Colorado Mountain Dogs are a wonderful combination of livestock guardian and family dog. Bred for temperament first, appearance second, so that you get a superior animal guardian that is also a loving member of the family. Read more on our website listed below.

We're open again after a wonderful Christmas break celebrating the birth of our Savior with our family!

We still have a few puppies available (male and female). They are 14 weeks old, registered Colorado Mountain Dogs, and 1/4 Anatolian (out of Quirk) and 3/4 Pyrenees (out of Cedrus). Currently $950 but cost will increase after additional training when sheep arrive and rabies shot in a few weeks.

Last weekend before Christmas break to save on PUPPY SALE - after we reopen on January 2nd puppies will revert to $950 price. If they hit 4 months old, the price is $1250 due to their extra training (we plan to post videos by the end of January explaining our training regimen). Check out TenTalentsFarm.com to see available pups. And have a wonderful Christmas season!

33 TREES LOST TO BEETLES! We called a forest ranger from El Paso County Extension to check our trees earlier this year, and he found 13 beautiful green trees with active infestations. Those had to come down by April and were the hardest to part with. These are the remaining trees that were already dead and beetles long gone to do their damage elsewhere. We're going to have the ranger out again early Fall to check for newly infested trees. Hopefully, we've done our work well and won't have more. ALL THE RAIN WE'VE HAD HAS BEEN A BLESSING 'CAUSE ONLY WELL HYDRATED TREES CAN FIGHT BACK. THANK YOU, LORD!

Amphie is our 4 year old dog of the week for sale. He's very active because he's half Maremma, 1/4 Akbash, and 1/4 Kuvasvz, but those traits make him bark less. Good with livestock, at least he was last summer, so probably needs to be retrained somewhat. Sweet guy, but more protective than a pure Pyrenees. Selling as a retired stud and he will come with neuter contract (his pups cannot be registered as CMDs). $300 or best offer.

I'm sure many of you have given up on us, but WE'RE BACK! Last year was our roughest year yet as Rich (husband) had double foot amputation after 5 weeks in the hospital. Next came lots and lots of doctor's appointments (5-6 a week), and if you've never tried getting someone into a car without feet, it's a challenge! Any spare time was spent switching our house over to handicapped accessible, but God blessed us with an unexpected inheritance to help with expenses. Rich is doing much better now and beginning to learn how to walk with prosthetics, and Paul and I are trying to get back to business. We're starting with cutting down on the number of dogs we have, so if you're interested in an older dog at a greatly reduced price, check out our website: TenTalentsFarm.com

7 puppies born Jan 30th and doing well. We thought all the color in our Fall puppies was coming from our half Anatolian girls, but obviously Cedrus (the sire) throws color. These guys are adorable but may lighten with age as our Fall puppies did (check our photo gallery - the coloring is very similar). Both male and female pups available.

Back from our week's vacation at Disneyland - now back at work.
Next planned breeding in February from Fiona and Cedrus.

12/30/2021

No puppies remaining - next litter expected in April out of Fiona and Cedrus (puppies will have the traditional long haired all-white look). Not certain if we are breeding either Spensa or Quirk this year; I guess it will depend on demand. HOPE ALL OF YOU HAD A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS SEASON!

One male, one female available as of this posting. Currently 4 months old so some of the puppy stage has already been covered, and they've had all shots. You get more training for a reduced price as we want to find good homes for these two before winter. Text us at 719-244-4468 to make an appointment. PS These two follow the coat pattern of their half Anatolian mom so will be shorter haired, but handle the cold just like their furrier siblings.

6 weeks old and growing fast. Puppies now live around both chickens and goats, are happily chewing away on Kong chew toys filled with kibble, and are learning to be gentle when taking treats so as not to bite fingers.

Our puppies are now four weeks old and doing great. They are receiving "responsiveness training" so that they learn to pay attention to the person working with them by sitting and looking at them for further instruction. Lots of human interaction is also increasing as we introduce them to our friends.

We are planing on starting visitation on Friday 7/23 (after business insurance is taken care of). We have 9 puppies (5 males / 4 females) but 4 are already sold. Next litter will be our first Anatolian/ Pyrenees mix due beginning of August. Call now to set up appointments: 719-244-4468.

Puppies are 3 weeks and doing well. They've been exposed to many various sounds (thunder, gun shots, laughing children, trains, etc.) this past week as well as receiving handling from us. We are currently increasing human contact by bringing in other people and starting potty training by providing a "litter" box beside their bed filled with dirt, the substrate we want them to get used to eliminating on (as opposed to your lawn). When they are older and more mobile, we decrease their house size so that they are forced outside to eliminate (puppies/dogs won't eliminate in their sleeping area if it's not large).

Puppies arrived June 16 from Fiona and Amphie. All are doing well and training is started in the form of lots of handling and various sound exposure. Sorry, but they won't be available for viewing until they are a little older and have a stronger constitution. We'll keep you all posted.
