While small dogs can be a little hard to keep up with, there’s no denying the fact that big dogs are a whole other challenge and the caucasian shepherd dog is one of the biggest ones of them all

On its hind legs, this 30-inch dog can easily match an adult human’s height but it’s its insanely thick coat that sets them apart.

they’re so strong that in a lot of parts of the world, they are called wolf killers, that’s because if they want to they can easily pin down a vicious wolf under their 180-pound weight like they’re just playing fighting.

What’s great about these dogs though is the fact that they’re remarkably intelligent and can recognize their family members. They tend to be overprotective as well

All of this also means that they’re not the easiest dogs to train and if you’re not brave enough to be the alpha in this situation you might find yourself being dragged around by a walking killing machine.
