We acquired Sage from Whispering Aspen Ridge Maremma's in Saskatchewan. Born and raised with livestock, Sage is very affectionate with her humans, and is always the first at the gate to greet you! A serious guardian, she is exceptionally gentle with all of her charges, big and small. She is particularity good with our feathered friends, and has been poultry safe with very little guidance.
Sage is a good size for a female Maremma, weighing about 90 pounds - although she is still growing! We expect her to reach approximately 100 pounds at maturity. Sage's nurturing, sweet personality makes her a favorite of everyone who meets her!

Handsome Cayenne is from Mountain Mist Maremma's, located in Swan Lake, Manitoba. He is a big boy, already over 100 pounds and still has alot of room to fill out!
Cayenne and Sage work diligently protecting their livestock, and have been together since they were young puppies. Cayenne is a loveable goof with his people and the house and herding dogs, but he's a force to be reckoned with if he feels his charges are threatened. He's a beautiful, strong boy and we are looking forward to see how he continues to mature into his role.
