Livestock and Guard Dogs

Just a list of research on livestock and guard dogs for our farm.

 

Good options in Florida include:

  • Great Pyrenees - livestock guard dog, most popular in the U.S., gentle with people, kids, other dogs, etc..
  • Pyrenean Mastiff - closely related to the Great Pyrenees
  • Anatolian Shepherd Dog - shepherding dog (obviously) - a little more scared of strangers, socialize more difficult
  • Akbash - ( used by Grass-Fed Homestead )
