Livestock guardian dog Lily is intense and focused. She also has a secret weapon. 

Makes you wonder what else is possible in the animal world.❤

Pure willpower can count for a lot, it seems. 😁

Thank you, i get Alpscas & Llamas confused. Too old

Did you catch the Admiration Society's Alpaca's Stares As Luna Sauntered Past?🌿😺

You mean she’s not a goddess?

I'm loling at this at the moment lol 1:55

She reminds me of my cat Ruby. She even puts my huskies in place.

Squad goals

Sorry for ur loss. Stay strong💪🏼

So sorry, but you will see her in Heaven.

You lost your sweet pup at only 5 years?! That’s a tragedy! I’m sending my heartfelt condolences for the loss of dog. 😢 She was so blessed to have you as her family. I can tell from the language in your comment that you loved her so much. She is your guardian angel, now. 🐾❤🙏

Somebody gifted your ranch with an amazing cat! She is where she is supposed to be, and in her element Their loss your gain😻

I know they're good cause the LGDs are always on it

I love her, she’s badass

I thought the alpaca sounded like a squeaky toy! My dog would've thought so too & come running!

@MyStonefish Well yes, but no matter what tradition you follow there are always the thought process that men are the muscle and women the advisors. And we do make good advisors! We just get frustrated and yell and complain when we think the Muscle side won't listen to the Advisor side! 😁

@@kimberlywalker_ as the “adviser” we should already know that yelling, screaming and getting frustrated doesn’t make the muscle listen any better. Muscle needs a soft hand and firm words. We are the finesse behind their force. Talk softly, give the muscle time to cool down if needed, re approach the issue with a calm head, the muscle always comes around.

@hardtogetnamehere im mexican and all that goes out the door when it comes to Mexican women (no offense) lol us mexican men have tough hides cause we get yelled at all the time. I grew up with tough women my whole life now im 38 and have 5 females in the house and the only other testosterone in the house is my boy maximus (gsd).

I laughed so hard at this politically incorrect comment thread. 😂😂😂

Yup, you can't beat the females. Female working dogs are serious, don't fool around, and they're extremely loyal. Boss bitches. Fierce...🤣👍👍😹 But in response to the convo about males vs females... This is the true key... The quickest way to get the males to do what you want or to do anything... is to plant the seed and let them think they came up with the idea. If its their idea, they hop to it in a flash! But if we females fight, argue it with them. The resistance prevents it from happening. Trust me I know. I've dealt with them all my life. I've argued and done the whole trip. Only to find within a week they did what was my idea. They don't like females being more intelligent than them! 🤣😂🤔😒 So plant a seed or make a soft suggestion. Watch what happens. Make an experiment out of it. You'll be amazed!! 🤣😂 Humans now, not dogs... Lmk how it works out!

Me too❤❤

Indeed.They are simply spectacular.

I don't know how this channel ended up on my algorithm, but I'm obsessed.

Jimmy and Clarence for the win, with Raventree Ranch neck and neck! I love them both!

Great idea! But it might likely need infrared capabilities for decent video. I like your idea though!

Good for you,SusanM- you found an awesome way to deal with depression.Great tip for those dealing with depression to try!

@@lindamclennan8645 thanks!❤

I have this also, & this is my go to. ❤ 😍 💖

Hi Susan, 🙂 Your comment about mental health & depression hit home with me. I have a couple of things in my bag of tricks that I go to when fighting that old adversary. One is watching anything that makes me laugh. Another is watching wonderful videos about animals. That's why I hope you'll search HERD elephant orphanage here on RU-vid. I think you u would love to get to know the individual animals from this unique herd of 17 rescued elephants. The youngest is a recently rescued orphan roughly 8 months old. He was found wandering alone with no sign of his family 4 months ago. Before that, the most recent orphan adopted by the HERD was Khanyisa, a sweet little albino calf with terrible wounds from the snare she was caught in. It made it hard for her to drink, part of her ear was severed or nearly severed, and all her wounds were infected and ridden with maggots. They nursed her back to health, and successfully integrated her into the HERD. She has grown up a lot, & unless you get a look at her in (or coming out of) the water, you probably won't even notice she's pink. Elephants usually apply mud or sand to their bodies to protect them from the sun & from biting flies and parasites. But remove that layer of dermal protection and you have a sweet little, pale-eyed pink elephant! Phabeni (the newest little rescued calf) has been a quicker intro because he had no serious injuries. I bring all this up because so many of us who comment there remark on the positive effect it has had on our mental health. Something about them is so very calming, and you will always feel better after watching one of those videos. It will measurably lower your blood pressure and heart rate too! An added bonus. :^) I hope you'll check it out sometime if you happen to see this. I think you would like it. Take care, Susan. G.B.B. ❤🐘❤

LGD's aren't trained,it's instinctive/in their dna for 1000's of years.They have to be introduced/harmoniously assimilated into flock/herd.

I agree! You don’t really train an Anatolian. They are bred for guarding livestock. In fact in Turkey they live with very little human contact. They roam freely. They are extremely intelligent, very self sufficient and figure out on their own what to do.

Of course with the help of the ancient queen! Cats are so smart and amazing!

Thank you

Thank you! It’s a work in progress. Hoping we improve over time! We are committed to doing longer and longer vids. Getting some new equipment soon

LOL! That’s exactly what I asked. Unless they have changed their laws, Turkey doesn’t allow these dogs to be exported. Apparently “infidels” where coming to Turkey, taking the best breeding stock and establishing new lines, especially in Europe. I don’t remember when it was outlawed, but the vet I took my dogs to to get evaluated, was astonished when I told her where I got them and their story. She showed me her dogs descendants which she had gotten from Turkey directly in the 70-80’s and said my dogs were just as nice as her pups. Fyi: the reason my dogs were smuggled out of Iraq was because they were going to kill them. The villagers didn’t like pintos, which is what my male was, I don’t know about the girls, they were both fawns/black masks, but the person who gifted them to me saved 5 puppies and ended up with 3 himself.

You have a great friend Brenda.
