I wanted to add some new information for anyone else that may be experiencing chasing problems etc.. with their Shars. Since we have moved Alka back out with the stock I have slowly added more and more for her to live with. Recently I added two goat kids recently weaned that weigh only about 35-40 pounds. She is weighing around 100 pounds currently so my fear was that she was going to womp on those new little buckkids. At first she did just that. I put a drag stick on her and only fed her a small amount of kibble on the days that I had her wear the stick. I also employed the use of an air horn to stop her in the chase when I caught her, then put the stick on so she made the connection. I give her chances to do the right thing every night the stick comes off, and I don't put it back on unless I catch her in the act...on those days she gets her raw diet meals. This morning I caught her lying next to the adult buck and ram high on the knoll and just behind them were the kids and a couple of mature does, I watched her casually get up to walk over and lick the face of the buck and lay back down and no one scattered when she did this. This is a bonding ritual, and I almost never see her chase the buck anymore, but when she does she is grabbing a leg, not the neck. Happy to report, so far so good only one of the new kids has any evidence of injury and it is a leg...so apparently she is playing the dragging game with her too. Much better than the I'm going to grab you by the neck, kill you and eat you game lol! So all in all we are making progress and I wanted to report back in on our journey to LGD.
