Get an Anatolian Shepherd, not only are the fabulous dogs to have in the family, you won't see cougars or other predators hanging around your place. We've had ours for four years and while the neighbors - 20 acres apart - are bothered by bears, cougar, even wolves now, they don't mess with our place. Just the presence of an Anatolian is usually enough to make predators avoid your area.
