The Maremma Sheepdog is a majestic white dog, of a large size and a rustic appearance. He is strong, active, and for his size, very lithe. He is a working dog and needs a job to keep him occupied. His function has been to guard the flock and property of the shepherd for millennia, even in situations where man is not present. He is devoted to his master but treats him as an equal and a friend. He is affectionate with people he knows. Always treat a Maremma fairly and he will turn into an indispensable guardian angel for your stock, your farm and your family.
