I'm the breeder behind Sunny Shore Farms located in Riverhead, NY. The Maremma are known for their calm and level-headed disposition. They protect their livestock, not herd them and warn predators off, keeping them safe. We're committed to raising pups that are friendly, healthy, and most importantly, thoughtful LGDs with great dispositions and temperments.
