15 Dog Breeds That Can Defeat Wolves
Finding a dog that can stand up to a wolf, is not an easy task. There are many breeds that can probably challenge a wolf, but can they really kill a wolf on their own? If so, what breed do you think has a chance in a fight against a wolf? Do you think an Alabai is strong enough to defeat a wolf? What about a Presario Canario? If you want to find out, stick around as we count down 15 dog breeds that can defeat wolves.

Kangal

The Kangal Dog is considered the national breed of Turkey's Kangal area. Originally, the Kangal was bred to guard animals. It has a thick, pale tan or sable coat and a black mask, like an early mastiff. The breed is frequently referred to as a sheepdog, but there is a distinction to be noted in terms of its duty as a flock protector who lives with the flock to actively fend against wolves, bears, and jackals, rather than as a herding dog. Because of its protectiveness, loyalty, and tenderness with tiny children and animals, the Kangal Dog is becoming increasingly popular as a family guardian, as it treats people as its "flock" and guards them with zeal.

You can see the Kangal in action against this wolf and it handles itself quite well. I would say the Kangal has the upper “paw” in this one. In our next video, when this group of kangas attacks this wolf, the wolf has no chance and is pulled from all sides by the dogs. This next clip shows a group of kangas chases a lone wolf and they kill the wolf. Of course, they outnumber the wolf, so it does make things easier, but this dog is powerful, nonetheless.

Rotweiller

Rottweilers were originally developed to drive cattle to market. Later, they were employed to pull butcher carts. They were among the first police dogs, and they also served honorably in the war. They are, above all, well-liked family caretakers and companions. A Rottie is a lifelong friend who is kind, loyal, and intelligent! The ideal Rottweiler is calm, confident, and fearless, but never timid. He exudes a confident aloofness, and he does not make friends with just anyone. He prefers to wait and see when it comes to new people or situations.

He is quite attached to his family and frequently accompanies them around the house. I don’t think a rottweiler can take on a wolf one-on-one, but a few rottweilers can probably give a wolf a good challenge and even take it down. Wolves are wild animals and rottweilers have long been domesticated, so it does make a difference in a fight to the death.
