Male lgd is peeing on the sheep!

Oh, these dogs will be the death of me, I swear. Now our male is peeing on the sheep. I'm gonna guess its to say "these are mine".
If this guy isn't BARKING his brains out ALL darn night, hes doing this. What a crazy dog this is!!!!

I have had male dogs do the same thing to animals and other dogs. In their case the reason was they were aggressive dogs and knew they were not allowed to attack the animal or other dog unless it was in defense. They chose that way to vent their feelings. May not be the reason in your case as your dog was bred to protect and mine was bred to attack.

It was definetly a funny site this morning. He walked up to him, sniffed, like the ram was a tree, and boom, let loose!! Just crazy. The ram just turned and looked, and went about his business. I think it warmed him up, lol.

It could be a LOT worse

I was crouched down in the corner one day repairing a broken fence wire and ....well...you can guess the rest.


I'm glad he thinks I'm worthy
