Delete Fred came to our farm with his brother Barney to protect our over 150 goats. Barney is content living with the goats but Fred is not. He kept escaping to come and play with our young child and other farm dog. He is not cut out to be a goat protection dog but he is cut out to be a great pet! He is now living in the house and doing great. House training is going great with no accidents so far. He is also working on leash manners and is doing well. He is cautious at times and I have to pull him! (For example he stops walking as we get near the road and will not go any farther) He does however seem to get over his apprehensions after he experiences something once or twice. He is happy and playful and good with other dogs. We have a few cats around and he is ok with them too. We would be thrilled to see him find a loving home. We did trade some expensive goats for him and his brother so will ask for $100.00. He is mostly white with a subtle balack mask around the eyes.

My Godthat is Samson all over again!!...Some LGD's just aren't cut out for the job...one of the reasons I brought Samson home...I could see even then he wasn't going to gaurd anything & I had horrible visions of a farmer just putting a bullet through his head because he was a waste of dog food...Harsh I know but it happens...I hope & pray that Fred gets a companion home that he deserves!
