The latest Cheetah Outreach progress report

With the help of some recent corrective training, Keno is again working very well in the veldt. He never leaves his post amongst the herd and is vigilant in his protective endeavours. He also does not tolerate strangers amongst the sheep, a commitment profoundly demonstrated when Rooibos tea inspectors dared to enter the area in which his sheep were residing. Keno clearly marked their lack of welcome on the premises. He is still being monitored and will continue with the training for at least the next three months. His owner is happy to invest this time into Keno and will reap the rewards of doing so in the future.

Zack has formed a great bond with his herd and remains with them as they graze. Through his loyal protection, he has proven himself to be a very trustworthy, attentive, and protective young guardian. We are now working on improving his trust in other humans. He will be moved back to his original pasture with his herd shortly where his owner will continue building a bond with him. 

Titan is doing an amazing job! He has been working on a remote part of the property and has had no losses with his herd even when leopard tracks were found in the area. He did, however, have a run-in with some baboons but he survived this encounter with only a few scratches. His owner is monitoring the situation to ensure that he is safe.

Venus is doing very well; she has adapted in the veldt and can always be found close to her herd. Her owner is very happy with her progress and commitment to protecting the livestock. She is developing into a very trustworthy and attentive young guardian.
