Loving the herd life
Today as I was leisurely sipping my coffee and gazing out the kitchen window, I noticed my two Great Pyrs (Cleatus and Beauhunk) both chasing my lambs.
I began yelling out the window for them to stop, but, of course, they ignored me.
Cleatus was able to get one of the sheep separated from the rest and began chasing it trying to grab its tail.
The poor lamb was running full speed.
Just then my Kangal Dog (Business) ran over and body-slammed Cleatus, putting himself in between Cleatus and the lamb.
Im not sure if he meant to body-slam him or if Cleatus was running so fast that he ran into Business.
Needless to say Business stopped Cleatus from chasing the lamb and stood next to Cleatus until Cleatus wandered off to rest.
Business decided to lay down and enjoy a bone.
All three dogs are only 9 months old, so they have a LOT of puppy to get out of their system.
I have another Kangal female that is almost 6 months old named Chula.
All four dogs are currently in the same pasture with the lambs until we can put up some more fencing.
- Bad Cleatus -
- Business with his lambs -
- Business enjoying his bone -
(The cat litter pails are their feeding stations. I keep their feed bowls elevated since they enhale their food so fast.
It keeps them far enough apart so they don't steal each other's food or fight over the food.)
- Chula and Business -
