Turkey's national dog, the Kangal is a powerful livestock guardian breed renowned for having one of the strongest bite forces of any domestic dog. They are calm, controlled, and highly protective of their charges, working independently to assess threats and respond proportionally — traits that make them outstanding guardians but challenging pets for inexperienced owners.
