Caring for a Canaan Dog

Health

Generally a healthy, hardy breed; some inherited eye conditions like progressive retinal atrophy can occur.

Nutrition

A quality diet in measured portions; no unusual dietary needs.

Grooming

The short-to-medium double coat needs weekly brushing, more during shedding season.

Training

Early socialization matters given natural wariness toward strangers; intelligent and trainable with a consistent, patient approach.

About the breed

The national dog of Israel, a primitive breed shaped by natural selection in the desert before being developed for herding and guard work.

Alert, adaptable, and naturally wary of strangers, Canaan Dogs are quick learners with strong territorial instincts.
