🐑 About This Channel:
I'm documenting my journey as a sheep farmer—sharing real-life insights, lessons learned, and strategies for building a sustainable, income-generating farm business. Whether you're a beginning farmer or exploring how to turn your livestock into profit, you're in the right place.
🐕 In This Video:
We dive into the role of farm dogs—specifically livestock guardian dogs (LGDs) and, to a lesser extent, herding dogs—and how they protect our flock, contribute to our grazing system, and impact our farm budget.
If you’re researching guardian dogs, livestock protection, farm security, or non-lethal predation control, this video offers practical insights from our working sheep farm.
