Khonch Nokhoi have been Mongolia's livestock guardians for hundreds of years. They also guard monasteries, fodder reserves, and people's homes. The best picture I have of a true Khonch Nokhoi was taken by my friend Zeev. The dog pictured on this page is Bawgai, which means Bear in Mongolian. Bawgai was the beloved guardian of Amarbayasgalant monastery and is seen here with the lams on the morning of the Lunar New Year. He is not fully matured yet in these pictures. Sadly, Bawgai was poisoned by what the lams assume to have been a jealous person or a thief. As a gift to the monastery, Bawgai was a very fine example of Khonch Nokhoi, considered one of the best of his breed.
獒 gi mongol oor yu gedeg bili?
獒在我们新疆南路土尔扈特叫GARZ ，藏獒叫tanggad garz .
五世森勤活佛多布栋策愣车敏1914年从西藏那曲地区迈进了体壮毛密的153头牦牛和少量的藏獒。
现在巴音郭楞自治州巴音布鲁克的牦牛已达到几十万头，藏獒却几乎绝种了。
以前听老人说成年的大藏獒根3岁的牛一样大，不果我没有亲眼见过。
