Hello,

The use of a Guard Llama was not really discussed. Iowa State University did a major study on gaurd dogs versus guard llamas and a llama was superior in every way.

With sheep they are the perfect match.  They wear the same clothes, eat the same food, and quickly develop a protective  bond.  They have a wicked kick, and will lower thier neck and plow towards the prey.

Only one is necessary, in fact, if you have two, they don't bond with the sheep.  One wether.

Google: guard llamas.

We had one protect our goats in a cayote prone area.  They are perfect for the task.
