I'm an old woman living alone. I feel safe because of my Great Pyrenees and a Lab Rottweiler mix. No one is going to bother me. They live both indoors and outdoors and are great guardian dogs together.
@@BlazinRiver1 My friend has a Cat from the Pound who's very exuberant and loves being outside doing the 100 yard dash! A neighbor told us that he saw her jump on 2 dog's backs because they dared step on HER lawn on the Corner Lot! Her predecessor was the same way, very protective of her Lot! One day we heard roaring like you'd expect to hear from Lion's and we thought she was getting torn apart! We rushed outside and ran to the front of the house, and here were 2 large 80 Lb Dog's crawling backwards on their bellies behind the Hedge, off the meridian to the street! 😅
Stay off the PETA pages and go to a real farm, you have no idea what actually goes on at farms they’re pups die for their animals (coming from someone who is actually in that community and knows from experience)
@@user-cp5js2be1vthat’s not true at all. These dogs are expensive so even the “worst” farmer would rather bite a vet bill than to put the animal down so easily. Plus it takes so much time and training to bond a dog with a flock, a farm dog won’t protect a flock it’s not bonded to. So even from a heartless standpoint that’s not a good route to take if the dog can be saved. A lot of the time is an animal MUST be put down it’s usually something you can’t get over, like rabies or a life threatening injury that would just keep the dog suffering.
We live in a very rural area, with coyotes and feral hogs. The feral hogs tear up the pasture. We have 5 Great Pyrenees dogs, all about 2 years old now. At first the neighbor was not happy about our dogs showing up on his property and even threatened to shot them. We explained that these dogs are Great Pyrenees and they are guard dogs and will not kill his calves. One day this past spring the neighbor’s wife came over and said that her husband wanted us to keep the dogs in their kennels because they were expecting calves. We again explained about the dogs, and we even pointed out that we don’t have any fresh digging in our pasture because the dogs keep the feral hogs off the pasture. Last week the neighbor came by to visit and he was telling us that our dogs are now guarding his cattle and was happy about that. We also asked him if the feral hogs were still digging up his pasture and he admitted that he had seen no recent digging. We all smiled. Great Pyrenees are good dogs in a rural environment. Can’t say enough about how good this breed of dog will guard and keep predators away.
@@kmarch6630he wasn't *just* trained properly, he was trained excellently. Property lines don't matter to him. He wants to keep his people and animals safe. All of em.
I have a Great Pyrenees named Teddie, and although I know full well he could take down the coyotes in the field yards away, I still feel extremely protective of him ! I protect him 😂 He's been charged and attacked by smaller dogs but he only pins them down. He never hurt smaller animals. I think he knows the difference between a real threat and a nuisance. He is overly protective of me, however, and he defers to my Dachshund. They're very soulful dogs, unlike all others and when he passes, they'll probably need to sedate me. We/humans don't deserve them 🐾💓🐾
A Great Pyrenees won't put up with being babied. They don't like indoor living. They want to be out with their stable mates. Never shut them in the barn. They can't stand being shut in.
@@mlrd2687 That’s the reason Casper is there. It’s the reason ALL working dogs are on farms. To ‘work’ the farm & protect the livestock. That is what they’re bred for. He deserves a better owner, b/c he took the time to clean him up, over racing him to the Vet right away. B/C he felt he had to decide _IF_ he was going to take him for help at all. 🤮
he did mention URBAN shepherding. He probably couldn't legally open fire in a neighborhood unless his own life was directly threatened. which even in "open and shut" cases can be financial ruin to prove.
I’m in California, and behind my house is a field with two coyotes living there. Right beside the field is a farm. One day, I watched one of the coyotes sneak into the farm. Not realizing there was a great Pyrenees guarding his herd and flock, the dog began its pursuit, but the coyote was able to get away. It was a very close call for the coyote. The dog seemed proud, waging his tail after the victory.
I am from the Pyrennees, in my childhood we owned several of this amazing breed. Thye would face, wolves, bears, other wildogs, ....whatever threatened the family and the animals of the property. They are the most loyal, noble, and fearless dogs you could imagine, such beautiful giants. I just loved them, still cry when i remember them.
The reason he was gone for those 2 days is because he tracked the other coyotes down to their den and finished the rest of the coyotes off. Extraordinary dog and story.
@@cathymartin6085 I just can’t stop thinking that I was dog in my previous life. God bless all dogs. Life without them would be miserable as fuck. Couple of days ago I seen reel about meeting ur dog in heaven. I wish u all that it came true. Their are not humans but they are part of my heart.
I lived in southern France as a child. The hills around our town were chock full of goat herders and their great Pyrenees guard dogs. The dogs always knew the difference between a kid and a threat. Beautiful noble dogs!❤❤
vets helped this reader know Casper was made comfortable and helped to heal correctly and get his energy back to continue to care for his fsmily & flock ❤️
3:20 "Do we take him to a vet or not". That should not even be a question. AND his dog was fighting for 30 MINUTES and Wierwille did not go out and help Casper, he just recorded the whole thing at a safe distance like a COWARD! John Wierwille is not a man but is an absolute pile of shit.
I live in Wyoming, blessed to live in Buffalo, Wyoming at the foot of the Big Horn Mountains. One day on a drive up in the mountains we came across a large flock of sheep grazing about 100 ft. from a fence keeping them from getting on the roadway. Little did we know they were being guarded by dogs. We got out of our vehicle to stand by it and watch the sheep graze for awhile, when out of nowhere we saw two very large dogs charging toward us. They meant business!!!! We jump in the car and sped off, only to see one of the dogs jump the fence and chase us down the roadway. To be sure, I now have deep respect for guard dogs.
We have had two Pyranees in our life. Absolutely the most wonderful dogs. We lived in Western Nebraska with many coyotes. We didn’t have sheep but we had cows, chickens, cats, horses , Border Collies and donkeys. One day a pack of coyotes was across the road, our Pyranees went across the road and the coyotes circled him. Husband went in the house for a rifle. Those coyotes started jumping in and nipping at our dog but not actually touching him. The dog circled and looked at each coyote. We watched and eventually the coyotes backed off and left. Not one bite! I always say…I don’t know what Devereaux said to those coyotes but he talked them down.
I'd never pass up an opportunity to shoot a coyote. Rotten vermin killed my favorite Border Collie pup. No mercy. Kill them all and let the fox come back.
