Which Mini Breed is Best for us?

[goats&moregoats]

@Devonviolet , I understand what @Southern by choice is talking about in not developing into their own. I recently got sibling Great Pyr from a Rescue. These two are great dogs and I am glad I got them. However, Tahoe the female is the dominant one and Yukon her brother definitely did not come into his own. It's like he waits for permission from her to do most anything, but does follow my commands with a bit of hesitation.

He is not like that when on the leash and taken out of pasture. On leash he is totally different, doing his own thing, but listens to commands from me with no issue. Just different.

Maybe working them in different pastures will help? Don't really know because I am new to LGDs but just a thought.

Pictures are beautiful, Thank you for posting them.

I'm glad you enjoyed the photos.

I'm looking forward to getting our puppies, and working with them, to see how their personalities play into their dynamic, as a working team.
