ok! so I don't think I've mentioned this, but I work at a doggy daycare. There are two dogs I really feel a strong connection with (brother and sister) that are "Native American Sheperds". I've just barely started to research this breed, but I'm having a hard time finding out info about it. Does anyone have any cool links or information for me? I'd be VERY appreciative. thank you!
With out looking it up I'd think you are thinking of the Native American Indian Dog.
Some people say they are real, others say it is a complete farce (as far as them having some of the original plains dogs in them.)
Either way they are a breed now. Some have reputable breeders, others don't.
I forget what it is but some breeders branched off and there is a line with another name now.
Pretty neat dogs, but it takes a special person to handle one. Personality wise I'd say you'd have the intelligence of a shepherd(GSD), the stubborn and assertiveness of an Akita, and the shyness of a wolf. (Though if i remember correctly none of those are in most of the lines.)
Still, at least you now may have a starting point to look up info. NAID.