Ive had Pyrs for 19 years. Casper would get his own couch, pillows, cheesey rice balls and long evenings watching reruns of Westminster, snacking on waffle bites with whip cream from the can. Hes done his job. Its retirement time now. ❤❤❤❤
I've raised and loved these dogs for almost 20 years. They guarded my Goats. There's nothing I can say that will be enough about these Valiant Protectors. They will fight the world if their "Charges" are threatened, and Die willingly and happily to see their charges safe. I sold my Goat herd last year, but kept 2 with me. I could not bear to part with them. They are 1/2 inside and 1/2 outside Pets and have a life here with me for as long as they live. I Owe them more than I'll ever be able to repay. In the almost 20 years I had these wonderful dogs protecting my Goats, I had some Die from one reason or another, BUT I never lost even one Goat to Predators. They've been bred for over 1000 years for One Job & They Do That Job Magnificently Well.
@@gmoore9450 My Go To Answer is that they protect against anything they see as a Threat. I had one bitten years ago but have no idea what happened to the snake. Dosed her with pain meds and broad spectrum antibiotics and she lived another 10 years. Sorry I can't be more help. Dogs in general don't like snakes. that's why so many get bitten. They can't leave them alone
A Calforinia woman, Mrs. Lang, told me her family dog attacked a rattlesnake very near to her children and killed it to protect them, and died from its bite. She was very grateful to that dog and emotional about it decades later.
This is why I’m the proud owner and breeder of the courageous and loyal Great Pyrenees. I’ve had this breed as working guardians for my goats and sheep for over 20 years. I wouldn’t have any other breed hands down. This is a great example of how fierce they are when it comes to protecting the herd. Congratulations to this big beautiful hero🥰
I agree. I have been raising sheep for ten yrs and have four GP's. I have never lost anything to a predator. Not even a duck or a chicken. They are an amazing breed.
What’s going on with the Great Pyrenees being dumped in Texas and other states in south ? There are Great Pyrenees rescues swimming in them it is so sad !
@@Karen-lo5oiMaybe, this urban farmer should have had more Great Pyrenees to guard his flock. Then, the coyotes would have given the flock a wide berth because they knew they were out gunned as it were.
I had a dog that was 1/2 Great Pyrenees and he was a wonderful protector! He was found by my SIL in an under an abandonded trailer with no sign of any mother or siblings. So she brought him home and that dog protected 4 houses, 3 horses and 8 chickens. He was so protective that if I would get into a car he did not know he would headbutt that car all the way down our 1/2 mile driveway trying to get to me to protect me. We had other small dog and small children and not once did we ever have to worry about coyotes! RIP Bubba my loving protector!
Super Heroic Dog, He’s a tough Boy- Worth his weight in gold! Took on 12-13 coyotes & won. But as the vet suggested, Not only did he protect the sheep, but also other nearby pets, because a pack of 13, wouldn’t think twice about hunting someone’s Pomeranian or their poodle, or could attack a human, a small child wouldn’t stand a chance, This dog is a hero.
A Hero should be respected by giving every opportunity to save his life. "Finally" needed to be "Immediately ". Wish the owner showed him more love & affection in the video.
Oh my goodness. Everything in this story made me so emotional. But for some reason the part that made me shed a tear was how that wonderful vet started a go fund me and raised more than they asked for, so the money will help save the next animal who desperately needs it. That’s beautiful.
@@ysf-psfx LifeLine now has a full veterinary clinic and hospital. I got my pitbull from them about 16 years ago. They have grown so much since then. Amazing organization.
@@randomgrinn Dude, coyotes kill kids and pets. Had one kill my siamese cat and also killed two other neighbors cats. There are videos of coyotes trying to make off with toddlers. One killed a baby on a camping trip in Australia. I guess along with the sheep you don't care about you also don't care about children either.
I am soo thankful that Casper is doing well! I have a Great Pyrenees almost 2 yrs. old. I didn’t know what to expect since I’d never had one before. He is sweet, affectionate, loyal, and he has kicked in to protect our small chicken flock when they are out free ranging. Hawks don’t fly over any more because he vehemently protests even seeing them from afar. On our property there are no more signs of coyotes. Now I can go walking without fear of being attacked. Thank you for sharing your story!❤
the loyalty of dogs knows no bounds...my buddie, a bluetick named Sadie, literally stared down a full grown mama bear when we were on a hike after i accidentally came across a pair of her cubs. Once mama stepped out on the trail Sadie walked up, stomped her feet and barked like ive never seen her do before. she was ready to die for me and that was really something
I had LGD’s for 15 years. You won’t find a more loyal, fierce protector of your home or livestock than this breed of dog. They wouldn’t even let a crow land in the yard. Worth every penny.
My boyfriend was driving us down the back roads, as usual. And there’s this bigger house we never really pay attention to, seems to be a farm with a huge yard and fenced in area. I’m always looking at the horses as we drive by. And one night at 2am driving the back road at night, a bigger dog came up to our car barking and we stopped. It appeared from the fenced in yard by the farm, it came from the darkness, we almost didn’t see it until it came around and got in front of our car. We didn’t know what to do, we originally thought the dog was a stray, but we didn’t know why it would stop our car, we thought it needed help. Until 2 or 3 other big dogs came from the darkness in the yard, almost circling our car and barking, sniffing. We tried driving away a bit, but they seemed to be trailing the back of the car, barking and walking alongside the house, protecting it. My first instinct was to try and find out if something was wrong with them. But I realized, those were the guard dogs of the farm, protecting the horses that I look at everyday, about 40 of them, all different shades of color. I love that I’ve never seen any people outside the farm, I’ve never seen the dogs before, but now I know the horses are protected late at night, and I know not to drive by there at 2am again lol.
Sounds like stopping the car triggered their threat response: next time you drive by at night, just keep moving - and hope your car doesn’t break down!
The "great" in Great Pyrenees name isn't about the size of the mountain range, it's about the loyalty, courage and dedication of these wonderful dogs. They have been bred to deal with wolves and bears, so coyotes are "tis but a scratch" to them.
@@lmlowe9100y'all love to take what ppl say and twist it all around to fit your narrative, he started in the video that they cleaned up the dog to see if they need to take him to the vet or not, he didn't say or insinuate that he wasn't going to take his dog to the vet cause he didn't care, he was explaining his thought process of seeing his injured working dog 🙄 obviously this man loves his dog and did what he needed to do to make sure he was okay. he is not a jerk !
My friend had a Great Pyrenees guarding injured race horses. He was the sweetest huge dog I ever met. Very serious workers and all business whatever job you give them to do. He too fought off coyotes when they showed up. Never lost one horse thanks to him!
