The East European Shepherd. Also known as the VEO (Восточно-европейская овчарка / Vostochnya Evropyeskaya Ovcharka), this chap means business. Much like the German Shepherd on which he’s based, he’s a strong, hardy and industrious dog. He’s also very smart and loyal; he’ll happily be your very best friend and become extremely attached to you.
Hardy... and hard working / Intelligent and loyal / Your friend for life
With this breed it’s all about training, his relationships with other dogs, strangers and children all depend on his attachment to you and how you communicate your feelings towards the people he meets. He’s easy to train, a child could do it, but it must be done from the very beginning and there must be no doubt of who’s in command: you!
Instruction is the key / He’ll be your servant / Very easy to train
He’s a working dog, bred for the security forces of the USSR; the police, the military. He needs regular exercise, so constant engagement and daily walks are a must. He loves to be given various tasks to develop his intelligence and his play should always be challenging.
Bred to work as a guard / Needs a daily walk / Intellectual challenges a must
As for care, a good brushing twice a week to remove dead hair is enough, with a bath needed as seldom as twice a year; for a treat he’ll really enjoy a splash in a pond during the summer. Despite his size he’ll happily live in an apartment if a larger house and garden isn’t available, as long as he has a decent bed and a litter area.
Grooming needs are minimal / Enjoys a dip in the summer / Happy with most living arrangements
Interesting facts: Breeders in the USSR carefully and systematically restored the breed’s bloodline from the German Shepherd, without any external influences or expertise. Trainers and security forces around the world often favour him over the German Shepherd, as he can be almost silent and stay perfectly still whilst on duty.
Bred without outside intervention / Favoured for his ability to guard like a robot
