Prancing Pony Juliet - $3500
Juliet – The Perfect “Plug & Play” Livestock Guardian
1-Year-Old Female | Ready to Work
Meet Juliet, a confident and adaptable young Maremma who embodies everything we love about this remarkable breed. At just one year old, Juliet has already proven herself as an excellent livestock guardian while maintaining the gentle, affectionate temperament that makes Maremmas such treasured farm companions.
What Makes Juliet Special: Juliet is that rare combination of calm confidence and natural leadership that experienced farmers dream of—but she’s so well-balanced that she’s perfect for beginners too. Her steady temperament means she won’t be rattled by farm chaos, curious children, or unexpected situations. She approaches new experiences with the quiet assurance of a dog who knows her job and takes pride in doing it well.
Her Livestock Guardian Excellence: With extensive experience protecting goats and exposure to horses, poultry, barn cats, and various farm visitors, Juliet has the well-rounded foundation that sets exceptional livestock guardians apart from average ones. Her alert but calm demeanor means she’s protective without being reactive—the hallmark of a truly reliable LGD.
The Ideal Match: Juliet would thrive with:
- New LGD owners who want a confident starter dog that won’t overwhelm them
- Families with children who need a gentle but protective guardian
- Any size operation from backyard flocks to larger farms
- Owners seeking a leader who can mentor a puppy or future second dog
- Owners of a male LGD who need a female partner for their dog
Her natural leadership qualities mean she does best as the leader in a pack with an easygoing male partner or with (possibly) a more submissive female companion—she’s not looking for a fight, just respect for her capable judgment.
Ready to Protect Your Peace of Mind: Juliet represents the best of our breeding program: health-tested bloodlines, extensive early socialization, and the calm confidence that comes from proper preparation. She’s ready to step into her role as your farm’s guardian while becoming a beloved member of your family.
Juliet comes with our complete health guarantee, lifetime support, and the satisfaction of knowing you’re welcoming a truly exceptional guardian to your farm.
"Cassie" - Prancing Pony Cassiopeia - $3500
Cassie – The Gentle Soul Looking for Her Perfect Partner
1-Year-Old Female | Sweet & Thoughtful Livestock Guardian
Meet Cassie, a tender-hearted Maremma who approaches her livestock guardian duties with gentle dedication and quiet wisdom. At one year old, Cassie represents the softer side of the Maremma temperament—she’s protective without being pushy, alert without being anxious, and confident in her abilities while remaining beautifully humble.
What Makes Cassie Special: Cassie is the dog who notices everything but never rushes to judgment. Her thoughtful nature means she carefully assesses situations before acting, making her an ideal livestock guardian for families who value a measured, gentle approach to livestock protection. She thrives on positive attention and forms deep, loyal bonds with her people.
Her Guardian Style: With solid experience protecting goats and exposure to various farm animals, Cassie excels with calm, steady livestock. She’s learned that quiet confidence often works better than dramatic displays—a wisdom that serves her well in her livestock guardian role. Her moderate energy level means she’s alert and ready when needed, but content to supervise peacefully during quiet times.
The Perfect Partnership: Cassie would flourish with:
- Families with calm livestock like mature goats or sheep who won’t trigger her chase instincts
- Quieter farm environments where her gentle nature can shine
- A confident canine partner who can provide leadership and companionship
- Patient owners who appreciate her thoughtful, non-aggressive approach to guarding and realize that she is still maturing and needs careful management and stock selection to prevent her from practicing bad habits
Cassie is happiest as part of a team—she’s a loyal lieutenant rather than a commanding general, making her ideal for farms with an established older LGD or owners planning to add a second livestock guardian.
Ready for Her Forever Home: If you’re looking for a guardian who protects with grace rather than force, who thinks before she acts, and who will bond deeply with your family while keeping your animals safe, Cassie might be your perfect match. Her gentle spirit and dedication make her especially wonderful for families with children who want to experience the joy of a truly sweet-natured family guardian.
Cassie comes with our complete health guarantee, lifetime support, and our commitment to helping her transition smoothly into her new role as your family’s gentle protector.

Give her important work to do and some love and attention, and she will repay you with her devotion and faithful service.
Perfect for: livestock owners who want a proven guardian immediately, prefer a smaller dog, and families who prefer one devoted dog and appreciate a mature working partner.
