“In the 1800s, French settlers arrived in Louisiana with their Beauceron. They told of strange looking dogs with haunting glass eyes that were used by the Indians to hunt game in the swamp.It is thought the Beauceron and Red Wolf/war dog were interbred to produce the Catahoula” Photo Credit: @colt_blue_the_catahoula
*WARNING!* This is Titus who just left our farm a few weeks ago guarding his goats and chickens from this invader. At the same time he alerted his family that something was wrong. This turtle has got to go! I wanted to post this for two reasons, one he's an awesome young guardian, and two one of our Hilltop Great Pyrenees family lost a GP two days ago due to a snapping turtle fight. The snapping turtle wandered into his pasture where he guards his rams and he engaged the turtle receiving several bites to his muzzle and feet. He was taken to the vet given strong antibiotics to counteract the bacteria from the turtle bites. A few days later he died from blastomycosis. Turtles are cute and fun, except snapping turtles, but if your guardian encounters one and you're aware of it please remove the turtle ASAP!
Needless to say as his breeder I am proud as heck of Titus!
