Patous : In certain areas of the Val d’Anniviers, herd protection dogs (patous) watch over the sheep. These dogs are not dangerous, but they can be protective of their herd. To avoid any inconvenience, follow these recommendations:
– Keep your distance from the herd and don’t try to approach or pet the dogs.
– Drive around the herd calmly and without sudden movements.
– Keep your dog on a leash.
