Puppy Guardian Program
Ages: 0–7 Months
Every great guardian starts with the right foundation. Our Puppy Guardian Program is designed to introduce young LGDs to ranch life safely and positively — setting the groundwork for calm, confident, livestock-safe behavior from the start.
Program Includes (based on age and duration of program):
Early socialization with livestock (sheep, goats, poultry)
Desensitization to ranch noises, vehicles, and predator scents
Crate, leash, and boundary training
Safe livestock introductions under handler supervision
Health check, vaccinations, microchip, and GPS collar setup
Updates with photos and/or videos
Puppies leave confident, social, and ready for continued on-farm development — the first step in raising a reliable working LGD.
ROI in Action: Early-trained LGDs are proven to deliver long-term herd protection and savings, reducing losses from the very first season.
