The Caucasian Ovtcharka has moderate deep-set, dark eyes.  The ears are densely covered with hair for insulation.  The hips are slightly raised from the line of the back.  The tail is profusely covered with a long feathering of heavy hair.  The forelimbs are long, straight, and densely boned.  The paws are large and heavy, with hair between the toes, providing excellent insulation and protection.  The nose is black and prominent with well opened, large nostrils. The thick, dense, weather-resistant coat has profuse feathering and is especially effective at keeping out the cold.  Puppy coats are finer then adult coats.  Colors vary from gray, fawn, tan, pied, brindle and white.  The FCI prohibits brown dogs.  In its native country the Caucasian Ovtcharka's ears are cropped short.
