No votes yet
The breed originated during the 1930s by the crossing of German Shepherds with Russian bred dogs to produce an animal more suitable for the army.
The East European Shepherd breed was developed from the German Shepherds bought to Russia at the beginning of the century. Starting from 1904 the breed was used as a police and nursing dog.
The East European Shepherd was created from German Shepherds, whom were mixed with local northern breeds, molosses and some other breeds.
The East European Shepherd is probably the most intelligent of the Russian guard dogs (Caucasian dog, Central Asian dog, Russian Sheepdog, Russian Terrier, and Moscow dog).
