How can you keep your livestock safe 24/7? Learn about how important farm guardians are and which animals make the best protectors. I was interviewed on the local 5pm news about the dog attacks kfoxtv.com/news/local/east-el...
Due to the recent circumstances, this is a topic that I feel needs to be talked about more. In December my farm was attacked and we had several tragic deaths. The details of that are on my Instagram post. Interesting timing as well regarding this video, since a local petting zoo was recently attacked and they lost 10 animals with many more injured. All these deaths are not because of wild animals. I hope this video can help people understand what we farmers deal with in everyday life as well as help to provide a solution for other farms that are being hit. And after watching this video I hope people understand why responsible pet ownership is so important for everyone in the community.

Thank you for watching my videos! This channel is dedicated to animal education and improving the lives of captive animals.
Here’s little about me!
My name is Meghan Arriola and I live in Texas with my husband Jaime, where I dedicate my time to taking care of exotic and domesticated animals on my farm. We run a rescue and sanctuary for animals like alpacas, birds and reptiles. I do animal education presentations for groups and schools. Our alpacas also do events where we are able to teach people about these unique animals. I have used service dogs for medical needs for over 10 years and I am an advocate for assistance animals and mental health awareness.
I am an animal educator that brings science related ideas to an audience from around the world by presenting fun and interesting topics in a family friendly way. Animals touch our lives in unique ways everyday as simply being our pets and companions, but how can we make their lives equally as special now that they live in captivity? My KZbin channel and blog explore ways to meet this goal by tackling things like animal behavior, human-animal relationships and veterinary medicine. Animal science is a great way to teach people of all ages that education is fun and nerdy is cool.
My previous animal related work experience includes working in veterinary clinics, private zoos, training horses and volunteer work in wildlife rehabilitation, rescue/foster/adoption programs and therapeutic horsemanship for children with disabilities.
When I am not working with animals, I am working at the health care clinic owned by my husband Jaime and I, where we provide services to low income, minority neighborhoods. We have been on the frontlines fighting covid19. I also have a passion for art and I am an award winning painter and photographer and published author. I am naturally very introverted but I am extroverted about sharing my passions and doing my part to make the world a better place!

I hate it when irresponsible dog owners let their dogs run loose or don't properly set up their property to contain their animals. In the city, loose dogs threaten other dogs, cats, children and pedestrians. As well as running the risk of being killed by cars. In the country, loose dogs kill livestock. I think the state should put more effort into tracking down negligent pet owners and hitting them with fines and fees. The dogs can't help but be the way they are. It's up to the owner to do a good job caring for them. I've had several dogs and always made a great effort to keep them properly leashed, fenced or contained at all times.

@@evankinkelaar2178 Wrong. ‘Most’ dogs were not bred to guard, only a small handful of breeds were bred specifically to guard livestock and this does not include herding breeds. Guarding and herding are two VERY different things. People forget that dogs are predatory animals, they are not little humans but predators with prey drive and hunting instincts. Letting your dogs run loose is so widely irresponsible not only for other people and animals safety but also your dogs safety. Dogs should NOT be allowed to run loose off their owners property, I will shoot dogs that come onto my land.

@Samuel Morgan Agreed. The only reason that brave donkey was mauled by the 2 put bulls was because it was a MINIATURE donkey. God love the little donkey for its bravery, but it looked even small for a miniature donkey. If they had a regular-sized donkey, or even a Mammoth Donkey breed, guaranteed those 2 pit bulls would have either run away or would have been killed. Donkeys are smart enough to know how to weaponize their rear kicks, and one good kick to either of those dogs' heads and it would have resulted in a dead dog. Plus donkeys have massive teeth and will bite, and can also use their front legs to stomp. The problem was not having a regular-sized donkey to guard against dogs.

It's natural. 11:39 - get pups from workin parents, not pets. Parents have 2 b on a farm protectin livestock. 12:06 - her two Great Pyrenees came from workin farm.

Great information, thanks! I’m considering having the 3 species but I want miniature donkeys so they’re not going to be guardians, just pets and garden fertilizer. I’m considering having llamas and dogs because I want to have goats as well as poultry. And I’m actually considering getting pure Great Pyrenees or Great Pyrenees/ German Shepherd cross. One question, do the LGDs (livestock guard dogs) have to be socialized with other dogs if you have other dogs that are just pets and be socialized with your family and friends?

Tibetan mastiffs (not chinese mastiffs, easily confused) are also very good livestock guardians. They're one of the oldest recorded breeds of dog and were used in Tibetan steppes as livestock and property guardians as early as 1100 BC. They're large, powerful dogs with incredible strength and stamina. They're also extremely intelligent. Tibetan mastiff owners tend to describe them as human-like in mindset, self-posessed and stubborn. They need to be socialized very early on to be made trainable in any capacity. However, regardless of training, they naturally bond to and guard livestock with extreme gusto, since it's what they've been doing for thousands of years.

I was considering getting Kangal guard dogs, but after researching the various guard breeds, it seems Great Pyrenees are a better choice. Kangals are excellent livestock guard dogs, used for 100's of years by Turkish livestock farmers, they not only protect from predators, but are very protective of their humans as well. But, they are not friendly towards other humans or strange pets who might be visiting the family. But the Great Pyrenees don't have that problem, and are more flexible as long as they know the strangers are no threat to them or their family. Thanks for reaffirming my choices, which now may include some Llama's! Love the names of your puppies, you must be a fan of the Vikings as I am!

How do llamas react around bear? A friend tried pack goats, which became terrorized what they got a whiff of black bear. I'm looking for a pack animal that ignores bear. I'm in the black bear capital of Virginia which has part of the Appalachian Trail running through it, as well as both forks of and the Shenandoah River running through it. We have black bear, coyote hybrids, bobcat, fox, raccoons, possum, barred owls, red tailed hawk and bald eagles. We had great success with our search and rescue dogs, border collies but, we have one left and has become old and disinterested.

I have a farm and our biggest problems are fox and raccoons. They can pull chickens right through a chain link fence.😬👎 We’ve fixed the problem though.

Livestock Guardian dogs bark all night long like it's their job, because it is. They are also known to be escape artists, they like to roam a large area. Not great pets, and a bad option if you have neighbors nearby

I actually have a goose that is very good at protecting the birds. In fact she kept all the ducks alive during that attack. But she would not survive going up against a large dog. So no, I did not forget to mention a goose. A goose is not a farm guardian.

male donkeys is or can be very agressive to newborn goats and sheeps.,so them ain´t no good for protection,but females is.mules too,even better because bigger.mule can kill lots of dogs or wolves in one night,but must always be females .but you is right ,dogs is worse as predators, because little fear of humans so do make more damage to livestock. but hey ,wolves too kill more than can chew same as minks and foxes when in chickenpen. greetings from spain..

Mama Storey I hope this doesn’t sound rude but maybe a muzzle? I would also say a red bandanna on the leash, it signals a lunging/sick/crazy dog that you shouldn’t come up too. Also I mean a muzzle will also help

donkeys are great ... but ... only if you have one or two. never a group or they will only take care of themselves and ignore protection of the sheep. don't dismiss them.
