Last night our Livestock Guardian Dogs Chase and Marshal responded to predators. Another camera identified the predators as 2 coyotes approaching the corrals.

All goats safe!

Early this morning we had a pack of Javelina visit the corral fence line. In this video, you’ll see our flashlight response to let the livestock guardian dogs (LGDs) know that they’ve got back-up on scene (at this point we didn’t know what was lurking).

You’ll also see our LGDs take on their distinctive postures and roles…U.S. “Marshal” taking point up against the fence to confront the javelina scout while Chase provides protection back closer to the protectees (goats/chickens)—to watch for attacks from the sides or ambush from behind.

The “all clear” signal and “thank you” sounds comes at the end of the video from the grateful goats and donkeys.

Great job Marshal and Chase!

We always try our best to give our guests the best stay possible. Sometimes things break and we need to respond with the urgency of a 9-1-1 call. That’s how we’d want it if we were the guests.

Many thanks to our wonderful guests who take the time to write a Review. We appreciate it! Here’s our latest one from The Outpost ranch house.

Video from 2 and a half years ago, our very young Livestock Guardian Dog (LGD) teammates were quickly learning on-the-job how to protect our goats and chickens from predators. In this fence line confrontation, several coyotes test the LGD pair in the middle of the night.

We’ve never lost an animal since Chase and U.S. “Marshal” arrived at El Dorado Stables.

Many of our guests have never heard of Livestock Guardian Dogs (LGD), or their protective bloodlines dating back 6,000-8,000 years, before meeting our own LGDs Chase and U.S. “Marshal”.

We also had no idea what LGDs were or what they did until losing little goat Bella almost 4 years ago to either a bobcat or coyote.

Here’s a good intro to Marshal’s breed and how he and Chase ward off predators almost nightly here at El Dorado so that no one dies….chickens, goats, dogs, coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions and bears.

We have not lost an animal to a predator since getting these amazing and selfless LGDs.

Today, less than 7000 wild cheetahs roam the earth, due in large part to human-wildlife conflicts. To prevent against livestock loss, Namibian farmers been f...
