This one last specie is for my Indian viewers..............................
For generations, the Bakharwal dog, also known as the Kashmir sheepdog in the northern Indian Himalayan state, has been guarding the lives of its human masters and their animals. But the Jammu and Kashmir government has no clue about the numbers of this breed whose population has dwindled alarmingly over the years. Over the centuries the Bakharwal mastiff has become a legendary animal in the state, known for its loyalty and fierce guardian spirit. The Bakharwal dog is an ancient breed that has been bred by nomadic Gujjar and Bakharwal shepherds in Jammu and Kashmir for centuries. The dog's primary use has been as shepherding beasts and companions for the Bakharwals. Recent studies have suggested that the Bakharwal dog breed is dwindling. But nobody is paying heed to it.
