This Dog Stopped Our Predator Problem
Meet Rasputin — our Central Asian Shepherd livestock guardian dog and chief of security here at 2 Mac’s Ranch. In this video, I talk about why we decided to get a livestock guardian dog, the predator problems we were facing with coyotes, and how Rasputin became one of the most important members of the ranch. Rasputin has protected our animals for years and has become an incredible guardian, companion, and working dog. If you’ve ever wondered whether a livestock guardian dog is right for your farm, ranch, or homestead, this video should help answer some questions. Let me know in the comments what kind of dog you have (or are thinking of getting) and which predators you deal with where you live.
