Animals

Livestock guarding breeds protect sheep, goats, poultry, and exotic animals from predation and make good family companions. Dawydiak and Sims explain the work of the livestock protection dog, characteristics of the various breeds (Akbash, Anatolian Shepherd, Caucasian Ovcharka, Great Pyrenees, Kuvasz, Komondor and others), puppy testing and selection, training, care, health and breeding.
