An ancient breed thought to date back about 4000 years, the Central Asian shepherd (or
CAS) is believed to be a descendent of the Tibetan Mastiff. However, there is not much
documentation about this breed, which is found most often in places like Russia, Iran,
Afghanistan and Siberia. The CAS is an independent dog that was originally used to
protect flocks and nomadic shepherds. Some think that a breed similar to the CAS
escorted the Mongols during their invasion of eastern and central Europe. Although very
rarely found in the United States, it is beginning to be bred more in America. The Central
Asian shepherd is usually seen only in the Central Asian Republic, but its popularity is also declining in Russia...... Fnd out more about this dog breed.
