Oktug What happen here is that I am little confused. Hugo indeed accepts that but following the assertion of Montana. You however, first affirmed that it is finishing the adn research opf the Kangal and then will continue the same for the Malakli and then for the other Turkish breeds (including the BSD, I gess) and that until that research is finished no one can assert that those breeds are pure or mixed. So I was expecting your opinion on that. Can you affirm now that the BSD is am ancient purebreed, even without that research? BTW, thanks a lot for your kindnes answer and also you wrote me , if i go to Turkey, I can stop by , so you can give me some adreses where are good examples of all dogs, ...so where would be that? best regards Andreita
