I’m going to be honest with you: predators have better calendars than most of us.
They know exactly when your farm will be filled with small, wobbly lambs and kids who can’t yet run effectively. They’re already planning their strategy while you’re still thinking about planning yours.
The farmers who sleep well during lambing and kidding season? They’re the ones who planned ahead. They didn’t wait until they lost their first precious baby to buy a livestock guardian dog—they strategically placed their Maremma reservation weeks or months before chaos arrived.
These aren’t random freebies or desperate discounts—they’re premium value-added packages (worth $125-$800!) designed to solve the real problems you face when adding a livestock guardian dog during spring’s coordination chaos.
Two Bonus Tiers = Flexibility for Different Timelines
TIER 1: Early Valentine Bonus (Payment by Feb 10, 11:59pm)
Every package is designed to actually HELP your farm and family—board credits when weather delays fencing, shipping coordination when you’re juggling kidding or lambing season with adding a new LGD, premium equipment that sets you and your new Maremma up for success.
Here’s How This Works (Please Read the 3 Steps Carefully!)
This is super important: bonuses lock in when PAYMENT is received, not when you express interest. Just like any sale at any store—you get the sale price when you complete the purchase, not when you think about it.
Every single puppy has benefitted from our comprehensive socialization and livestock guardian dog development program. All are living full-time with goats with exposure to other livestock, and all are well-socialized with children and adults.They’re exceptional LGDs at different stages offering unique advantages.
This Offer Also Applies to Future Litter Reservations:
$500 reserves your spot on the master list
Bonuses lock in NOW even if you get your puppy months from now
Balance ($3,000) due when your puppy is 12 weeks old
Perfect for strategic planners finishing spring projects or planning for the future
Investment: $3,500 standard puppy pricing (not discounted—you’re getting premium dogs at regular pricing PLUS strategic bonuses)
💜 We also have started adolescents and fully trained adult LGDs available. Priced individually according to their training level.
Learn property boundaries without the stress of protecting newborns
Establish their presence so predators know there’s a livestock guardian dog BEFORE they test your defenses
Build confidence through gradual introduction, not crisis management
Planning ahead means sleeping through spring nights instead of doing midnight predator patrols with a spotlight.
Important: What Does NOT Count as a Reservation
I want to be crystal clear to avoid any disappointment:
❌ Emailing “I want it” before deadline but paying after ❌ Getting an invoice sent before deadline but paying after ❌ “I’ll pay first thing tomorrow” on deadline day ❌ Starting your application on deadline day (new clients need review time!)
✅ Payment completed and received before deadline ✅ Confirmation email from me before deadline ✅ Application submitted early enough for review + payment processing
Payment = reservation. Interest = no reservation.
This protects everyone and ensures fair access to bonuses.
Your flock or herd deserves protection. You deserve peacefull sleep This spring deserves strategic planning instead of desperate scrambling.
Love your livestock—give them a Prancing Pony Farm Maremma livestock guardian dog! ❤️

P.S. – Future reservation bonus eligibility is HUGE for strategic planners. Lock in $125-800 in bonuses NOW with a $500 non-refundable reservation fee, even if you won’t get your puppy until summer or fall. When your LGD finally comes home months from now, those bonuses come with them. Smart planning = better outcomes.
P.P.S. – Full transparency: This is my first time trying strategic seasonal bonuses like this. I’m genuinely curious whether these packages solve real coordination problems for families or if I’m overthinking it. If this experiment works well and actually helps people, I might try similar offerings during other strategic livestock seasons (maybe fall flock building? pre-winter preparation?). No promises, but if I do—email subscribers hear first, always. So even if you’re not ready right now, staying on this list means you won’t miss out if we do something like this again. And hey, you get weekly farm stories, LGD content, and puppy photos either way. 😊
