I would love to have some Koi some day. Thanks for sharing! Did you come up with these names are is there a breeding line like with horses where you breed to certain individuals? (sorry of that sounds stupid).

Can you please edit your post to remove the part about attacking strangers if not with owner? That statement is not a fair assessment of this breed and makes them sound like an unstable vicious dog, which they are not. They ARE protective and may attack if their owner is being threatened, but they will not just randomly attack people. They are known to be reserved around strangers and will protect their home but this is not a dog that will not launch an unprovoked attack on a stranger. They are much more intelligent than that.

I agree. If people want to post in this 'database' they need to have correct information and, more importantly, some experience with the animal profile they are submitting.

I believe those are the Japanese Names for their pattern.

Yep....very true. If people who know very little about the animal they are adding to the "database", the information it contains is pretty worthless. It looks like Duckgirl has experience with ONE Anatolian who appears to have an aggression problem if it attacks strangers. This is not representative of the breed at all.

yes....you are correct. Those are Japanese names that are descriptive in nature.
