The original type of the breed has been maintained solely in such parts of new country Kosova where intense cattle breeding is still prevailing and where this dog still can play its original role of a guardian and protector of the cattle herds against predatory animals.[citation needed] * Albanian: Qen i Sharrit or Qeni Ilir Appearance: The illyrian sheepdog is a large, muscular, strongly-built dog. The body is slightly longer than the height at the withers, and the front legs account for approximately 55% of the height. The head is large but proportional to the body, with dark eyes. Size: The illyrian sheepdog is a robust, well proportioned dog with plenty of bone, of a size that is well above the average and with a thick, long, rather coarse coat that emphasizes the short coupled appearance. * Height in Male Dogs: 56-62cm (24 inch above) * Height in Female Dogs: 54-60cm (22.5 inch above) * Weight in Male Dogs: 35-45kg (77-99 lbs) * Weight in Female Dogs: 30-40kg (66-88 lbs) Although much larger and heavy dogs exist, the preferred size for illyrian sheepdog for male dogs is 75cm and female dogs 70cm. Coat: The coat is dense and medium in length; it can be rough or smooth. The coat is also about four inches (10 cm) long. The coat will benefit from occasional brushing. All illyrian sheepdog types are solid in colour: tan, iron grey, white or almost black. The colour need not be completely uniform, and most Sars have several different shades of the same colour fading into …

no the illyrians did not disappear before christ. the illyrians fought against the roman empire and lost around 200 years after. they were divided into two provinces but they made a pact with the romans on keeping it’s native culture alive. then the slavs came in. some illyrians stayed, others moved south. the illyrians that stayed mixed with the slavs n became croatians, bosnians, etc. the illyrians that did not want to mix came into the albani region of illyria, hence ALBANIANS.

the illyrian dog, ready to defend but not attack… sounds a lot like albanians and their instinctive nature.
