Years ago I had a set of Maremma/Akbash Livestock dogs 2 females. They assisted with deliveries of goats. They would pull babies and placentas. At that time I had more goats than you do. These dogs are amazing and clean everything up. One of these dogs I caught with a dead baby trying to revive it. I have come to realize after 30+ years with dairy goats to ALWAYS give your Livestock Dogs the benefit of the doubt. I am currently on my 4th set of Livestock Dogs.

We lost a baby this year to an attack by an owl. Our male Pyrenees intercepted the baby midair and unfortunately the talon killed the baby. He proceeded to clean the baby as if it was still alive and also clean the mother. I think you are right on track on what happened.

Dogs will clean themselves and their puppies. In fact, I’ve known them to clean stray cats. But I have never heard of a regular dog trying to hurt any type of baby, especially one like Enoli, who is raised to protect these animals. They will give their lives to protect the lambs, so I would never think they would do otherwise. Enoli did what she was trained, and her instincts told her what to do. Help the mama, then clean up after, including the babies and the mama. You can relax Enoli is doing her job.

Hello Patara glad to see you this morning wanted to share my 30 yr old son had to make the decision putting their dog down he had him since he was 17. It just happened July 2nd and he was devastated as a mother I put all my feelings aside and was his rock. As of today July 6th he is doing a bit better as I told him the pain will ease will not go away but will get better. He has to remember he has given that dog the best life and he is not in pain anymore! Thank you Patara correct prayers and support helps alot!!! God is good!!

@annettesellew1862 7 күн бұрын

We have had Great Pyrenees for many years, they don't attack what they protect. They are highly intelligent and she sensed the doe was in trouble and her instincts kicked in and she knew she needed to do something to save mom and the babies. And they are know for cleaning up goat babies and even other dogs puppies as well as kittens. They are Gentle Giants...unless something or someone threatens what they love and protect, they will die to protect. I've had one when one of my dogs needed a c-section complete care for the new borns, cleaning and keeping them warm until mama was able to care for them. More than likely she saved your doe's life. And took care of her until she was able to get back on her feet. This has been my experience over many years of owning Great Pyrenees.

The fact that the kid looked like it had been pulled, was completely clean, not injured in any way, tells me you’re correct. Inoli is a natural born midwife. You, sweet lady, are serendipitously blessed. So sad for Pepper.

@dawuda1986 7 күн бұрын

My dog did the same thing, the vet told me if she hadn’t pulled the baby out the momma goat would have died. That baby goat autopsy showed that it was still born, so the dog did not cause her death. It’s just it died and got stuck thank God she was there and save the mother‘s life , that mother goat is now ia mother to 12other Goats

I agree with you, Patara. I think that Inoli was helping and cleaned up afterwards to keep predators away. I agree with James that both babies were stillborn. If Inoli had any kind of aggression towards her pack, she would have shown it before now. Her mama instincts came out and Inoli was taking care of her pack. Sad to lose two babies.

I honestly think Enoli was trying to help. I have witnessed this personally, just not with livestock. We had a cat once that was in distress and my German shepherd/husky mix was actually trying to help deliver the kitten. I wouldn't be too distressed over it. I think you have a GLD that is so invested in 'her' herd that did what she could. God Bless you and your family.

Knowing LGD's (have 3) i'd say it was a stressed birth with the heat and she was trying to help. They will clean up the evidence to keep predators away too. As you said keep eye on her. But I honestly think she was trying to help because you were not there too. They are amazing dogs.

@GossMania 8 күн бұрын

Amazing thanks for sharing. I believe she knew that y’all weren’t around to help and that she had to help the mama. And clean up them both to make sure no predators came for them till you got back to check. She was helping mama and babies for sure.

Remember Patera that before Cochise passed he attacked a goat. Completely out of character for him. Enoli maybe combination of the heat, loss of Cochise, altered mental status? I am so sorry. Thanks for showing us the joys and sorrows of loving livestock and guardian/companion animals.

Do you ever think of cameras on your farm , so you can keep an eye when you are gone , I have cameras on my goats. And one time I went into town for the day about 100 miles from home, and checked my goat cam and sure enough one of my young goats was stuck in a feeder upside down about to break his neck, I called a friend that lived close to go over as quick as possible and rescue him , thankfully she did , but if I would not had that camera, I surely would have came home to a dead animal.

Since the Momma goat is in good and clean shape I’m not leaning toward toxicity issues for the babies. If it’s a “helping “ situation by Enolie maybe her motherly instincts kicked in and she tried to her best for the babies. Trust your gut and keep watch on the Momma. Trust your puppy.