A friend said to me many years ago that a dog is a noble animal. How right he was. This boy showed his nobility. He was not asked but did what he had to do. Not compelled but acted of his own volition. He is one huge spirit. A dog amongst dogs.
Dear, dear Casper. God bless him and all the people who helped save him with their loving concern. Casper has no idea he's hero or how many people have fallen in love with him. ❤
In France they are called Patou. He did his job well. As puppies, they stay in the barn with the sheep. This allows them to bond with them. They are beautiful dogs. Cute the baby sheep wagging its tail next to Casper. Glad he is recovering nicely. He is a hero.
Dogs are tough as hell. I have seen dogs recover from serious injuries without even limp after they healed. I have livestock and four dogs. None are LSGD but they are all working dogs. They protect the animals from all sorts of predators. We have had mountain lions, bears, coyotes , fox, badgers, raccoons, hawks and eagles on our property and the dogs go after all of them. I can’t imagine life without the dogs for security and safety.
I’m so glad to hear your response because dogs are the best deterrents to predators. Packs of dogs are what most farms need and we know there are no shortages of dogs. It’s too bad a charity doesn’t make this a mission to place dogs on all farms with livestock to act as guards
This story is BS but dogs are tough. I watched a Pyrenees get her hamstring blown apart with a deer rifle, bleed out on the way to the vet and within a week was walking around almost healed.
Scientists have been able to prove that the dog feels every emotion we feel and they feel it for the same reasons we feel them. Same with prime mates, elephants and dolphins too😊❤

As a person who grew up with horses I have great admiration for the beautiful dogs like Casper that live to protect their four legged charges. Casper =absolute hero and incredibly brave.
Thank you for deciding to take him to the vet. And enough people care about that baby enough he's got Angels everywhere cuz he is Angel. God bless all the people that helped him get better. What a beautiful dog he is, get better Casper.
Casper is a true hero ! Excellent job done... Hoping his recovery is going well. The farmer got a first hand look at what this dog and its breed are about.. Casper took down 8 out of 13 coyotes , Very impressive...The farmer owes Casper a lot of steaks for his heroic deed of protecting his flock of sheep. Treat, care and love that pup with respect and kindness, he deserves it! Plus the farmers neighbor's owes Casper alot as well, for stopping the threat on their livestock.
According to other comments here, the reason Casper took two days to return home is because he tracked the remaining coyotes to their den, and made sure he'd killed every last one of them before he even thought about anything else. Pretty incredible, IMHO.
An interesting comment about giving Casper a steak. I learned from the people in our Italian village that their fierce protectors only drink whey because of the high protein and other nutrient content. They never eat meat of any kind for obvious reasons.
Coyotes are a species of canine, so they are dogs and very intelligent. It would not surprise me if the remnants of the pack that Casper vanquished were keeping well clear of "Casper's farm". They might test out for his scent, from a safe distance...
Man, I can't talk up Lifeline enough. I'm glad they are getting a shout out in this. I adopted my dog from them and they were incredible in the process.
I have a working Great Pyrenees. These dogs are a Godsend! I live in a hollar with hills on both sides of me. My girl was about a year old. It was just at dusk, loosing light fast. One of my goats was in the throws of kidding when we heard coyotes howling, close, on my side of the ridge. My GP comes a flying down the other hill, crosses the creek and puts a run to those coyotes! Thankfully there weren't that many so they weren't as emboldened as the large pack in this story. What a scary event! I am ever so grateful I have her here! She is an important part of my farm! What saddens me are the comments I read from people who have never run a farm, never raised livestock, are probably a bunch of city slickers who have no clue about country life, criticizing the owner. Out here, you better learn to do a lot of doctoring yourself because country vets are as scarce as hens teeth, and nearly impossible to get on the weekend or holidays. And then the government passes a new regulation in the dark of night to make it even harder, if not impossible, for us to treat our animals if need be! I'm sure there's going to be a bunch of dead animals because of it!
It's hard enough to get a vet in small town too now. We have long waiting lists in Canada, and some people have to drive to the nearest city. I don't judge the owners, or hard working farmers, period. Farmers are struggling, and these are huge bills, even if there was a vet available.
@@ezlow1065 As a farmer I now can not buy antibiotics for my animals from a feed store any more. I now have to have a prescription from a vet. Doesn't sound bad on the surface, right? Here's the deal, it is EXTREMELY difficult to get a vet out to the farm. Country vets are as scarce as hens teeth around here! I am EXTREMELY lucky IF I can get one out here for an emergency in time to save the animal. More times than not, we farmers have to learn to do our own vet work. Animals can go down, and die, very quickly if they are not treated as soon as possible. I lost a goat because I did not have the proper medication on hand when I discovered her. I now make sure I have what I might need on hand. When my supply of antibiotic runs out, if I can't get a vet to give me a prescription before I actually need it, I could lose animals. A BETTER solution would have been to have antibiotics available in smaller vials. I have to buy 100ml vials, which is the smallest available. The dosage for my goats is 1-3 ml for 1-3 days (depending on why it's being given, and size of the animal).Once that vial has been opened, I have 60 days to use it before I have to throw it away. I have had to throw away 99 mls of antibiotic because I can not get it in smaller vials. See the problem?
I love this breed. They are unique Their love us beyond. They are quiet not clingy but always there. Intelligence beyond! Forget sit stay come…. They offer greater riches! .
I remember our first one we had back in the 80's, she was a puppy. I went out back to lay out in the sun. Slathered myself up with oil and had just laid on the grass on my towel when my dad let the dog out. And she made a bee-line for me. Jumped all over me. I was covered in white fluffy fur, all stuck to the oil lol. Wish they had a longer lifespan.
XOXOXO To Casper. My sheep dog was also a Great Pyrenees. Very loyal and loving 🥰. One day Nipper came to the back door & he came into the house and there was a man getting out of his car and said something to me and my hair stood up on the back of my neck., Nipper was walking behind me I hadn’t said anything to Nipper other than taking a step backwards . I stopped walking towards the man and Nipper sense my fear and at the same Nipper moved in front of me and growled and showed his pearly whites, teeth 🦷, to the man who got back in is car and left, I turned around called Nipper to come and we went back in house. He went to back door want out again and ran back to his sheep & goat herd to make sure they were ok. Normally Nipper never comes in the house he prefers is herd.
