Aidi
También conocido como: Atlas Mountain Dog, Chien de l'Atlas, Kabyle Dog
The Aidi, also known as the Atlas Mountain Dog, is a primitive livestock guardian dog from Morocco's Atlas Mountains. This is not a 'pet' in the conventional sense - it's a working breed with retained hunting drive and intense territorial instincts. They were bred to guard nomadic camps from jackals and wolves, and to hunt alongside Sloughis.

Entrenamiento
Aidi
- Keep sessions short (5-10 mins) and varied
- Use high-value rewards (liver, cheese) - moderate food motivation
- Harsh corrections damage bond and trigger defensive aggression
- Convince them obedience is in their best interest
Bernese Mountain Dog
- ** Positive reinforcement is the only viable path. Berners are notoriously "soft" dogs; harsh corrections or yelling will cause them to shut down or become fearful [cite: 16].
Consideraciones de Aidi
The Aidi views anything outside its family unit as a potential threat. This includes mail carriers, neighbors, and visiting children. Their default setting is suspicion, and they do not 'warm up' quickly.
High propensity for intolerance toward dogs of the same sex, emerging at social maturity (18-24 months). Can escalate to serious fighting if not managed with strict separation. A male Aidi with another male dog is a ticking time bomb.
As a survivalist breed from harsh environments, they may guard food, toys, or space with intensity. This is a genetic survival trait that makes them dangerous in households with toddlers.
They are not eager to please. If busy patrolling or investigating a scent, they will likely ignore you. They were bred to make autonomous decisions without human direction.
Consideraciones de Bernese Mountain Dog
The BMD was bred to work closely alongside farmers in the Swiss Alps, pulling carts and driving cattle. This history has created a breed that is genetically wired to be near their humans constantly. They are not independent yard dogs; they are "shadows." Leaving a Berner alone for 8+ hours a day often results in severe distress, destructive chewing, and vocalization.
While affectionate, their desire for physical contact (leaning their 100lb body weight against your legs) can be a hazard for elderly owners or very small children, despite their gentle intent.

| Aves / Reptiles | Unsafe - birds fluttering trigger chase instinct | Caution advised |

Aidi: Full predatory sequence intact (Orient-Eye-Stalk-Chase-Grab-Kill). Their hunting history with Sloughis means chase and flush instincts remain. In absence of Sloughi to finish, they may complete kill sequence on small animals. They are intelligent problem solvers but do not look to humans for permission.

Tactile Sensitivity
They show affection by leaning or sitting on your foot, but often dislike being hugged or restrained.
Metabolic Off-Switch
Like lions, they conserve energy until a threat appears. Not hyperactive pacers like Malinois.
