Anatolian Shepherds are an intelligent and independent breed of dog, which can sometimes make them challenging to train for inexperienced owners or those who do not have experience with working breeds. These dogs are known for being strong-willed and may be less responsive to traditional obedience training methods that rely on force or punishment. Positive reinforcement methods that reward desired behaviors with treats, praise, or playtime can be more effective in training an Anatolian Shepherd.
