Akbash Dogs International (ADI) was founded in 1987 to promote and preserve the working attributes of this magnificent breed, the Akbash Dog. It’s members live in North and South America, Europe and Asia. The beautiful photographs used for these calendars come from Akbash Dog owners worldwide. It's not unusual to see photos from the U.S., Canada, Turkey and Germany in all our calendars. It's important to note that 100% of the proceeds from the sale of these calendars go to ADI's rescue fund. You can learn more about Akbash Dogs (pronounced Ah-k-bah-sh) and become a member of ADI by visiting www.akbashdogs.org. Visit akbashrescue.blogspot.com for a current list of Akbash Dogs looking for a permanent home, to volunteer or to read about those who have been successfully placed.
