The Central Asian shepherd dogs originated in the region of the world where you would think - Central Asia. Like a lot of breeds of dogs they were bred for a purpose to be along their human counterparts. They are protection dogs, guardians of the flock or herd and unfortunately some for fighting.
Obviously over time the Central Asian Shepherd was bred with other dogs and non-pure strains were common. Overtime more pure stock has been purposefully bred. Early Central Asian Shepherd dogs were fought against one another for an interesting reason. When Shepherds would meet their flocks or herds would interact and the strongest dog would win out. Therefore it was in the Shepherd’s interest to have the strongest dog. This was done for dominance more than sport and they weren’t allowed to truly hurt one another. When Shepherd’s would gather they would pit their dogs against each other to help breed for the more dominant traits. These dogs are still used in Russia and Central Asia as protection dogs and livestock guardians.
