Anatolians shed...they'll leave a one-of-a-kind Turkish rug on your floors everyday (think of it! 365 brand new Turkish rugs every year!)...whether smooth or rough-coated. If you don't wish to sacrifice your environment to lots of dog-hair...the Anatolian is not for you.
Anatolians poop... Mini-Cooper sized poops....all day, everyday. Extra on holidays.
Anatolians eat...plan on spending at least $200.00-300.00 per month on high-quality raw meats & ingredients in order to maintain great health for one dog.
Anatolians dig...have you ever wanted a retro bomb-shelter in your yard? No prob...you'll have several options in which to reside when the neutron melt happens.
Anatolians need a huge vehicle to ride in!
Anatolians need large padded beds to reside on in the house...a queen sized mattress will work. One by your bed & one by the French doors...
Anatolians can leap like a deer...so, your fencing will need to be hot-wired at the bottom & top. What? You don't have fencing? It is required for an Anatolian & it in the least, should be non-climb horse-fence. They are adept at quickly scanning perimeter fencing & gates for structural weaknesses, so that they can adventure out...& increase their territory! In short, they need acreage.
Despite these few little tics...prepare to fall in love once & forever.
