oh guys, you don't know what you're getting into.... i'm Native American, Greek, Irish, Czechloslovakian, Welsh, French, Dutch, Polish, Scottish, English, and i'll do italian as well since i lived with a hardcore italian family for four years (plus i love Neopolitan mastiffs....)

Native American Indian Dog (thanks mostly to Una on this board, he's SO gorgeous, after i saw him i had to do some research on the breed)

or Catahoula Leopard dog, if that counts...it was created in America, just not necessarily by the natives...

i'll do the rest later, don't have time now.

Moonstr80, where did you get that picture of the Caucasian Ovcharka??? That is Julius, owned by a very close friend of mine. Very very impressive CO who is also incredibly BIG even for a CO.

 

[drmom777]

MilosMommy- I have to tell you that you can't be Czechoslovakian. As a Czech (Born in Chicago but spoke only Czech util I went to school) I know that not only are Czechs and Slovaks not the same and have a different language, but they don't even like each other much. We may have been one nation for a while but it was an artificial union.

Anyway I guess that puts me in for the Cesky Terrier and the Czech Wolfdog. I don't know if the Slovaks have managed to produce any unique breeds.

Oh ...? Will need to let her know eh? The wikipedia are using the pix!
This is where I got the pix from as well. I'm actually Ukrainian but -- it's same thing as being Russia lol

Here's the site
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasian_Ovcharka

 

[CelticxConnections]

They're from the Caucasus Mountains in Russia, but close enough

The Ukraine use to be part of the USSR, because of the transitive property they are from the Ukraine

Plus the Ukraine doesn't really have any of its own dog breeds as far as I know. They do however have several feral children raised by dogs.

Ah that's true Sorry, my mistake...

 

[planet molosser]

I think the South Russian Ovcharka is from the Ukraine.

Ive met/shown most of the molosser russian breeds and the most impressive and really a Russian breed is the Black Russian Terrier.

Here is a pic of the 3 Ovcharka breeds so you can judge size
