It's never too late to start! I retired to homestead on the slopes of Mauna Loa, an active volcano. I relate snippets of my endeavor on my blog : www.kaufarmer.blogspot.com
In modern times the only right way forward is to come back to nature.

See Hes wrote:I have 2 stray brothers and one bitch and beside that the two bros are growling permanently to each other (which is normal as long they not start fighting, then it's time to interrupt) all three are getting well along.
Especially when it is time for alarming or protecting the turf they join together and even coordinate their approach towards the intruder/burglar or other "disturbance".
Well raised they will give their life for you as a pack.
Below picture shows one of the brothers after he got stabbed by a burglar 6 years ago.
That fellow managed to knife one but even with very serious wounds he and his brother brought the culprit to the ground and prepared him proper for the hospital.
My dog had to stay almost two month in the dog hospital and I spent almost 200k Thai baht (5500 USD) to get him back to life.
Despite the wounds he would have never made it on his own, the Burglar was drugged with Yaa Baa and felt nothing until the 2nd dog arrived and pulled him down to the ground.
The 2nd dog had some cuts but nothing that serious as his brother.
From then I decided 3 dogs is the right number for a pack if you have enough land to let them freely run.
YOU as owner also need to train them proper so that they not attack anyone who visits you and enter your turf without expecting the dogs.
As soon the intruder shows aggression or pulling a gun or knife he is fair game.
Also they should not take any food handed or thrown by a stranger.
weeks in tears, a daily visit at the hospital and still I thank the doctor and his team not to give up our little boy..
