question · Abruzzes And Maremma Shepherd Dog
Does your Maremma prefer being outdoors?
answer · Abruzzes And Maremma Shepherd Dog
Oh, definitely! My Maremma takes her job as the watchdog very seriously. If the mailman even breathes too loudly, she’s on high alert. It’s funny because while she looks intimidating, she’s such a sweetheart once she knows who belongs. Maremmas have a strong instinct to protect their territory, which makes them great guardians.
answer · Abruzzes And Maremma Shepherd Dog
A Maremma Sheepdog can be a challenge for first-time owners, but it’s not impossible. They are very protective and independent, which can lead to stubborn behavior. Early socialization and consistent training are crucial. They can be amazing companions, especially if you understand their nature. It's like having a giant, fluffy guardian by your side.

Is it just mine, or does your Maremma always know when someone's outside before you do?
