In our country, this breed has long been called "Turkmen or Central Asian Shepherd Dog." Alabai - that is how the Turkmen and Tajik shepherds themselves called the dog. The breed was bred several thousand years ago, and it came to us almost in its original form. The terracotta figurine found in Altyn-tep, a Bronze Age settlement on the territory of modern Turkmenistan, depicts Alabai, and the found animal bones dating from about the 2nd millennium BC indicate that even then people knew how to stop the tails and ears of representatives of this breed.