This dog is such a good brave boy, I was so happy to hear that he made it through. I had a bit of a laugh, though. The farmer said that he had taken Casper in to see if he would do a good job and could stay on the farm. Pretty sure Casper proved himself quite thoroughly 😂❤
Thank you for treating Casper! He almost gave his ‘all’ defending this sheep! Can you get a 2nd or 3rd of him so there is a ‘small army’ there to meet the predators? You have a wonderful dog. Am crying.
What a sweet n brave dog. Casper certainly deserves a warm n good hug n loads of unconditional love fm his owner..he's ultimate hero🐕❤❤ so loyal n brave!
WHAT A FANTASTIC DOG HE TOOK CARE OF THE THREAT TO YOUR FLOCK AND I'M GLAD HE'S DOING BETTER THAT IS A LOYAL WONDERFUL POWERFUL DOG BECAUSE A COYOTES USUALLY ATTACK IN A PACK SO I HOPE YOU GIVE YOUR DOG SOME GOOD TREATS HE DESERVES IT GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU
What a heart warming story and such a sweet dog. I lost my great Pyrenees dog "Callie." 14 months ago and miss her greatly. Got her from a rescue center and she died of all things a lung tumor and was only 8 y/o.
Love to you. It's such a heartbreak. I lost my sweet mixed breed (9 years old, also a rescue,) about a year ago to bladder cancer, and I'm still crying. I do absolutely believe that she's in heaven...but I'll still miss her every day until I join her.
That's a Great Pyrenees! Those dogs are loyal, caring, gentle with their masters no matter how small. We adopted ours when he was 8 weeks old and we named him Snowball. I miss my dog so much!
i am on a fixed income. I sometimes can't make it to the end of the month. But I assure you that if i had any extra money it would go to this dog. In a heartbeat.
We have a female Kusvaz, I was out in the field doing some work. A cougar broke through the tree line, she didn’t even hesitate, she took off after it. Three hours later she came up thru the field. No more cougar sightings. These breeds are amazing.
Pyrs will protect you and your family just as vigorously. They have the 2nd strongest bite force in the dog world at 700 PSI. For comparison, a Pit Bull has a bite force of 235 PSI. They are the best family dogs as well as livestock guardians. They are very loving and can be BIG couch potatoes...until they hear or see something! Instant guard mode! They are bit barky, but if you live in a rural area, you want that, to let you know something not normal is going on. Don't expect to train them like a Golden Retriever, they don't do tricks. They protect!
Pyreneans are great, however if the area was infested with hordes of predators like in this case, it would make sense upgrading to Caucasian Shepherds. They are absolute monsters and would tear through any amount of coyotes without sustaining much damage.
Yeah, they arent too practical for anywhere outside of mountainous area and terain though.. i belive the Pyr and Anatolian Shepherd basically the united states version of a Kangal are the way to go in the states. @@DestroyerOfLiberals
Thank you to all who donated...my turn next time. Just found this story..how great is the guy that owes him..these days with profits being so important. Your new to you dog is a gem! Blessings to all.
What a dog! Fearless, bold and protective. I don't think I want to mess with Casper's sheep, any time soon. Just look at his eyes at the 1:53 point in the video - those are the eyes of a fierce protector.
I grew up with a Great Pyrenees -- Brutus -- huge dog 175 pounds. He was the meekest, most loving dog who took orders from our two Pugs. He had another side that came out one day when a German Shepherd attacked him. What a fight! Brutus took off an ear and sent the Shepherd squealing down the street. Then he went back to waging his tail and being loving.
My mom had several Great Pyrenees dogs as a young girl living in urban Indiana. I remember her talking about them. Growing up on a horse farm, we had a St Bernard, an Old English sheepdog and various other dogs and feral cats. I wish we had some Great Pyrenees dogs too especially when I think about when our broodmares went into foal and were very vulnerable.
Make sure your dog always has fresh water,good high quality food including some fresh food and whatever care it needs. And for goodness sake treat it like you would your own child. Dogs are a gift to human kind.
Dogs are the only living beings on earth capable of unconditional love.🐾♥ The perfect daily reminders of Jesus love toward us. Purposely so. ;) Definitely one of the best gifts ever. After Jesus & our free will, of course.♥ ✝
I can tell you're an incredibly proud and responsible Casper owner and well you should be. Dogs never cease to amaze. We had a collie shepherd that was a natural herding dog. He was awesome, but never anything as heroic as Casper.
I have learned that Casper followed the remaining Coyotes to their den and finished them off. It is a trait. And why he was gone for 2 days.

Give that beautiful dog an early retirement and let him live in your home. He earned every bit of it. What a wonderful dog !
The dogs prefer to be doing their jobs for the most part.
Exactly what I thought. I'm so glad Casper survived. He's beautiful, inside and out. ♥️♥️

@@GreeneyedApe No, it was dramatized for TV views and people like you do exactly what you are doing
We live in a very rural area, with coyotes and feral hogs. The feral hogs tear up the pasture. We have 5 Great Pyrenees dogs, all about 2 years old now. At first the neighbor was not happy about our dogs showing up on his property and even threatened to shot them. We explained that these dogs are Great Pyrenees and they are guard dogs and will not kill his calves. One day this past spring the neighbor’s wife came over and said that her husband wanted us to keep the dogs in their kennels because they were expecting calves. We again explained about the dogs, and we even pointed out that we don’t have any fresh digging in our pasture because the dogs keep the feral hogs off the pasture. Last week the neighbor came by to visit and he was telling us that our dogs are now guarding his cattle and was happy about that. We also asked him if the feral hogs were still digging up his pasture and he admitted that he had seen no recent digging. We all smiled. Great Pyrenees are good dogs in a rural environment. Can’t say enough about how good this breed of dog will guard and keep predators away.
If your dogs were on his property they're not trained correctly.
@@kmarch6630Yeah, damn those dogs keeping predators away from the neighbors' stock too.
@@kmarch6630 maybe not but they do that by instinct, good dogs

legit tearing up before i even hear the story. I hope he is treated like a king for the rest of his life
I have a Great Pyrenees named Teddie, and although I know full well he could take down the coyotes in the field yards away, I still feel extremely protective of him ! I protect him 😂 He's been charged and attacked by smaller dogs but he only pins them down. He never hurt smaller animals. I think he knows the difference between a real threat and a nuisance. He is overly protective of me, however, and he defers to my Dachshund. They're very soulful dogs, unlike all others and when he passes, they'll probably need to sedate me. We/humans don't deserve them 🐾💓🐾
@@AlexK26496~ Dogs are angels on four legs in fur. I can’t imagine my world without my dogs or my cats. ♥️😍🙏🏼🐾🐾
A Great Pyrenees won't put up with being babied. They don't like indoor living. They want to be out with their stable mates. Never shut them in the barn. They can't stand being shut in.
