Janez Kržič, a farmer from Prevalje pod Krimom, has been protecting his herd of forty goats with an enclosure from high electric fences, since 2015. He received the equipment from the LIFE DINALP BEAR project.
Besides shepherds, working dogs played an important role in history of shepherding. The main task of the livestock guarding dogs is to protect the herd from the predator, which separates them from the shepherd dogs, which guide and manage the herd.
