The Maremma Sheepdog is a majestic, independent spirit, deeply devoted to their chosen flock, which often includes their human family. They possess a quiet, watchful intelligence, always scanning their surroundings for anything amiss. Don't expect effusive greetings; their affection is expressed in unwavering protection and calm reassurance. Historically bred to guard livestock alone, they thrive with purpose, and while affectionate, they aren’t typically cuddly lapdogs. This ancient lineage makes them superb guardians, but also means they can be wary of strangers and require patient, consistent guidance to channel their protective instincts appropriately. Living with a Maremma is a partnership built on mutual respect and understanding their deep-seated need to keep their loved ones safe.
