Hi, this is a wonderful breed that works well with livestock. If your nearby breeder told you the parents of the pumps kill chickens give elsewhere. Their are many great AKC breeders out there that breed for this particular disposition. I have 2 Great Pyrs. 1 is with my geese everyday of his life since he was 4 months old. He has never harmed a feather on their heads. He removes all other critters from their area. He is worth his weight in hold and it took him a minute while he was young but Geeat Pyrenees want to work with you and then you can leave them on th their own ti do their job. My new Pyr is a rescue and us nearly 2 he us very playful and doesnt understand the job yet but I have the time for him. If you get a Pyr get them young and from a breeder who has working parents. Preferably featherhead guardian. They are an amazing dog and really want to help. Guarding is innate and you have to show them while they are young what needs guarded from what.
