Registered Boer Goats ~ AKC Great Pyrenees 

Meet the Outlaw Josie Rose.  She is  quite possibly one of the smartest LGD's I have seen.  She is very in tune to everything going on in her pasture...both on the ground & in the air.  She will see buzzards gliding over head and is immediately on the alert.  It's amazing how these dogs are able to determine what could be a potential threat to their goats.  I have seen herons and geese fly over and she barely looks at them.  

Josie patrols the pastures while Belle stays with the herd.  I could (and do) sit and watch them work for hours.    

The picture below of Josie was taken right before sunset. She was listening very intently to the coyotes in the distance starting to yip & gather for some carousing.

Her expression seems to dare those coyotes to be dumb enough to try & get close to her goats!   

Any landscaping will do  when a Pyr wants to make a bed in it.  That's ok because we love Sterling and he faithfully watches over us.  

We have a pond on the back of our farm that can be seen from my kitchen window. Early one morning several years ago I could see two or three coyotes along the bank of this pond.  All of the sudden out of nowwhere a huge ball of white came flying out of the woods and ran right  through the middle of these trespassers!  Sterling was out doing his morning patrol and he was not about to allow  these mangy coyotes  wander through his domain.
