Can Anatolian Shepherds live in apartments?

Yes, Anatolian Shepherds can live in apartments, but it’s likely not an ideal setup for most individuals of this breed, and you’ll need to make sure you can accommodate their needs. If you plan on adopting an Anatolian Shepherd and live in an apartment, it’s imperative to provide them with plenty of opportunities to be in nature. 

They aren’t a high-energy breed, but they have been bred for centuries to spend their lives accompanying goats or sheep in pastures. They do best in rural settings where they can spend plenty of time outside in a calm and natural environment. Long decompression walks in the woods and trips to more remote parks will help an Anatolian Shepherd feel more comfortable with life in a city. 

Realistically, though, you may want to consider other breeds that are more likely to thrive in an apartment or social city setting, such as well-socialized, small breeds.
