I'm unclear what the difference is between the subject of this article, Mountain dog and Livestock guardian dog. There is certainly a great deal of overlap. Should we merge them? Richard New Forest ( talk) 20:19, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
FWIW, the viewership statistics above indicate that our readers get some utility from this article. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 21:47, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
I also note that you limited the article, and cut out the following, which are not within the ambit of Livestock guardian dog. I put them back.
Quite apart from the working dogs listed above, are the following:

I took your suggestions not only to heart, but acted upon them. I do think the article is improved as a result. Thank you. 7&6=thirteen ( talk) 15:44, 15 January 2011 (UTC) Stan
- No problem, but we still seem to have the "other dogs and animals" section... There is an argument for listing these in a "See also" section, but I can't see how to justify including them in the body of the article. Richard New Forest ( talk) 17:57, 15 January 2011 (UTC) [End of copied material]
It still seems clear to me that the items in the "other dogs and animals" section do not belong in this article. Can anyone think of a justification for including them? Richard New Forest ( talk) 14:07, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
Why not start a category and include this article and those that it mentions? Might be fun. Anyone objections? Chrisrus ( talk) 16:43, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Merger.
Oppose You merged these. Without notifying the contributors! I created
Mountain dog, and was not notified. You deleted
Bernese Mountain Dog and
Leonberger, proving the articles were not redundant or coterminous. There is no indication in the article history that this latest merger proposal was ever discussed or proposed at
Mountain dog.
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
There was an o'er hasty merger of the latter article into the former. They posted it on one page and left the other off. As the creator of the latter article, I would have thought somebody would have notified me. But merger discussions are subject to abuse and quiet rigging of the process. The merger discussions are NOW ongoing at Talk:Livestock guardian dog#Merger proposal and Talk:Mountain dog#Merger proposal. I wrote the latter article many years ago, and it needs additional sources, particularly ones that use the phrase "mountain dog." The breeds that are listed on these two pages do not completely overlap. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 21:17, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Cavalryman: You
reverted my edit which removed {{
disambiguation}}
and added
Category:Dog breeds. The page is not a disambiguation page: it lists only partial title matches, and has disambiguation page style errors (more than one blue link per line in the lead, and references). It is, however, useful, and would be better classified as an article. I think your objection is about the category. I've therefore removed the disambiguation tag and left it uncategorised.

Before this article was gutted, it had lots of information, links and sources. The phrase has a commonly understood meaning and is frequently use to describe various dog breeds. So you might want to click on the link. But I have no patience for edit warring over this. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 16:36, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
