The Serra da Estrela Story.
The Cao da Serra da Estrela also known as the Estrela Mountain Dog is an ancient dog breed working with integrity in a modern world.
The character of the Serra da Estrela was shaped over the centuries by solitude, freedom, companionship and responsibility towards the shepherd and his flock. He was born in the adversity and grandeur of the mountains that gave him his name. This heritage made him the special dog that he is today.
