Abstract

Pastirski psi so namenjeni za delo z rejnimi živalmi, in sicer za njihovo varovanje pred plenilci. Pomembno je, da ti psi ne kažejo plenilskega nagona proti svoji čredi ali tropu, da so samozavestni, zanesljivi in delujejo kot del črede ali tropa. Glede na zgodovinska odkritja se domneva, da se je njihova uporaba začela skupaj z udomačitvijo drobnice. Pastirski psi izvirajo iz območja Evrope in Azije. Njihova uporaba skozi čas ni bila neprekinjena, z izjemo nekaterih območjih. Zaradi novih okoljevarstvenih gibanj, ki se osredotočajo na varovanje in ohranjanje populacij velikih zveri se potreba po varovanju čred in tropov rejnih živali povečuje. Ena izmed alternativ za varovanje pred napadi zveri je uporaba pastirskih psov. Posledično se je uporaba pastirskih psov ponovno uvedla, na nekaterih območjih tudi na novo vzpostavila. Iz študij, ki so preučevale pastirske pse na območjih, kjer jih prej ni bilo, je bilo ugotovljeno, da so psi učinkovita metoda za preprečevanje napadov zveri, kljub morebitnemu negativnemu vplivu na neciljne živalske vrste. Učinkovitost uporabe se razlikuje med pasmami psov. Odvisna je tudi od vzgoje psa, prostora v katerem varuje rejne živali, gostote in vrste plenilcev v njegovi okolici in razpoložljivosti ter vrsti plena, ki jih ima plenilec v tem okolju na voljo.

Secondary title: Grazing with livestock guarding dogs
Secondary abstract: Livestock guarding dogs (LGDs) are designed to work with farm animals and protect them from predators. It is important that these dogs do not show predatory instincts towards their herd, that they are confident and reliable and behave as part of the herd. According to historical findings, it is believed that their use began with the domestication of small ruminants. LGDs originated in the European and Asian regions. Their use has not been continuous over time, except in some areas. Due to new environmental movements focused on the protection and conservation of large carnivore populations, the protection of livestock herds is becoming increasingly important. One of the alternatives for protection is the use of LGDs. As a result, the use of LGDs has been reintroduced and even re-established in some areas. Studies examining LGDs in areas where they were previously absent have found them to be an effective method of predator prevention, despite the potential negative impacts on non-target animal species. The effectiveness of protection varies from dog breed to dog breed. It also depends on the dog's upbringing, the location where it guards, the density and type of predators in its environment, and the availability and type of prey available to the predator in that environment.
