	Asterel - Profile of the Breed
		The Estrela Mountain Dog or Cao Da Serra Da Estrela as the breed is known in its native Portugal, is a guarding breed who originates from the Estrela mountain region in the North of the country.
		The Estrela had to be capable of dealing with a full grown wolf and so it developed into a strong powerful dog who is supple and agile, and should show no signs of being cumbersome and slow, the breed has a fair turn of speed.
		Estrelas love human contact but they are not a demanding breed and will adapt to your household quite happily and fit in with you.
