Since the 1540-1600 time period the Navajo have raised ( and continue too) sheep, goats, horses and had dogs for sheep herding. Some people have had cattle but they have never been as popular. Before that time period, they had dogs and perhaps domestic turkeys as did the neighboring Pueblo peoples.
