Sarplaninac Puppies For Sale

The Sarplaninac is a hard-working who loves herding and acting as guard dog and will take great care of protecting their territory. They take their jobs seriously, and although they are calm and gentle with their families, don't expect a snuggler, since these dogs need their independence. Full-grown, they typically weigh 45-80 pounds and stand 21-24 inches tall.

Sarplaninacs are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. These hard working dogs are bred for protection, and they are skilled at rounding up flocks, family members, and whoever belongs in their territory. These dogs are suspicious of everyone, though, so they won't take kindly to strangers. They're relatively quiet and don't bark much.

The Sarplaninac leads a very active lifestyle and requires plenty of physical activity to drain their energy. Play or running free on a farm will take care of this need, but they still need to walk or jog occasionally. The Sar isn't meant for apartment life, especially considering their heavy, weather-proof coats. Overall, their exercise needs are very high.

The Sarplaninac has a long, thick coat that is bushy in appearance. They come in colors of gray, white, black, or tan, and can be solid or blended. They require simple grooming and brushing regularly once a week. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.

Sarplaninacs are best suited for a rural property or home with a large yard. The Sar loves the outdoors, and prefers to make his bed out there as well. They are moderately trainable with consistent effort.
