Mine sleep with, share food with and guard 200 plus chickens, 12 turkey, 20 geese, pair of Egyptians, 6 swans, 4 emu, 2 crowned cranes, horses, mini horses, mini cows, fainting goats,a mini donkey, llamas and alpacas .... I don't trust my one female with the peafowl or my pheasants.... But as long as they are in a pen she won't bother them.... Funny she's fine with everyone else. My two older males I can trust with almost anything.... He did kill a button quail once, but not on purpose.... He squished it. The two puppies are good with almost everything....kind of like the female, chickens -bantams, silkies, geese biting them..... Don't care, just wild smelling stuff. Not all are good with birds, not even when raised with them. Out of my litter of nine, half made good dogs with birds, others better with larger animals. Their are other LGDs but I did not have luck with Anatolians or crosses. GPs seem to be good with all types of animals. They can be very hard headed... As they are bred to be self thinking, they LOVE to dig, and they bark a lot as a warning to predators to stay away. But they are great with kids and animals and love their family.
