Titan is an 8-year-old, 130-pound Anatolian Shepherd mix who embodies the spirit of a wise, old soul. He's a Livestock Guardian Dog through and through, possessing intelligence, independence, and a keen awareness of his surroundings. Titan knows what he likes and expects his routine to be respected, whether it's his mandatory daily walks, a clean bowl of water, or the best available treats. He's whip-smart and will gently, but firmly, remind you if his schedule is disrupted. Titan also has a special fondness for colder weather and snow, which he views as both enrichment and a tasty snack.
Ideal Home
Titan thrives in a home with a physically fenced yard where he can patrol and oversee his domain. He needs adopters who understand and respect his boundaries and personal space. While he is friendly with respectful children around 10 years and older who understand boundaries, he is not a dog who enjoys being climbed on or crowded. He is protective of his food and treats, so mealtimes should be supervised and respected. Titan would do best in a home where someone is present most of the time, such as retired adopters, those who work from home, or individuals with flexible schedules, as he experiences separation anxiety and forms strong bonds. Dog-savvy cats with safe retreat spaces would be important.
Ongoing Health

Training & Support
