July 2024 Harbor Kennel Newsletter – Caucasian Shepherds with Other Farm Animals

July 2024 Harbor Kennel Newsletter

I’ve received many inquiries about whether Caucasian Shepherds can get along well with other animals. Here’s how my gentle giants protect sheep, ducks, chickens, and cattle:

💂‍♂️ Guarding sheep

Our gentle giants have thick coats that allow them to thrive in Alberta winters and protect sheep all year round.

 

 🦆 Guarding birds

Beyond their role as guardians, our Caucasian Shepherds demonstrate remarkable intelligence and adaptability. They integrate with other animals on the farm, displaying a keen ability to protect ducks and chickens.

🐮 Bond with Cattle

Here’s a photo of a female puppy from our 2023 summer litter. Now a giant at just 12 months old, she has grown up with cattle and is happy and intimate with her new friends. We appreciate the owner sending this wonderful update!

🍉 Our Breeding Delayed

We delayed our breeding plans due to travel. We now expect a litter in late autumn. This is a photo of the mom with her puppies from the 2023 litter.

Have a great summer, and see you later 🐞🐞
