Mia is going to Illinois to guard some VERY rare Soay sheep to protect them from predators.
We raise Livestock Guardian Dogs to sell. Unlike most breeders, we raise ours up so they re mostly over the puppy "highjinks" which can injure valuable animals.
and yes, I cry when they leave!
LGDs are absolutely fascinating, with inbred protective instincts that are amazing.
I had a seven week old puppy Abla come woo-wooing at me last month--VERY upset. When I walked away, she got really agitated and ran around to the back of the house,wooing and yelping. When I followed and looked into the kid pen, a pup from the younger litter had crawled in and was happily chasing the kids around and around! THAT girl goes nowhere! she is staying here for life!
