I also have a 4 year old male maremma. He is very friendly and gentle. A bit shy and a bit cheeky. He is looking for a new home.  He didnt quite make it as a working boy. He prefers to be with people. He is very friendly and has reasonable recall for a maremma with people he knows.

He is desexed and all his vet work is up to date

Maremmas are very protective and are defence barkers- so they will bark at anything strange or anyone different  that approaches their home turf.

Maremmas are independent thinkers and protective of their family and territory.
The breed was developed to protect sheep and will bond to their new family such as chickens, sheep, goats, and even their human family and defend them against  threats.

Joanie is available for adoption and we are taking expressions of interest for this beautiful, sweet girl. Joanie is looking for a loving home on acreage where she can be a cherished companion to her family. Joanie is growing in confidence and good with lambs, sheep, goats, cows, horses and chickens. Joanie is quite an independent girl, but likes to stay close to the house and her humans, but will still deter predators.

She is two, sterilised, microchipped and vaccinated. Joanie has always lived with other dogs so will thrive in a home where she has another dog for companionship. Joanie is quite shy and you will need to be committed to spend time building her trust while she bonds to you, animals and property, which must have good fencing. She has a beautiful temperament and has been trustworthy around my 8 year old grandson.

Please call Carolyn on 0474182413 or send message for more information on Joanie and our adoption process.
We match each dog to the home environment to ensure a successful rehoming
Adoption fee $850

several lovely adult dogs who are looking for good forever homes. They are great with poultry and are used to sheep and cattle.

West Coast Maremma Rescue is seeking expressions of interest for Cooper.
Cooper is a two year old male. He is a lovely boy who is showing strong guardian traits. Cooper is good with our stock and chickens and has been trustworthy with ewes and lambs and is good with children. He has energy to burn and has grown into a confident, independent dog. He is good with other dogs, but can be dominant. He would suit a working home where he is also a loved member of the family and working in a partnership with his "Shepherd". Cooper is a fence climber so will need fences 1500mm high or rural farm fencing with a hot wire. Cooper is sterilised, vaccinated and wormed.

Nino is 18 months old and has blossomed into a terrific dog. He is going well with chickens, goats, sheep, cows and horses. Nino loves his humans and is suited to a home where he can be part of the family, but have a job to do protecting your poultry or stock. He is still young and will require an owner committed to continue guiding and supervising him, especially while he is bonding to you, your animals and property. Maremma are not solitary dogs and flouish in a pack so he needs a home preferably with another Maremma or Livestock Guardian dog. Excellent fencing is required and you need to be willing to be mentored to ensure a successful rehoming. Nino is sterilised, vaccinated and wormed. Nino is sound, however x-rays show mild subluxation of left hip.
Adoption fee is $850
