Just wondering Mona......if your Pyr is in with the horses, how does he get out of the fences?We have a Great Pyrenees. He is WONDERFUL with the animals, however, he does bark alot all night long. We have 40 acres, and that's still not enough for him, and has recently decided to wander off to the neighbors up the road. They are NOT impressed with him being there and barking all night long, so sadly now we have to keep him tied up all night long from the time it begins to get dark out.(That is when he leaves) until the next morning. Sort of defeats the purpose of having him here.They really do need to have a way to keep them confined. I thought that by having him neutered when he was just 5 months old, it would help keep him here, but it is in their breeding to roam as big a perimeter as they can. So now he is looking for a new home that can keep him securely fenced in somehow.

Our Pyr, Panda, lives in the fenced pasture with the horses so he can protect them. And even tho there ARE a couple of low areas under the fence around the waterway where he could get thru if he wanted....he seems to be content staying in HIS pasture guarding the horses.:
We have had Akin ("ah-keen") for almost 14 years - and just adopted our 2nd Anatolian, Stuart. We have sheep and chickens and, although there was supposedly a lot of coyote activity on our property before we bought the place, we haven't had one loss from predators in 7 years! Not only that, but we've had no skunks here, either! (Akin hates skunks!)
Here I am with both of them - a few days after Stuart's arrival!

What kind of dog is Akin? I am guessing that Stuart is Anatolian?
Editted -- Just saw that Stuart is Anatolian....duh me!
