What is kuchi dogs?

Kuchi dogs are a breed of Afghan shepherd dogs that have been used for centuries as herding and guarding dogs by the Kuchi people, a nomadic tribe in Afghanistan. They are also known as Afghan shepherds or Afghan hounds. Kuchi dogs are a large and muscular breed, with a strong, athletic build, and they are often used to protect their owners' herds and flocks from predators. They have a thick, shaggy coat that comes in a variety of colors, and they are known for their loyalty and intelligence. Kuchi dogs are highly valued in Afghanistan, and they are considered to be an important part of the country's cultural heritage. However, they are not recognized as a formal breed by most international kennel clubs, and their genetic purity is often not well-documented. As a result, there is some variation in physical characteristics and temperament among different Kuchi dog populations.
