Puppy Guardian Program

Ages: 0–7 Months | Starting at $595

Every great guardian starts with the right foundation. Our Puppy Guardian Program introduces young LGDs to ranch life safely and positively, setting them up for calm, confident, livestock-safe behavior from the start.

Our puppies grow up alongside poultry, goats, sheep, and other farm animals, learning appropriate instincts while gaining confidence under the guidance of experienced guardian dogs and dedicated caretakers. They’re not ready to guard on their own yet, but they are building the skills and mindset they’ll rely on for life.

Each puppy comes vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and is placed only with homes prepared to continue their training and support their development.

Early-trained LGDs offer long-term herd protection and can significantly reduce livestock losses over time.

Bentley’s Journey

Meet Bentley, a 4 month old Great Pyrenees puppy with the sweetest spirit and a heart that’s already been through far too much. Bentley was originally on his way to being surrendered to the Humane Society—until a kind bystander overheard the situation and stepped in to help. She brought the puppy home, hoping to give him a safe landing. But her small dogs weren’t accepting of him; they picked on him constantly, and she soon realized he was much younger and larger than she thought. Once she researched the breed and understood the commitment, she knew Bentley needed a more suitable home. We could not let this baby end up in the shelter again. He’s had a rough start, and puppies like Bentley deserve a chance to grow up safe, confident, and properly guided. Now he’s here—and he’s already stealing hearts.

Why Bentley Deserves a Chance

Bentley isn’t just a cute puppy—he’s a puppy who has been misunderstood, bounced around, and overwhelmed through no fault of his own. But he’s still hopeful, still loving, still trusting. With an experienced Pyr owner, Bentley will grow into a loyal, steady, beautiful adult who will give back tenfold the love he receives. He just needs his person.
His chance. His forever.
