Rain
Two Year Old Female Great Pyrenees
Rain is a badger female from our 2022 litter (she turned 2 years old in January). She has stayed on our farm as part of our working guardian pack her whole life so far.
Rain gets along with adults, children and other dogs. She is an excellent guardian with the exception of baby poultry. She has been exposed to and currently guards sheep and lambs, cows and calves, goat kids, and adult poultry including chickens, ducks, turkeys and guineas. Rain has never tested our perimeter fence or breached our property line but does not like to be enclosed in smaller paddocks, she will try to dig under the electric fence for example if she is in one of the sheep paddocks. She prefers to watch over the farm from the front porch of the house, and is very active in guarding the property and livestock. She will not welcome visitors without the family’s consent. She has been naturally reared her entire life and is intact.
We would love to transition Rain to a home where she can be a companion or continue as a guardian, as long as there are no baby poultry she can access. Rain does not bother chicks etc in an enclosure, however if they ever get out or the brooder gets left open she will kill them.

Blossom
Four Year Old Female Great Pyrenees
Blossom is a white female born in July 2019 who we purchased as a puppy. She was not naturally reared by her breeder, but has been since she arrived on our farm at 9 weeks old. She is accustomed to being both indoors and outdoors and is the sweetest most gentle dog with people and livestock. She would be comfortable in a companion or guardian home.
She is an excellent guardian with all livestock, including the tiniest baby poultry and our pet rabbit but she does not get along well with other dogs and needs to be the only dog in her new home. Blossom will also test fences and has gotten off of our property on numerous occasions, when the electric is off. She needs either a companion home where she will not be unsupervised outdoors or she needs and impenetrable perimeter. It’s possible she could do well with a Halo collar or similar, however we have not tried that with her yet.
We would love to transition Blossom to a companion home or guardian home where she will be the only dog, and care can be put in to making sure she does not wander.
