Getting any LGD breed as a "yard dog" is asking for problems. Get a mutt from a pound

I've found that working dogs are best when you have work for them, not for 'pets'

I've found that working dogs are best when you have work for them, not for 'pets' Getting any LGD breed as a "yard dog" is asking for problems. Get a mutt from a pound My distance to my closest neighbor is measured in miles. Not feet. Yard dog is a bit of a misnomer. I'll get whatever phoucing dog I see fit, but thanks for the the tip. FWIW my first and most beloved dog was a mutt from the pound. I'm not against mutts by any means, but I'm not bringing home something of unknown stock to my kids. SH, that's why I went with pups from this particular bitch. The owner knows her stuff, and knows what I want from the dogs. I'm trusting in her. And having seen the parents, I'm not worried about it. I know what you are saying though, making a heeler a housedog, or the like. I might engage in a bit of hyperbole and stoke the fire here, but I'm not retarded.

I've found that working dogs are best when you have work for them, not for 'pets' Have to agree with that..it doesn't hold true in every case, but it would certainly be a red flag..I've seen to many problem Collies which were simply frustrated at not being able to "herd".. Secondly, I would be careful about keeping "inside" and "outside" dogs as it can evolve into two "packs" with the associated problems that can bring..Again, its not something set in stone, but certainly something to be aware of..

The owner knows her stuff That's hard to believe considering she's just mating mutts of mixed breeding

Why not a Rottweiler?
If human intruders are your problem, I think that a "sheepdog" does not have the correct reputation even if they are a guard dog.
A GSD or Rotty is what people recognize as an "anti-intruder, stay the heck out" kind of dog, even if half of them aren't even guard dogs.

I confess I had to look one up, never heard of the breed before. They remind me a bit of a Tibetan Mastiff, though not as bulky. That thick coat should be good in the MT winters, so possibly a better choice than a Rott or a GSD.

Like moths to a flame. You can script threads on here before you even type out the first post, I swear to God.
They are an uncommon breed SH, was curious to see if anybody else on here had had one before. That simple.
So from what I gather the answer thus far is a resounding "no" from the 'fire.
DakotaDeer, a rotty doesn't have the hair coat to live outside here.

Yes, herding dogs generally need to have something to herd. Like heelers, collies, and some shepherds. These aren't herding dogs.

Sounds kinda like a cross between an Great Pyrenees and a Werewolf.
