Don’t let Viper’s striking brindle markings fool you — this boy is far more than a handsome face. While his looks turn heads, it’s his instinct, temperament, and work ethic that truly define him. At under a year old, Viper is already showing the qualities we value most in a Turkish Boz Shepherd. With his people, he is an affectionate lovebug who enjoys attention and connection. With livestock, he stays out day and night, following the sheep and guarding with quiet focus and purpose. He is naturally in tune with his surroundings and consistently aware of the needs around him. Standing 29 inches tall and weighing approximately 112 pounds, Viper carries himself with confidence and athleticism. He works calmly alongside sheep, goats, and calves and has already proven to be a steady, reliable presence in the pasture. Around puppies, he is gentle and attentive, earning his place as a trusted “uncle” here on the ranch. Viper has completed PennHIP and Embark testing, with OFA prelims scheduled for March. He represents the balance we strive for in our program — a Turkish Boz Shepherd with strong guardian instinct, sound structure, and a loyal, people-focused nature. We look forward to his first planned litter in 2026.

She lives full-time with a variety of free-range birds and excels beyond any dog on the ranch in calm presence, awareness, and restraint, making her truly irreplaceable.

With her people, Nova is loyal, respectful, and attentive, working closely and purposefully with her handlers. At nearly four years old and approximately 120 pounds, she combines physical strength with mental resilience and maturity. Nova has completed all health, thyroid, and genetic testing, with OFA results showing no signs of hip or elbow dysplasia. She is a purebred, registered Turkish Boz Shepherd with the American Dog Federation. Nova represents the seriousness, stability, and working instinct we strive to preserve.
