"Magnificent young male Akbash dog named Marlow. Marlow's owner got him as a puppy to live with their livestock. However, they did not have a fenced property. This is a common mistake people make with Livestock Guardian Breeds — most will wander if given a chance. Much training needs to occur in order for them to understand their job and place. Marlow has now been adopted.....here are some recent pictures of him in his new wonderful life!"
