On this page
I have posted some links, video and reading material about guardian dogs in general and some about Co- Existance with wildlife.

HERE is an article I wrote for the Alberta Sheep Breeders Symposium on raising and training LGD
Scroll down until you find the article:

Videos:

• For those who have no clue what LGD do this video will make it very clear: Sam and Ralph
•  Ranchers Using LGD
• How to behave when you meet LGD
• Georgian Shepherd Dogs
• Roman Carpathian Shepherd Dog
• Maremmas Protecting Pinguins

Articles and websites:

Some of these articles encourage no or very little human contact with the young pups. I disagree with this method of raising pups, however other information is valid.
