Dogs on the farm: 255 farms where dogs have real work

A farm dog isn't a pet in the usual sense. On working farms, dogs have a job: they guard the farmyard, herd livestock to pasture, or keep wild animals away from the fields. You can observe this firsthand on these 255 farms. It's a particularly memorable experience for children to see a working dog at its actual job, far removed from the city park.

The farms are mainly located in Salzburg, South Tyrol, Bavaria, Rhineland-Palatinate, and Styria. Herding dogs are particularly common on organic farms, as these often rely on natural methods of herding.

What distinguishes farm animals from guest dogs?

This page lists farms where dogs live as farm animals, meaning they are part of the operation. This is different from farms that simply welcome dogs. If you want to bring your own dog, you need a farm in the "Dogs Allowed" category. These two categories are not mutually exclusive: some farms keep dogs themselves and also welcome visiting dogs. A quick look at each farm's description will show you which applies.

🐕 Herding dogs

Border Collies, mountain dogs, and similar breeds work with livestock daily. On alpine farms, you can see them herding the cows to pasture.

🏠 Farm dogs

They guard the grounds, announce visitors, and know the boundaries of the farm precisely. For children, this is often their first real contact with a dog that has a clear daily routine.

👨‍👩‍👧 Family dogs

On many family farms, the farm dog is also the family dog: tame with guests, but watchful as soon as a stranger approaches the gate. A real asset for holidays with children.

247 farms welcome your four-legged friend as a guest: bookable immediately, with exercise area and dog-friendly hosts.
