The Dogs
          
GUARDIANS

We have six Great Pyrenees and one Pyrenees cross livestock guard dogs (LGDs). They run with our llamas and goats.
Our guardians help keep our herds safe against coyotes, dogs, snakes and other intruders to the pasture.

DaKoda is a friendly fellow when properly introduced to visitors, usually accompanying them around the pastures. At the same time, he is willing to back "his girls" when a predator is near. A great all-around Pyr!