Casper's like the John Wick of the dog world.
👍
More like The Terminator.
They should rename him to baba yaga

Casper is heroic and deserves the best medical care possible.
i agree, as poor as I am I would find a way to treat those wounds. He is magnificent.
That dog deserves a better owner who won't expose him to mortal danger every day.
@@mlrd2687your clueless as to what a dog is apparently... pathetic
But the owner need more dogs for his herd!!! Greetings from Russia.
@@mlrd2687 That’s the reason Casper is there. It’s the reason ALL working dogs are on farms.
To ‘work’ the farm & protect the livestock. That is what they’re bred for.
He deserves a better owner, b/c he took the time to clean him up, over racing him to the Vet right away. B/C he felt he had to decide _IF_ he was going to take him for help at all. 🤮
There should never have been a question about whether to take him to a vet or not. He’s a hero
I don't understand why the owner didn't join in on the fight either. He said it was about half an hour of fighting.
exactly my thought why did the owner not get the gun out??@@MustardSkaven
he did mention URBAN shepherding. He probably couldn't legally open fire in a neighborhood unless his own life was directly threatened. which even in "open and shut" cases can be financial ruin to prove.
@@MustardSkaven. The owner may not have been the one to witness the attack.
@@doloresreynolds8145 He said he watched it himself. They interviewed the owner.
30 minutes of continuous combat against an entire pack of coyotes? That dog deserves the equivalent of the Medal of Honor!!
most of that time he was chasing them
I’m in California, and behind my house is a field with two coyotes living there. Right beside the field is a farm. One day, I watched one of the coyotes sneak into the farm. Not realizing there was a great Pyrenees guarding his herd and flock, the dog began its pursuit, but the coyote was able to get away. It was a very close call for the coyote.
The dog seemed proud, waging his tail after the victory.
remember tho, the coyote is a native animal..they want to live too, they have to do this to survive, so we have to be on their side too
@@TheSadistNat1on no we don't. they will eat small humans, Great Pyrs wont
I am from the Pyrennees, in my childhood we owned several of this amazing breed. Thye would face, wolves, bears, other wildogs, ....whatever threatened the family and the animals of the property. They are the most loyal, noble, and fearless dogs you could imagine, such beautiful giants. I just loved them, still cry when i remember them.
Do they fight off snakes too?
Amen, that breed I think is big cause it would take a big dog to hold all that heart and brave. JMHO
@@gmoore9450 don't know? But if you got snake issues? Get some hogs, hogs love to eat snakes. JMHO

I lived in southern France as a child. The hills around our town were chock full of goat herders and their great Pyrenees guard dogs. The dogs always knew the difference between a kid and a threat. Beautiful noble dogs!❤❤
did you ever see a cartoon show called Belle and sebastien? it was based on a french novel about a kid and his great pyrenees
A wonderful story of a heroic Casper!
Coyotes: You really going to die for these sheep?
Casper: Somebody's going to

@@ElectrifizeFacts. I just came from that video
Bar for bar
On the odd occasion in this life , you come across a story you will never Forget , this for me is one of them .
That good dog deserves the best of care and treatment! Thank you to the great veterinary team!

I live in Wyoming, blessed to live in Buffalo, Wyoming at the foot of the Big Horn Mountains. One day on a drive up in the mountains we came across a large flock of sheep grazing about 100 ft. from a fence keeping them from getting on the roadway. Little did we know they were being guarded by dogs. We got out of our vehicle to stand by it and watch the sheep graze for awhile, when out of nowhere we saw two very large dogs charging toward us. They meant business!!!! We jump in the car and sped off, only to see one of the dogs jump the fence and chase us down the roadway. To be sure, I now have deep respect for guard dogs.
Learned a good lesson about sheep guards without getting harmed. All's well that ends well.
Guardian. Not guard. Guardian dogs alert. Then take action if the leader doesn’t take action or show up. I strongly recommend one.
Yep, they're doing their job and they take it seriously. Huge respect for livestock Guardian dogs.
We have had two Pyranees in our life. Absolutely the most wonderful dogs. We lived in Western Nebraska with many coyotes. We didn’t have sheep but we had cows, chickens, cats, horses , Border Collies and donkeys. One day a pack of coyotes was across the road, our Pyranees went across the road and the coyotes circled him. Husband went in the house for a rifle. Those coyotes started jumping in and nipping at our dog but not actually touching him. The dog circled and looked at each coyote. We watched and eventually the coyotes backed off and left. Not one bite! I always say…I don’t know what Devereaux said to those coyotes but he talked them down.
That's what I love about flock guardians. They don't kill unless they have to❤
I love that!@@chelliebeach954
I'd never pass up an opportunity to shoot a coyote. Rotten vermin killed my favorite Border Collie pup. No mercy. Kill them all and let the fox come back.
Sweet..
❤
I am sure Devereaux had told them: "My name is Devereaux! How shall I devour you?"
Ive had Pyrs for 19 years. Casper would get his own couch, pillows, cheesey rice balls and long evenings watching reruns of Westminster, snacking on waffle bites with whip cream from the can. Hes done his job. Its retirement time now. ❤❤❤❤
I've raised and loved these dogs for almost 20 years. They guarded my Goats. There's nothing I can say that will be enough about these Valiant Protectors. They will fight the world if their "Charges" are threatened, and Die willingly and happily to see their charges safe. I sold my Goat herd last year, but kept 2 with me. I could not bear to part with them. They are 1/2 inside and 1/2 outside Pets and have a life here with me for as long as they live. I Owe them more than I'll ever be able to repay. In the almost 20 years I had these wonderful dogs protecting my Goats, I had some Die from one reason or another, BUT I never lost even one Goat to Predators. They've been bred for over 1000 years for One Job & They Do That Job Magnificently Well.
Do they protect from snakes as well?
@@gmoore9450 My Go To Answer is that they protect against anything they see as a Threat. I had one bitten years ago but have no idea what happened to the snake. Dosed her with pain meds and broad spectrum antibiotics and she lived another 10 years. Sorry I can't be more help. Dogs in general don't like snakes. that's why so many get bitten. They can't leave them alone
A Calforinia woman, Mrs. Lang, told me her family dog attacked a rattlesnake very near to her children and killed it to protect them, and died from its bite. She was very grateful to that dog and emotional about it decades later.
