Goliath’s Journey
Goliath was found as a stray—thin, exhausted, and alone. With consistent care, he showed his true nature: a calm, devoted livestock guardian. He excels with poultry and is steady with goats and sheep, even during kidding season, and has never harmed livestock.
He bonds deeply with his people and does well with other dogs when introduced slowly. Smart and respectful of fencing, he stays close to his animals and thrives with structure.
Goliath has had a difficult adoption journey. One foster couldn’t manage proper introductions, and in another home, he accidentally knocked down an older adopter during play. None of this was his fault, but it has made him cautious with strangers—especially men. Once he trusts you, though, he is gentle, loyal, and deeply committed.
