Our Maremmas

We breed, raise and sell maremma sheepdogs (livestock guard dogs) at our farm in Goode, Virginia. We have maremmas for sale and offer maremma stud services.

Maremmas are originally from Maremma in Tuscany, Italy, bred for centuries to guard herds of sheep. These Italian dogs continue to be suitable for guarding livestock from predators such as bears, mountain lions, coyotes and other dogs. We use them to guard our alpaca herd. Maremmas can also be good for guarding sheep, llamas, goats and other herd animals and livestock. Maremmas are sometimes referred to as livestock guard dogs (or LGD's). They are intelligent and independent-minded and not intended for herding, but excellent at guarding and will naturally stay close to their herd. 

All of our maremma livestock guard dogs are registered with the Maremma Sheepdog Club of America. We have personally placed dogs from Chicago to Arizona to Puerto Rico. We will be taking reservations for maremma puppies; if you are interested, please contact us. All dogs are available to see at the farm or we can send you photos or videos.

Learn more about purchasing properly trained maremmas at Maremma SheepDog Club of America or call us for more information or to reserve a puppy from our farm. 
Meet our maremmas (photos below): Enzo (birthdate 10/2012 male), Bella (birthdate 2/2013 female), and Bianca (birthdate 2/2013 female), Luigi, Mia and Rosie.

Photos of maremma sheepdogs and maremma sheepdog puppies on the alpaca farm, guarding alpacas.
​Maremmas are instinctively good guard dogs and are happy to live among the alpacas, guarding them.
While they are very affectionate with people they know, maremmas may need to be introduced to strangers before they will allow them near their herd. Maremmas have thick white coats (matching the color of the sheep herds they were originally bred to guard).

If you are considering purchasing maremma puppies in order to serve as livestock guard dogs, please contact us to learn more about the breed, their suitability for your purposes, and the availability of puppies.
