The Himalayan Sheepdog is the finest breed found in the foothills of the Himalayas from Kashmir to the Northeast and Nepal. They are world-renowned as a shepherd and a guard dog to protect cattle, including sheep and goats, from poachers. The Himalayan Sheepdog is very similar to the Tibetan Mastiff.
Sheepdogs are also known in different parts of the Himalayas by names like Bhote Kukur, Bhutia, Bhotia, Gaddi and Bakarwal. Usually they are very calm and friendly but they do not lack strength and courage. Sometimes Bhutia dogs also clash with dangerous animals like leopards. Sheepdogs are particularly well-known for their loyalty. The Indian Postal Department has also specially honored Bhutia dogs through a postage stamp.
