Our Great Pyrenees are not only livestock guardians on our farm, but also a part of our family. We believe welcoming an animal, whether it be as a pet or as livestock, is a lifelong commitment. We take pride in giving our animals the best life we can while they live out their days here on the farm. It is our hope to share our forever kind of love of Great Pyrenees with you! 

Forever A Part of Our Family

What Our Puppies’ New Families Are Saying

“After the loss of our Great Pyrenees we knew we wanted another one because the breed is nothing shy of amazing. While doing research on YouTube, Willow Ridge Acres popped into our feed. After watching and getting inspired by their vlogs, we contacted them and it changed our lives. This is a family with a love for all things. We had the sincere privilege of meeting the Jacobs Family and were given a tour of their farm. It was a wonderful experience for our family. The farm is well maintained and all of the animals are so loved and very well taken care of. They are responsible and conscientious breeders of their Great Pyrenees. So on September 29, 2021, in addition to meeting the family, we got our Luna. She has filled our lives with more joy than we can express, and we will be adding a male from this litter to our family as well. We are truly blessed to have crossed paths with Willow Ridge Acres. Not only have we enriched our home with a graceful Great Pyrenees, but we have been blessed with new friends.”

Willow Ridge Acres are the absolute best family. We are so grateful we got to pick our newest family addition and livestock guardian dog (Axle) from such great people. Axle has been very healthy, he was well taken care of, loved even before we picked him up and has the perfect temperament. Highly recommend them!

We had the chance to receive a canine friend from Willow Ridge Acres. We are very happy with our new dog because he is caring and loving. Although we did not know about Great Pyrenees that much, with the help of Willow Ridge Acres on youtube, we were able to find a new member to our family.

Great Pyrenees Puppies

Gentle, Confident, Fearless Livestock Guardians

Welcome to WW Livestock Guard Dogs and WW Boer Goats, located in Prairie Lea, TX

We work with our dogs from the time they are born. They are handled gently, but they are not made pets. They are raised with the sheep and goats and travel with and learn from their mothers.

We are a small operation, so we can easily monitor the pups progress. We give the pups their immunizations and de-worming regularly. We do not give a rabies shot, as most our pups are sold before theyare sixteen weeks old.

Please call us with any questions you may have about these wonderful animals. If you are interested, please request a recent picture. Although they are big dogs that mature slowly, they seem to change in appearance from day to day.

We would love to discuss your interest in our animals, please feel free to contact us via email or by phone.

You can reach Connie at 512-581-2479 or Jimmy at 512-496-2410.
