    Livestock guardian dogs

    Amen and amen. Thank you! I live in a rural area and the number of LGD's showing up in dog shelters is breaking my heart. Too many people setting their dogs up for failure because they don't understand the breed. I have 2 GP's and I tell people who ooh and aah....do your homework, research and...

I have seen them go...

    I beg to differ. While the jury is still out on how my two will react loose with my flock there is no doubt in my mind that nothing is going to mess with the chickens in their pen without us knowing about it.
