These pups are 11 weeks old and came to be from a woman in Missouri. she did a fantastic job socializing these pups and getting them off to the right start with livestock. They are both male, and are AKC registered. I plan to rotate them individually between the house and sheep (and chickens) so they will both be well socialized with us, our other dogs and also the stock. They will be shown when they are old enough. I am so happy with these two. I have never had a LGD breed before and am amazed at how different they are from other pups. They are much more serious and very calm. And they are great with the chickens too! Now I just need to think of good names!

Sorry can't help it.

Good Luck with your First "LGD" experience. I truly enjoyed the experience I had with mine.

Look forward to hearing what their names are and how they are adjusting.

Good looking pups, best of luck with them. Go google turkish names for dogs and find some good turk names for them. Have fun with your guys and keep us updated.

thanks! I have googled names until I am blue in the face and can't find a thing. I am looking at a language translator site now to see if I can find a good turkish word that has an appropriate meaning behind it. and then it also has to be a name I can shorten for an easy call name. I'll get it...in the mean time they are both just "pup pup". Works for them! lol!

Fergus and Rob Roy! They are very beautiful! The first pup looks more dominant than the other...is he? Keep us posted on their work and progress?

Thanks everyone. Beekissed, so far, neither one has shown to be more dominate than the other. They play-fight a good bit and sometimes red collar is on top, other times it's blue collar.

They are so cute! Congrats on finding them.
I think they are Athos and Apollo. :)

I am thinking about Otis and Arlo. Or maybe Simon for one of them. Otis seems to fit the goofy red collar one.
