Livestock Guardian Dogs (LGDs) are not born knowing how to protect livestock—they need time, training, and patience to develop into reliable guardians. While they have the right genetics, unrealistic expectations and lack of training often lead to these dogs being abandoned or surrendered. It takes 1.5 to 2 years of consistent effort to ensure they become trustworthy protectors. Are you ready for this commitment, even when challenges arise, like excessive barking or occasional mistakes? LGDs also work best in pairs—can you handle the responsibility of multiple dogs? These intelligent yet independent dogs require a dedicated owner. If you sell your livestock, will you stay committed to the dog? We carefully match each dog to the right home. Schedule an appointment to find the perfect LGD for your needs, and check our social media for available dogs.

RETURNS AND REFUNDS

Adopting an animal is a lifelong commitment, and we urge you to think carefully before making this decision. These dogs require time, training, patience, and resources to thrive. They will bark—a lot—to protect their territory, likely more than you expect. Please be prepared for this natural behavior.

We do not offer refunds on adoptions. If you choose to return an animal, your adoption fee will be considered a donation to help us continue our rescue efforts. If a dog or cat has been in your home for months or years, we kindly ask for an additional donation to support their continued care. While we do our best to accommodate returns, we cannot always take animals back immediately, especially if they have shown serious aggression. We appreciate your patience and collaboration in these situations.
