He is an excellent livestock guardian, goats being his favorite. He stays in the field with the goats, sheep, cows, and donkeys. Will not bother the barn cats and does fine with other dogs. His problem is he likes to eat the chickens. He won’t come into the yard to kill them but if the free range chickens enter into the field that’s when he will get them. 5 year old intact male. $350 is firm. Text works best.
