, need frequent exercise and mental stimulation.

The herding instincts that have made these dogs famous also make them great candidates for dog sports and obedience instruction. Overall, the Croatian Sheep Dog is a versatile and diligent breed, well valued by those in the farming and herding sectors.
