Great Pyreneeses

Whenever you hear of a Pyrenean Mountain dog in the United States, you are actually talking about the Great Pyrenees. This is a very large breed of dog that is used to guard livestock. However, it is also important to keep in mind that this dog has also been used for many other things as well. It is a very old breed and was first used by Basque people, who actually lived in the Pyrenees Mountains. After that the Great Pyrenees actually became the royal French court dog. This lasted from the Middle ages up to the nineteenth century. The Great Pyrenees was used in World War II as well. This dog was used to take different kinds of weapons to and from Spain and France through the Pyrenean Mountain range.

One reason why the Great Pyrenees is such a big dog is because it is related to a lot of other very big livestock guardian dogs. One of these dogs is the Maremma Sheepdog (that comes from Hungary). Another dog it is related to is the Anatolian Shepherd (which comes from Turkey). So as you can see, this is a dog that has a very rich background, and that is what makes it such a good dog. This dog is very big, but at the same time, they are very good as a family dog. Of course, the main thing that you have to remember is that they are very big, and they are going to need room to run. So do not get one of these dogs unless you have the room for it. They are very friendly towards the people that they live with, but because they are guard dogs, they tend to dislike other people.

Even when you are looking to buy Great Pyrenees puppies for sale or Great Pyrenees for sale you can tell that they are going to be big dogs. Of course, big could be an understatement. In fact, these dogs can weigh as much as 90 to 130 pounds! They usually only come in one of three colors: white, gray or tan. White is the less seen of the colors, and at the same time, it is still one of the most popular colors to look for. This is a color that use to help them blend into snow; they are a mountain dog after all. As the Great Pyrenees puppies grow up, you can see that their coats become very thick and long. As the dogs grow up, they tend to lose their white color. However, one of four will keep their white color, and those are the ones that everyone wants to own. That is why they are so popular.

If you want a dog that is going to be able to be everything that you want in a dog, you can not go wrong with the Great Pyrenees. These are dogs that like to please people, and at the same time, they love to work. However, unlike a lot of other working dogs, these dogs are very friendly at the same time. Of course, you are not going to think they are friendly unless it is your dog, because they do not like random people very much.
