Israel's national breed, the Canaan Dog is an ancient, natural breed that survived for centuries as a semi-wild pariah dog in the deserts of the Middle East before being domesticated for herding and guarding. They are alert, vigilant, and highly adaptable, combining a primitive independence with strong loyalty to their families and a keen wariness of strangers.
