Meet the breeder
I'm Chyril W., the breeder behind Shepherds Rest Anatolians located in Carlton, OR. I preserve a rare breed of working dog that guards livestock. I import from Turkey to maintain genetic diversity & health. We occasionally breed one of our excellent working Anatolian females with the goal of producing beautiful, healthy, and sound Anatolian Shepherd Dogs with great working potential.
Q. & A. with Chyril
Why did you start breeding?
On a fluke, I adopted a puppy from my goat mentor just after Y2K started. Seeing that dog’s behavior launched me into extensive research of the breed, including studying the working dogs in their native land in remote areas! I then began importing!What makes your program special?
I’m the only person in the U.S. that has consistently been importing dogs from Turkey over the years! After showing photos of American Anatolian Shepherds to the Turkish people & having them laugh and ask what is that, I have been importing dogs that make the Turkish folks proud!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
