The Akbash is a large, white breed of dog that originated in Turkey. These dogs are similar in looks to Great Pyreneeses and white Labrador Retrievers. However, this muscular breed is distinct in origin. Akbashes were originally bred by shepherds to guard livestock and have protective instincts. Given their breeding history, this breed tends to be gentle with friends and family but reserved with strangers. These dogs not only have high levels of endurance, but are also very intelligent and trainable. For this reason, they are commonly used as security dogs or in search and rescue missions. As a family companion, this breed requires plenty of exercise to stay mentally and physically healthy.

Outdoorsy dogs will love hiking the national and state parks of New Mexico with their best buds at their sides. Whether you’re a resident or visitor to the “Land of Enchantment” you and your dog will love spending time in a rural B&B or taking in the sights and shopping available in one of New Mexico’s top pet-friendly areas. The Grove Café and Market in Albuquerque is a great place to start, but there are many more great places to eat and drink that welcome furry visitors on the patio or in outdoor seating areas.
The top dog breeds in New Mexico are the Labrador Retriever, the Golden Retriever and the Bulldog.
