Luca is a cattle dog, Anatolian Shepherd mix from a southern rescue.  He kicks all predators off the farm, herds when asked and keeps us laughing with his antics.  Maria, our esteemed dog matriarch who passed in 2021, taught him how to hunt and now he is a proficient Vole Eradicator. 

Luca is teaching Witch and Cheeks, our new Carolina Dogs, how to be amazing farm dogs. They have learned a lot in the last two months. Witch and Cheeks are sisters from the same litter, and their mother, Bandit, is looking for her forever home. She has the same cuddly, outgoing personality as Cheeks. Cheeks and Witch’s uncle Tengu, full brother to Bandit, was the UKC champion Carolina Dog in 2021. We are hoping that Witch and Cheeks can help Luca keep up with organic pest control on the farm. They are both proficient herders of ducks and are finding their rolls on the farm.
