    Rutting behavior questions?

    I have some questions regarding my little goat. First of all, I don't know much about goats. I bought this guy on impulse because he was so friendly and I've always liked goats. After I brought him home he was awesome. He acts exactly like a dog, free roams our property, rides in the rhino, and...

    Basset Hound LGD...

    Ok, not really, but he does kinda help out with the goat by making the poop disappear LOL. Not much of a useful dog, but he's a great pet.

    I filled out the application for the rescue place. Waiting to hear back. They don't communicate well, which bugs me. After researching LGD's, I'm going to take my time and find a good one, preferably two. Probably pups so I can know their history and teach them how I want. I need dogs on...

    I think I'm going to pass on this dog. I have nothing against mutts or mixes, had a lot of good ones, but I don't want to spend several hundred dollars on one either. She is a sweetheart and I like her, and would take her, but not at the price the guy wants. Guess I will keep looking. Maybe I'll...

    I believe the guy said he was downsizing and getting rid of his goats so he doesn't need dogs. He apparently has more than one dog, but was keeping others as pets. Haha she is cute and does look awfully friendly and kissable. I am looking for a LGD to patrol the property for predators and to...

    I surely don't want any kind of border collie. I knew a guy who had those and they are not for me.

    I noticed the fence between her & the birds. He said she stays with goats, and I can see a goat house in the picture. I dunno. I guess I will know more later today. I'm a little more skeptical now.... She is cute .Any thoughts on what she may be? Glad I posted on here, because I have no idea...

    Here are some pictures of her. She's not quite a year old. That's a 4' fence she's propped up on in the one picture. I have no idea about what the different LGD breeds should look like, so if anyone has any input, feel free to speak up. As I said, the guy says she's a great pyr/maremma cross. I...

    haha I agree. A friend of mine tried to adopt a lab from a lab rescue place and he said the questionaire was crazy. They wanted extensive financial & credit info and all sorts of crap. He laughed at them and left. I know they have to verify that you can take care of the dog, but isn't the...

    Oh, I have NOoooooo problems with predators when the leopard dogs are out. They will kill, or at least try to kill, any land based predator they can catch. The problem is, they are not exactly "livestock safe" I could probably make them stand down if I stood by, but left unattended they would...

    I have been looking up the great pyr's and maremma online and they seem to look fairly similar- white or blonde-ish colored. The dog for sale here is black with a little white. He says its a rare color? Is that correct? In all my looking I can't find a black one. Not to say it doesn't exist, I...

    Thank you for the input. It's very helpful. I was going to call about the Anotolian today, but got busy. In the mean time I ran into a guy I know at a jiffy store this afternoon who has a Great Pyrenees/Maremma for sale. She is about 10 - 11 months old. He has raised her from a puppy and she is...

    I have a few questions and looking for some opinions and insight. I have come across a nice looking Anotolian. He is fairly local (couple hours away) A rescue group has him in a foster home. They pulled him out of a kill shelter and do not know his history. They say he is super sweet, good with...
