Description: Origin and physical characteristics of the three major Ovcharka breeds.
Alisa's puppies (born on January 23, 2004). The word "ovcharka" (often spelled "ovtcharka", or "owtcharka"; pronounced "uhf-'chAr-ka") is a Russian word meaning something between "livestock guardian dog", "shepherd's dog" and "sheepdog". In the Russian language "ovcharka" is used as a suffix in the names of many working breeds, including those that are not native to Russia, such as the German Shepherd Dog (nemetskaya ovcharka), Belgian Sheepdog (bel'giyskaya ovcharka), and many others. This may be somewhat confusing to a non-Russian reading Russian publications on dog breeds. The Ovcharkas native to Russia and/or the countries of the former Soviet Union include the following four breeds: the Caucasian Ovcharka (also known as: Kavkazskaya Ovcharka; Caucasian Shepherd or Sheepdog), Central Asian Ovcharka (other names include: Sredneaziatskaya Ovcharka; Central Asiatic Ovcharka; Central Asia Shepherd Dog; Middle Asian Ovcharka; Mid-Asiatic Sheepdog), South Russian Ovcharka (also referred to as Youzhnorusskaya Ovcharka or South Russian Sheepdog), and the East European Ovcharka.
