Summary

About Landseer
The Landseer is a giant, black‑and‑white water rescue and companion dog, calmer and more athletic than a Newfoundland. Gentle, people‑oriented and usually excellent with children, it needs space, regular grooming, steady training, and active owners willing to handle drool, mud and shedding.
About Kangal Shepherd Dog
Ancient Turkish livestock guardian: large, powerful, calm and observant, deeply loyal to family, reserved with strangers. Needs secure space, early socialisation, firm but fair training, and steady exercise. Best for experienced owners who respect its independence and guarding drive.
