The Bankhar dog (Buryat: хотошо, Mongolian: банхар, Russian: Бурят-монгольский волкодав), is a landrace livestock guarding dog. Originally bred by the Buryat people, their success contributed to their spread across Buryatia and Mongolia and into adjacent regions before they were nearly annihilated in the mid-20th Century.[1] Bankhar dogs are prized for their intellect and perseverance even in hostile weather conditions.[2][3] They are loyal and affectionate with their families, but formidable against intruders, including humans, wolves, eagles and snow leopards.[3][4][2]
