We have Lila but she's a house dog - out a lot during the day unless it's rainy and cold like today. John and I did talk about the possibility of an outdoor livestock dog this evening - we plan to get a few young pigs and calves in the spring. Our dogs did catch and rough up one of the offenders today, but too late. - totally out of character for my two dogs, but I did yell "get them."I am so very sorry for your loss. I am only on an acre and my flock only gets “supervised” freerange time. Still a risk, I know. Would you consider a livestock guard dog, like Great Pyranees? Not sure how livestock guard dogs work when tbe prefator is a dog, but might be worth lookinginto if that worksfor you.
