Lol not snarky at all, thank you! And recommendations for the jumping the fence? I use the redband and he just smooshes it down. And I'm not sure if I can run electric as the ground is frozen so I cant do a ground wire until spring :/

So you feel he can still turn out to be a good LGD dog even though hes already this old? If I can keep him in the fence I can try and work with him

I kept him away from the sheep for a few days but let him observe, then I put him in. It just seems like he doesn't want to bond with the sheep at all, the fact that he keeps getting out where Maggie wants to stay in and hates coming out but would rather stay in. All sam wants to do is play...

I dont want to get rid of him but it seems more and more likely that is what will happen, and if Maggie does have pups I could just let her raise them outside. She will be giving birth around Christmas though so I'll probably let her birth in the house and then when it gets warmer she can go...

I was talking to my dog friend about a problem I'm having with me new LGD. Her is our conversation. I'm hoping someone on here can help me. I can also go into more detail if needed. I do know some stuff but am no expert, this was just a quick back story So I got a male to replace Maggie...

Ps: I was thinking nubian goats and I'm not sure on a rabbit breed yet, definitely a meat one though

Not really sure where to put this, I've already started a form on the sistersite backyeard chickens. I really want to homestead but only could afford 5 acres right now. I already raise sheep but would like to get into goats, ducks, chicken, maybe even rabbits. I already sold my cow due to...

Honest options too, hoping didn't mess up. My first ram was awesome and I don't think I'll ever find another like him

Here he is in all glory. ;)

I would like to keep purebreds that's why i ask

... Sorry everyone but I have another ram. I know the pic is a bad one but it's the only one I have. Do you all think he's a katahdin? Owner thinks he is but no papers to prove it
