[QUOTE="fenceman, post: 1282952, member: 23460"] Sky we used a donkey for years for sheep and goats. They can be very effective. Buy a young just weaned one , it needs to be a Jenny, use only one, never allow her to breed. Run her only with what she guards. Never with other donkeys or horses. My uncle uses the great Pyrenees dogs. They are kept and feed in the pasture with sheep from puppies. If you let come up to the house. They can get were they want to just hang around the house. They are EXTREMELY effective. To me their biggest negative (and it's a big one to me) you won't have anything in that pasture except those dogs and what their guarding. They will run off deer and Turkey completely. Ive personally seen 2 of them kill a mature 8 point buck. If that's not a problem for you . use em, they work. [/QUOTE]
