Maybe not traditional, but our Boxer,Jessie, watches over my goats and chickens. He even herds them for me. he saw me trying to get the chickens to go up before dusk one day and he chased down a chicken and held it in place with his paw until I got to her. When we first got our goat,Daisy, it took her two days to get out. Jessie found her in the woods and herded her back to the pen. he would run alongside of her and bump her with his shoulder to turn her. He has no formal training at all. He has an uncanny understanding of what I want done.

His gentleness and attentiveness to his goats truly awes me, easily amused maybe :idunno

And then his fierceness toward and threats or percieved threats awes me all over again!

Dang that Pyr Smitteness Syndrome!!! :drool :celebrate :love

He just flat out looks like a wonderful boy. He has that intelligent look about him.

Thanks everyone! :D

I truly feel blessed to have him. It's not been without challenges and frustrations, but that comes with the territory with any animal. He is a great LGD for sure :)

Wow, he is just stunning. Honestly, what a gorgeous Great Pyr! :love
Just by looking at the pictures, even without reading his description, I can tell he must be very gentle and patient with all the farm animals. He has that "look"
