Our Upcoming 2026 litter!

We are thrilled to open up our waitlist for our upcoming 2026 litter. These litters have been in the making for over 5 years and we are excited to provide Canadians with reliable, quality, and well-tempered Anatolian Shepherds. We are an ethical breeder that has been raising Anatolians for over 9 years. We have sold and prepared our puppies for both livestock guardian and family protector homes by raising the puppies with both livestock and children from birth. They will come CKC-registered, guaranteed hip/elbow dysplasia free, microchipped, vet-checked, vaccinated, and dewormed, and with a health passport.

The dam (Apex A.D. Northern Sure Shot, aka Daisy Mae) is a beautiful brindle with outstanding confirmation. She is AKC registered (soon to be CKC registered) and PennHIP tested. We will be OFA (hips, elbows, thyroid) testing her this fall. Daisy Mae is athletic and always eager to please. She is an excellent guardian and tends to follow the sheep around the pastures.

The sire (Shepherds Rest Wild, Wild West, aka Wiley) is a large fawn weighing 180 pounds and measuring 31 inches at the shoulder. He is AKC and CKC registered and PennHIP and OFA tested. Wiley is a happy and confident dog. He brings proven Turkish lines to Canada, as several of Wiley’s grandparents were imported directly from Turkey.
