Here's my new boy. He's a registered Caucasian Ovcharka. They're bred to be flock guard dogs in the Caucasus Mountains in Russia. They grow to be 130-150 lbs. He's one month old in the pic. We get him next weekend. Haven't pick out a name yet. Maybe Boris, Yuri or Luka.

Ha Chrisreyn my board collie just got out of the vet from being kicked in the head full tilt from my new 6yr old who was flat out tired of her biting his heels stupid dog wont ever learn hopefully now that her head is miss shaped she will.
On a sadder note I just had to put down my 16yr old golden retriever best dog I have ever had she will be missed so much she is down by the creek chasing the pheasants she loved to hunt and by god rest assured there will be a perminate remind that she is there and that is her spot.

Looks like a great dog for guarding a large property. I vote for naming him Boris. I found this web page for anyone who wants more info about the Caucasian Ovtcharka:

The pup is very well bred from a responsible breeder who doesn't breed overly aggresive dogs. When we met the father, he tore around the yard and then ran over, sat down and leaned on us wanting to get petted. Granted, I wouldn't go into the yard without the breeder there, but responsible ownership with a lot of socialization when the pup is young is the key to raising a well behaved dog. It's a shame that poor breeding and irresponsible owners ruin any dog's reputation.

99.9% of dog-related problems are due to bad owners, not bad dogs. I seriously considered a CO before I got my Neo. Great breed, and if they had shorter hair, I might have one today!
