The "Association of Owners, Supporters and Breeders of Karst Shepherds of Slovenia" - DLVKOS is assuming responsibility for the overall population of Karst Shepherds in Slovenia. We maintain public information system for Karst Shepherds, where you can find information about Karst Shepherds going back to 1920. In DLVKOS we place big importance to responsible ownership (early socialization) and re
sponsible breeding (lower inbreeding & informed and ethical breeders). In last years, we started to cooperate very closely with University in Ljubljana, Biotechnology faculty, in the area of genetic research and development of information system for Karst shepherds. Also we are engaged in the area of revitalizing the role of Karst Shepherds in the role of guard of livestock (Livestock Guarding Dog- LGD). Namely, in Slovenia, we try to preserve the population of wolf ,bear and lynx , and presence of guarding dog can reduce potential conflicts and damages. We also try to be in touch with breeders from other countries such as Czech Republic, Finland, German, Netherlands, Austria and others. Please help us in promotion of our Slovenian breed, by sharing a photo or information that you like, with your friends on facebook, or invite them to like the page. "Društvo ljubiteljev in vzrediteljev kraških ovčarjev Slovenije" - DLVKOS skrbi za populacijo kraševcevs programi promocije in vzreje. Vodimo javno dostopen informacijski sistem za kraške ovčarje, kjer so vnešeni kraševci od leta 1920. V DLVKOS posebej poudarjamo pomen odgovornega lastništva (pravočasna socializacija, pogodbe ob oddaji mladiča, izobraženi vzreditelji) in odgovorne vzreje kraševcev (čim manj inbridinga). V zadnjem času intenzivno sodelujemo z Biotehniško fakulteto na področju genskih raziskav in razvoja informacijskega sistema. Prav tako vodimo projekt ponovnega uvajanja kraševca v funkcijo pastirskega psa - varuha čred. Društvo ima okoli 180 rednih članov. Poskušamo vzdrževati stike z lastniki kraševcev v tujini (Češka republika, Finska, Nemčija, Nizozemska, Avstrija....) Prosimo pomagajte promovirati našo slovensko pasmo, s tem da delite kakšno informacijo ali sliko, ki vam je všeč, z vašimi prijatelji na facebooku, oziroma jim priporočite našo facebook stran.
