Sheep and their guardians
May 13, 2023 in Italy ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
Shit... Next to the road some sheep and their guardians. White, fluffy, double of the size of Lupo ... just 3 at the beginning.... Just moments later...I guess 8.... That's what I have counted... Barking and approaching fast. From more sides....

And Lupo does not react like i want and walk further fast...

But luckily they are afraid of me and the hiking pole.
Me shouting and using the whistle...

But they follow us for at least 500m... Even we get more distance to the sheep.Read more
Traveler I can imagine how this can disrupt your moment and make things get really tense... I'm glad you past it in a good way.

Traveler Thanks! Actually we are a little bit used to it since the beginning in Sicily. But each situation can be different. Actually without an open dog, I would not have so much trouble. I think as a hinter without animal, it should be fine. But so many huge dogs next to you and you need to pay the flock....wow