Their goats may be gone, but you have their full time protection now. Feel sure I don't have to tell you that.
This is why I’m the proud owner and breeder of the courageous and loyal Great Pyrenees. I’ve had this breed as working guardians for my goats and sheep for over 20 years. I wouldn’t have any other breed hands down. This is a great example of how fierce they are when it comes to protecting the herd. Congratulations to this big beautiful hero🥰
I agree. I have been raising sheep for ten yrs and have four GP's. I have never lost anything to a predator. Not even a duck or a chicken. They are an amazing breed.
What’s going on with the Great Pyrenees being dumped in Texas and other states in south ? There are Great Pyrenees rescues swimming in them it is so sad !
@@Karen-lo5oiMaybe, this urban farmer should have had more Great Pyrenees to guard his flock. Then, the coyotes would have given the flock a wide berth because they knew they were out gunned as it were.
The shelters are overflowing with unwanted dogs. Get a job and quit contributing to the immiseration of animals. Dirty backyard breeder.
you are a wise man
I had a dog that was 1/2 Great Pyrenees and he was a wonderful protector! He was found by my SIL in an under an abandonded trailer with no sign of any mother or siblings. So she brought him home and that dog protected 4 houses, 3 horses and 8 chickens. He was so protective that if I would get into a car he did not know he would headbutt that car all the way down our 1/2 mile driveway trying to get to me to protect me. We had other small dog and small children and not once did we ever have to worry about coyotes! RIP Bubba my loving protector!
Small town girl with a small dog an small children x
Super Heroic Dog,
He’s a tough Boy-
Worth his weight in gold!
Took on 12-13 coyotes & won.
But as the vet suggested,
Not only did he protect the sheep, but also other nearby pets, because a pack of 13, wouldn’t think twice about hunting someone’s Pomeranian or their poodle, or could attack a human, a small child wouldn’t stand a chance,
This dog is a hero.
Exactly! Was thinking the same, especially small children
Even Chihuahuas?
A Hero should be respected by giving every opportunity to save his life. "Finally" needed to be "Immediately ". Wish the owner showed him more love & affection in the video.
Oh my goodness. Everything in this story made me so emotional. But for some reason the part that made me shed a tear was how that wonderful vet started a go fund me and raised more than they asked for, so the money will help save the next animal who desperately needs it. That’s beautiful.
They aren't actually a full vet, it's a spay/neuter and adoption center. They are angels, it's where I got my dog.
@@ysf-psfx LifeLine now has a full veterinary clinic and hospital. I got my pitbull from them about 16 years ago. They have grown so much since then. Amazing organization.
Casper's loyalty and strength is amazing .He deserves the best❣🐕
I'd kill 1,000 mindless sheep to save the life of one wild and free coyote. This world is very messed up.
He sure does,thank goodness he survived😊😊😊
@@randomgrinn Dude, coyotes kill kids and pets. Had one kill my siamese cat and also killed two other neighbors cats. There are videos of coyotes trying to make off with toddlers. One killed a baby on a camping trip in Australia. I guess along with the sheep you don't care about you also don't care about children either.
I'm shocked they saved him anf didn't put him down. Some agricultural farmers aren't the best peeps. Really glad to hear they saved him
@@randomgrinnThat makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Mindless sheep? Sheep should matter just as much as coyotes. Which are bad btw
What a question do we take the dog to a vet? God bless this dog, he gave his life he deserves the BEST care
I am soo thankful that Casper is doing well! I have a Great Pyrenees almost 2 yrs. old. I didn’t know what to expect since I’d never had one before. He is sweet, affectionate, loyal, and he has kicked in to protect our small chicken flock when they are out free ranging. Hawks don’t fly over any more because he vehemently protests even seeing them from afar. On our property there are no more signs of coyotes. Now I can go walking without fear of being attacked. Thank you for sharing your story!❤
the loyalty of dogs knows no bounds...my buddie, a bluetick named Sadie, literally stared down a full grown mama bear when we were on a hike after i accidentally came across a pair of her cubs. Once mama stepped out on the trail Sadie walked up, stomped her feet and barked like ive never seen her do before. she was ready to die for me and that was really something
I hope Casper is doing well and thriving now - Thanksgiving 2024. God bless all there, especially Casper. Such a very good boy.
I had LGD’s for 15 years. You won’t find a more loyal, fierce protector of your home or livestock than this breed of dog. They wouldn’t even let a crow land in the yard. Worth every penny.
They are worth it because of who they are not what they do!
@@starspangledwinneryou are what you do.
My boyfriend was driving us down the back roads, as usual. And there’s this bigger house we never really pay attention to, seems to be a farm with a huge yard and fenced in area. I’m always looking at the horses as we drive by.
And one night at 2am driving the back road at night, a bigger dog came up to our car barking and we stopped.
It appeared from the fenced in yard by the farm, it came from the darkness, we almost didn’t see it until it came around and got in front of our car.
We didn’t know what to do, we originally thought the dog was a stray, but we didn’t know why it would stop our car, we thought it needed help.
Until 2 or 3 other big dogs came from the darkness in the yard, almost circling our car and barking, sniffing.
We tried driving away a bit, but they seemed to be trailing the back of the car, barking and walking alongside the house, protecting it.
My first instinct was to try and find out if something was wrong with them.
But I realized, those were the guard dogs of the farm, protecting the horses that I look at everyday, about 40 of them, all different shades of color.
I love that I’ve never seen any people outside the farm, I’ve never seen the dogs before, but now I know the horses are protected late at night, and I know not to drive by there at 2am again lol.
Sounds like stopping the car triggered their threat response: next time you drive by at night, just keep moving - and hope your car doesn’t break down!
This dog has a job and he does it perfectly.🙏
The "great" in Great Pyrenees name isn't about the size of the mountain range, it's about the loyalty, courage and dedication of these wonderful dogs. They have been bred to deal with wolves and bears, so coyotes are "tis but a scratch" to them.
he DESERVES a friend by his side 😢
So happy that this very brave and sweet boy is healing so well 💖 please give him lots of hugs. A true hero💞

@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
A friend said to me many years ago that a dog is a noble animal. How right he was. This boy showed his nobility. He was not asked but did what he had to do. Not compelled but acted of his own volition. He is one huge spirit. A dog amongst dogs.
