According to Bangalore Mirror, a breeder in Bengaluru recently paid a staggering Rs. 20 lakh for a Caucasian Shepherd dog. The man, Satish, runs a kennel in Bengaluru and serves as president of the indian Dog Breeders' Association. From a breeder in Hyderabad, he purchased the dog, a rare breed in India. The name "Cadabom Hayder," which honours Satish's Kennel, has been given to the Caucasian Shepherd. According to a story in the Bangalore Mirror, Hayder, who is 1.5 years old, recently took part in a trivandrum Kennel Club event and another dog show, winning 32 medals for the best dog breed.
"Hayder is really large and incredibly amiable. He is currently residing in my air-conditioned home, he informed the newspaper. It is well known that the breeder purchases pricey dog breeds. Satish bought two Korean mastiffs for Rs. 1 crore each in 2016, making him the first person in india to own them. The dogs were his imports from China. He had picked them up at the airport in a Rolls Royce and a Range Rover.
The Caucasian Shepherd is a guardian breed that is indigenous to Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Ossetia, Dagestan, and parts of Russia. It is described as fearless, bold, and friendly. According to the American Kennel Club, the breed has served a variety of purposes over the years, including guarding cattle from wolves and other large and small predators, as well as protecting lands from trespassers. A fully grown Caucasian Shepherd stands between 23 and 30 inches tall and weighs between 44 and 77 kilogrammes. It has a 10- to 12-year lifespan.
