Character and Temperament

Exercise

If your Bulgarian Shepherd is not working as a livestock guardian, plan for at least 60 minutes of vigorous activity with your Bulgarian Shepherd every day to keep them from getting bored and becoming overweight.

Origin

The Bulgarian Shepherd—also referred to as Karakachan—originated in Bulgaria as guardians for mountain livestock. Although they can be reserved with strangers, they are devoted and loyal to their families.
