Unlike Western pet breeds, traditional Turkish livestock guardian dogs (LGDs) are independent thinkers. To make your kopek "better," you must respect its genetics. These dogs were bred to make decisions without human input while protecting flocks from wolves and bears. Forcing a kopek into submissive obedience training often backfires. Instead, focus on mutual respect and boundary-setting.
