Povestea lui Franco, Ciobănescul Mioritic care a devenit CAMPION MONDIAL! 🇷🇴🏆

In this special edition of the DC Anima show, we have as our special guest Franco, a gorgeous two and a half year old Romanian Shepherd Mioritic, freshly returned from Italy with the supreme title of WORLD CHAMPION (Best of Breed)! 🏆🐕 Along with Mr. Dumitrescu, the man at the end of the leash, we debunk the biggest myths about this extraordinary breed (including the famous legend of the bear fight) and discuss what the temperament of a Mioritic really means: a huge dog, but incredibly gentle and calm, loyal to the family and a born protector of children. Find out in the interview what the logistical steps are to travel to Europe with a large dog, how to properly groom such an impressive coat, what international judges analyze in the ring and what are the major mistakes that many Romanians make in raising this heritage breed. Watch the show to discover why the Mioritic Shepherd is considered "the dog everyone should have in their yard".
