Livestock Guardian Dogs
Our Dogs
Our female dogs Lyric and Rhythm are part Anatolian Shepherd and part Great Pyrenees. Our sire Cash is purebred Anatolian Shepherd. Both breeds are highly valued for their strong protective instincts, loyalty, and versatility. They are also known for their roles as livestock guardian dogs, making the mix particularly effective at guarding property and animals against predators. Their combination of intelligence, independence, and calm demeanor makes them excellent family pets as well as reliable working dogs. With a thick, weather-resistant coat, they are well-suited for various environments, from rural farms to colder climates. Their natural ability to protect and their gentle nature with loved ones make them a preferred choice for many families and farms.
Meet the Parents
Momma Lyric is 50% Anatolian Shepherd & 50% Great Pyrenees, one of four working Livestock Guardian dogs here on the farm. It is her job to help keep our herd of goats safe from coyotes & bobcats in our area. She has an unexpected side hustle as an interaction dog to a select few of our clients. She has an uncanny ability to choose who needs/wants her attention. She is all about the full body hug.
Papa Cash is 100% Anatolian Shepherd and also one of our working Livestock Guardian dogs. He’s happiest out in the pastures working with the other dogs.
This was a very intentional pairing. The Anatolian Shepherd & Great Pyrenees mix is an incredible blend of two hardworking & loyal breeds. This mix combines the Anatolian Shepherd’s protective instincts & strong guarding abilities with the Great Pyrenees’ calm, gentle nature & impressive endurance.
