For centuries Armenians have bred Gampr in the Armenian Highlands. These dogs were bred to protect livestock from predators and enemies.

They are reliable,powerful and very loyal to their owners. They walked calmly and confidently, do not bark unnecessarily. They have an interesting tactic: if you approach the herd, you will not see a single dog. However, if you come within such a distance that they have determined for themselves as the border, then the dogs will immediately appear and cordon off the whole herd.

Gampr is recognized as a national treasure of Armenia and is protected by the state. In 2011, the International Canine Union (IKU) recognized the Armenian wolfhound as an aboriginal dog breed originating in the Armenian Highlands. Later, in 2016, the Gampra was recognized by the World Cynological Alliance (Alianz Canine Worldwide).

A 6200 year old winery, Armenia 🇦🇲❤️

Near the village of Areni, in the same cave where a stunningly preserved, 5,500-year-old leather shoe was recently found, archaeologists have unearthed a wine press for stomping grapes, fermentation and storage vessels, drinking cups, and withered grape vines, skins, and seeds.