Dogs are the only living beings on earth capable of unconditional love.🐾♥
The perfect daily reminders of Jesus love toward us.
Purposely so. ;)
Dear, dear Casper. God bless him and all the people who helped save him with their loving concern. Casper has no idea he's hero or how many people have fallen in love with him. ❤
In France they are called Patou. He did his job well. As puppies, they stay in the barn with the sheep. This allows them to bond with them. They are beautiful dogs. Cute the baby sheep wagging its tail next to Casper. Glad he is recovering nicely. He is a hero.
I saw that too! Too cute!
Dogs are tough as hell. I have seen dogs recover from serious injuries without even limp after they healed. I have livestock and four dogs. None are LSGD but they are all working dogs. They protect the animals from all sorts of predators. We have had mountain lions, bears, coyotes , fox, badgers, raccoons, hawks and eagles on our property and the dogs go after all of them. I can’t imagine life without the dogs for security and safety.
L
I’m so glad to hear your response because dogs are the best deterrents to predators. Packs of dogs are what most farms need and we know there are no shortages of dogs. It’s too bad a charity doesn’t make this a mission to place dogs on all farms with livestock to act as guards
This story is BS but dogs are tough. I watched a Pyrenees get her hamstring blown apart with a deer rifle, bleed out on the way to the vet and within a week was walking around almost healed.
Friend had a Cairne Terrier got hit by a motor home. Dog was down for nearly a month. Nothing was broken. Fully recovered.
Scientists have been able to prove that the dog feels every emotion we feel and they feel it for the same reasons we feel them. Same with prime mates, elephants and dolphins too😊❤

Casper The Warrior! Dogs are pure love and loyalty and we should be worthy of such devotion.
I live 800 miles away from you ,I'd love to stop and Pet the great warrior, and leave a donation for his well being. On my way to Florida.
Casper is a true hero ! Excellent job done... Hoping his recovery is going well. The farmer got a first hand look at what this dog and its breed are about.. Casper took down 8 out of 13 coyotes , Very impressive...The farmer owes Casper a lot of steaks for his heroic deed of protecting his flock of sheep. Treat, care and love that pup with respect and kindness, he deserves it! Plus the farmers neighbor's owes Casper alot as well, for stopping the threat on their livestock.
According to other comments here, the reason Casper took two days to return home is because he tracked the remaining coyotes to their den, and made sure he'd killed every last one of them before he even thought about anything else. Pretty incredible, IMHO.
He got all 13 that's where he was for two days
An interesting comment about giving Casper a steak. I learned from the people in our Italian village that their fierce protectors only drink whey because of the high protein and other nutrient content. They never eat meat of any kind for obvious reasons.
Coyotes are a species of canine, so they are dogs and very intelligent. It would not surprise me if the remnants of the pack that Casper vanquished were keeping well clear of "Casper's farm". They might test out for his scent, from a safe distance...
na he didn't prove his value he went past his value that dog is a legend bro he showed he was up for the task
Man, I can't talk up Lifeline enough. I'm glad they are getting a shout out in this. I adopted my dog from them and they were incredible in the process.
I have a working Great Pyrenees. These dogs are a Godsend! I live in a hollar with hills on both sides of me. My girl was about a year old. It was just at dusk, loosing light fast. One of my goats was in the throws of kidding when we heard coyotes howling, close, on my side of the ridge. My GP comes a flying down the other hill, crosses the creek and puts a run to those coyotes! Thankfully there weren't that many so they weren't as emboldened as the large pack in this story. What a scary event! I am ever so grateful I have her here! She is an important part of my farm!
What saddens me are the comments I read from people who have never run a farm, never raised livestock, are probably a bunch of city slickers who have no clue about country life, criticizing the owner. Out here, you better learn to do a lot of doctoring yourself because country vets are as scarce as hens teeth, and nearly impossible to get on the weekend or holidays. And then the government passes a new regulation in the dark of night to make it even harder, if not impossible, for us to treat our animals if need be! I'm sure there's going to be a bunch of dead animals because of it!
I don't criticize the owner for have a livestock dog. I criticize him for lying about what happened.
It's hard enough to get a vet in small town too now. We have long waiting lists in Canada, and some people have to drive to the nearest city. I don't judge the owners, or hard working farmers, period. Farmers are struggling, and these are huge bills, even if there was a vet available.
@@saintejeannedarc9460 Oh, Canada is even worse! (my husband is Canadian and we lived there for more than a few years).
Well said! out of interest what regulation have they snuck in? Greetings from Aus
@@ezlow1065 As a farmer I now can not buy antibiotics for my animals from a feed store any more. I now have to have a prescription from a vet. Doesn't sound bad on the surface, right? Here's the deal, it is EXTREMELY difficult to get a vet out to the farm. Country vets are as scarce as hens teeth around here! I am EXTREMELY lucky IF I can get one out here for an emergency in time to save the animal. More times than not, we farmers have to learn to do our own vet work. Animals can go down, and die, very quickly if they are not treated as soon as possible. I lost a goat because I did not have the proper medication on hand when I discovered her. I now make sure I have what I might need on hand. When my supply of antibiotic runs out, if I can't get a vet to give me a prescription before I actually need it, I could lose animals. A BETTER solution would have been to have antibiotics available in smaller vials. I have to buy 100ml vials, which is the smallest available. The dosage for my goats is 1-3 ml for 1-3 days (depending on why it's being given, and size of the animal).Once that vial has been opened, I have 60 days to use it before I have to throw it away. I have had to throw away 99 mls of antibiotic because I can not get it in smaller vials. See the problem?
Bless that wonderful heroic dog. So great to hear that people opened their hearts to help heal this wonderful dog.❤
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?

I love this breed. They are unique Their love us beyond. They are quiet not clingy but always there. Intelligence beyond!
Forget sit stay come…. They offer greater riches! .
I remember our first one we had back in the 80's, she was a puppy. I went out back to lay out in the sun. Slathered myself up with oil and had just laid on the grass on my towel when my dad let the dog out. And she made a bee-line for me. Jumped all over me. I was covered in white fluffy fur, all stuck to the oil lol. Wish they had a longer lifespan.
XOXOXO To Casper. My sheep dog was also a Great Pyrenees. Very loyal and loving 🥰. One day Nipper came to the back door & he came into the house and there was a man getting out of his car and said something to me and my hair stood up on the back of my neck., Nipper was walking behind me I hadn’t said anything to Nipper other than taking a step backwards . I stopped walking towards the man and Nipper sense my fear and at the same Nipper moved in front of me and growled and showed his pearly whites, teeth 🦷, to the man who got back in is car and left, I turned around called Nipper to come and we went back in house. He went to back door want out again and ran back to his sheep & goat herd to make sure they were ok. Normally Nipper never comes in the house he prefers is herd.
