livestock guardian dogs to guard sheep.
so your talking about dogs that simply guard sheep and do not herd the flock ? that all makes sense i was thinking of herding the flock and prey drive is needed for that. our vets secratary has some type of dog i'll have to ask her what breed it is, that has lived with there sheep since it was a pup. we have lots of cyotes around here and many of the people that have sheep have 1 or 2 llamas in with them i heard this is to deter the cyotes i dont know if thats true or not.
