I have 2 Great Pyrenees, one male one female and a Kuvasz female. I live in Northern Ontario, Canada and we are surrounded by bears, coyotes and the occasional wolf. We have never lost any livestock (Goats, Horses, Alpacas) in the time we've had them. Wild animals go around our property instead of through. They follow the treeline around and we see a multitude of tracks in the snow. We have witnessed them beat the hell out of a very large coyote, that was later shot. The dogs were called off before it limped off. I love my dogs!
