Sarplaninac dog

The Sarplaninac is a robust and imposing breed, exhibiting a powerful and well-proportioned build. Its muscular frame is accompanied by a thick double coat, providing formidable protection against harsh weather and potential adversaries. Males typically stand at 65 to 75 cm (25.6 to 29.5 inches) and weigh between 40 to 55 kg (88 to 121 lbs), while females are slightly smaller.

The head is broad, adorned with a well-defined stop, and the ears hang low, framing a no-nonsense expression. They have dark, almond-shaped eyes. Its neck is strong, merging seamlessly into a level topline that extends to a bushy tail. With a weather-resistant coat that varies in colour but often appears in shades of white, grey, or fawn, the Sarplaninac commands attention.

Temperamento

Sarplaninac dog

The Sarplaninac, known for its steadfast temperament, is a no-nonsense guardian breed. This Balkan shepherd is fiercely protective and wary of strangers. With a calm demeanour, it’s generally loyal to its family but requires early socialisation. Its independent nature demands a firm, consistent handler.

Not ideal for novice owners, the Sarplaninac suits families seeking a vigilant protector rather than a cuddly companion. Training demands a resolute approach, as this breed responds best to clear boundaries and a strong leader.

Abrigo

Sarplaninac coat

The Sarplaninac boasts a dense, double coat that demands regular care to ensure its health and appearance. This large, protective breed requires weekly brushing to manage shedding and prevent matting. Seasonal shedding peaks in spring and fall, warranting increased grooming during these times. Occasional baths using a mild dog shampoo suffice unless the dog gets exceptionally dirty.
