Just a quick introduction! The Estrela is a Breed of Mountain Dog from the Estrela Mountains in Portugal,Their main task in life is Gaurdian of the flocks,they are not a sheep dog but more of a protector of the flocks from wolves,they are still used to fulfill this role today.They are an amazing addition to any Family although a little Loud at times,

Hi Alan, been looking at this breed and Leonbergers. What are Estrelas like to train, do they like a lot of exercise, and do Estrelas make good guard dogs? Thanks!

Hi Ollie. Estrelas are used in Portugal and world wide as livestock guardian dogs. So guarding comes quite natural. If you go to Facebook Tarsneyisle Estrelas. Loads of info on there thanks Ollie.
