The Shar Dog (also known as the Illyrian Delta Dog or Šarplaninac) is one of the oldest and most prized breeds of the Balkans. This dog was born and bred in the Shar Mountains, in the border triangle of Albania – Kosovo – Macedonia, becoming a symbol of strength, courage and protection of livestock. It is known for its extraordinary loyalty to its owner and its natural protective instinct, which makes it suitable as a guardian dog for family and livestock.

Today, the Šarplaninac is internationally recognized as one of the most powerful guard dogs and is registered by important canine organizations such as the FCI and the UKC. In addition to its physical strength, the Šarplaninac has a stable, intelligent and disciplined character, making it a reliable companion for family activities and outdoor work.

Thanks to the dedication of Dritan Frrokut, one of the most renowned Albanian breeders, the heritage and standard of the Shar Dog has been preserved and promoted with professionalism. He has given many interviews and contributed to documentaries that show the importance of the breed, the ways of its care and breeding. The photo galleries and videos of the Shar Dogs offer a clear perspective on the character, power and charm of these dogs.

Adopting and breeding a Shar planinac is not just an act of love; it is an effort to preserve an Albanian cultural and biological heritage. Shar planinac dogs require plenty of space, quality food, constant socialization, and careful monitoring by their owners. For families and individuals who want to become part of this tradition, the Šarplaninac offers loyalty, protection, and an unparalleled companion for many years.