Wow! that's impressive!
Such a good dog ❤ I hope he gets to rest and heal now. What a hero 🐕👍
What a wonderful heartwarming story. A beautiful hero who doesn’t realise just how marvellous he is. He deserves the very best of life.
Is nobody going to mention his beautiful eyes! They are both gorgeous
What an incredible story. Bravo Casper. Glad I happened upon this story.
When I heard how many surgeries, the owners must have been in shock when he came home. Goodest boy ever!❤❤❤❤❤
Wow. Good dog! Thanks to all that saved him and helped pay the bills.
This dog is such a good brave boy, I was so happy to hear that he made it through. I had a bit of a laugh, though. The farmer said that he had taken Casper in to see if he would do a good job and could stay on the farm. Pretty sure Casper proved himself quite thoroughly 😂❤
Although he should not have to prove himself by risking a gruesome death. Does your job require YOU to do that?
He was worth whatever it took to heal him! What a dog!❤
Thank you for treating Casper! He almost gave his ‘all’ defending this sheep! Can you get a 2nd or 3rd of him so there is a ‘small army’ there to meet the predators? You have a wonderful dog. Am crying.
So glad the owner saved Casper and values his life! Amazing dog!
The owner is a POS. He was not sure whether to take him to the vet or not!
This dog is a beautiful courageous soul, deserves to be saved and loved for life.
What a blessing that he made it home 🏡
What a sweet n brave dog. Casper certainly deserves a warm n good hug n loads of unconditional love fm his owner..he's ultimate hero🐕❤❤ so loyal n brave!

What a heart warming story and such a sweet dog. I lost my great Pyrenees dog "Callie." 14 months ago and miss her greatly. Got her from a rescue center and she died of all things a lung tumor and was only 8 y/o.
Love to you. It's such a heartbreak. I lost my sweet mixed breed (9 years old, also a rescue,) about a year ago to bladder cancer, and I'm still crying. I do absolutely believe that she's in heaven...but I'll still miss her every day until I join her.
What a good boy! I just want to shower him in praise and affection. I'm so glad he made it back home.
That's a Great Pyrenees! Those dogs are loyal, caring, gentle with their masters no matter how small. We adopted ours when he was 8 weeks old and we named him Snowball. I miss my dog so much!
i am on a fixed income. I sometimes can't make it to the end of the month. But I assure you that if i had any extra money it would go to this dog. In a heartbeat.
We have a female Kusvaz, I was out in the field doing some work. A cougar broke through the tree line, she didn’t even hesitate, she took off after it. Three hours later she came up thru the field. No more cougar sightings.
These breeds are amazing.
Pyrs will protect you and your family just as vigorously. They have the 2nd strongest bite force in the dog world at 700 PSI. For comparison, a Pit Bull has a bite force of 235 PSI. They are the best family dogs as well as livestock guardians. They are very loving and can be BIG couch potatoes...until they hear or see something! Instant guard mode! They are bit barky, but if you live in a rural area, you want that, to let you know something not normal is going on. Don't expect to train them like a Golden Retriever, they don't do tricks. They protect!
Well said! My Marema is just like that! Awesome dogs!
Pyreneans are great, however if the area was infested with hordes of predators like in this case, it would make sense upgrading to Caucasian Shepherds. They are absolute monsters and would tear through any amount of coyotes without sustaining much damage.
Yeah, they arent too practical for anywhere outside of mountainous area and terain though.. i belive the Pyr and Anatolian Shepherd basically the united states version of a Kangal are the way to go in the states. @@DestroyerOfLiberals
Hell yes, you decide to treat and heal this dog. (I just wish all veterans would be treated as thoroughly.)
Dogs are such amazing creatures…. We don’t deserve these precious souls. It is true that they will lay down their lives❤❤❤
Thank you to all who donated...my turn next time. Just found this story..how great is the guy that owes him..these days with profits being so important. Your new to you dog is a gem! Blessings to all.
What a dog! Fearless, bold and protective. I don't think I want to mess with Casper's sheep, any time soon. Just look at his eyes at the 1:53 point in the video - those are the eyes of a fierce protector.
What a hero! Thank you for giving him such great medical care!
Casper and Lifeline are heroes. Thank you for this great story.
I grew up with a Great Pyrenees -- Brutus -- huge dog 175 pounds. He was the meekest, most loving dog who took orders from our two Pugs. He had another side that came out one day when a German Shepherd attacked him. What a fight! Brutus took off an ear and sent the Shepherd squealing down the street. Then he went back to waging his tail and being loving.
My mom had several Great Pyrenees dogs as a young girl living in urban Indiana. I remember her talking about them. Growing up on a horse farm, we had a St Bernard, an Old English sheepdog and various other dogs and feral cats. I wish we had some Great Pyrenees dogs too especially when I think about when our broodmares went into foal and were very vulnerable.
One of the best stories I've ever heard, Thank you to everyone who saved this dog 🐕 ❤️
What a brave angel. GPs are remarkable dogs and this beautiful boy exemplifies his breed, his heart, his soul.
I'm so glad Casper is okay. What a good boy protecting the flock.
He is an incredible dog. You are so blessed to have him.
Honor, loyalty, and unconditional love.
Excellent Casper. ❤❤❤
God bless him. And thank to all the people that helped to pay his vet bill.
The fact that he went full John Wick and chased down the other ones is kind of mind blowing.
Make sure your dog always has fresh water,good high quality food including some fresh food and whatever care it needs. And for goodness sake treat it like you would your own child. Dogs are a gift to human kind.
Dogs are the only living beings on earth capable of unconditional love.🐾♥
The perfect daily reminders of Jesus love toward us.
Purposely so. ;)
Definitely one of the best gifts ever.
After Jesus & our free will, of course.♥ ✝
What a brave, beautiful Dog. I hope he is being loved HUGE. He deserves it, as all of our dogs and cats too.
I can tell you're an incredibly proud and responsible Casper owner and well you should be. Dogs never cease to amaze. We had a collie shepherd that was a natural herding dog. He was awesome, but never anything as heroic as Casper.
This is so awesome!!! What a hero Casper is. He is a true beast.💪💪💪💪💪
