Exercise and Space: Akbash Dogs are large and active, requiring plenty of space to roam and regular exercise to maintain their physical and mental health. Ensure they have a secure, fenced yard and take them on daily walks or runs.
Socialization and Training: Begin socialization and obedience training early to help manage their protective instincts. Expose them to various people, environments, and other animals to foster a well-rounded temperament.
Grooming and Health Care: Brush their coat weekly to manage shedding and keep it clean. Regularly check their ears, teeth, and nails, and schedule routine veterinary check-ups to monitor their health and prevent common breed-specific issues.
