Land Race Farm animal fund
In many communities, we have an issue with livestock guardian dogs not finding a good home. Livestock guardian dogs are ancient breed dogs for keeping livestock safe from master predators like Great Pyrenees, Akbash, Spanish Mastiff, Armenian Gampre, to name a few. The dogs would wander from their pastures and not get claimed when they end up in the shelter. Once they are in a shelter situation, this becomes a problem. The dogs are not domesticated breeds and do poorly in shelter situations. Then they usually get euthanized for no fault of their own.
So I have started a nonprofit to help save these incredible dogs. I would pull them out of shelters and bad situations, then rehab them, and in the process, I can see what their personality is so I can find the correct position for the dog. I would see how they act around the animals and other dogs of their type. This rehab process and finding a new home can take months to a year, and I take care of their vet care with vaccinations. I also track them throughout their lives and provide any support needed. I give this as low or at no cost to the new owner.
With everyone’s help I can get the dogs spayed or neutered and provide travel to their new homes also the expense of caring for them in this process. I can also continue to improve their living areas.
With this work I can save some wonderful dogs and help keep the livestock and families safe from the master predators while living with them.

August 15 is my 3 month anniversary with Lila. Tom did an exceptional job pairing us. She is absolutely perfect! It didn't start out that way, but with patience and understanding, we made this relationship work! The donation is in honor of the 3-3-3 rule of giving a chance to passing the three milestones of a new relationship. I look forward to discovering more about our journey. Thank you, Tom!

Tom is a special and amazing man. He's a loving soul that cares for rescued LGD dogs from shelters. I was amazed he takes care of over 25 rescues without help.
