[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah. Great Pyrenees see guard dogs. I don’t know what has made them trendy but I guess they must be breeding them for some market. [/quote]

Many people think Great Pyrenees are golden retrievers except white and a little bigger.  They aren’t.  Totally different temperament.  We have a lovely Great Pyrenees mix that we got as a puppy and super mellow not at all hyper like a golden.  They were bred to guard livestock and love to roam.  Should not be biting people.  Our GP can be bossy but gets along great with other dogs, cats, horses…. And never bit anyone in his life.  GP are not aggressive dogs.

A dog this size that bites is scary.  Call the rescue and return him.[/quote]

I have a purebred Pyr that we rescued and he is absolutely a guard dog. Friendly as can be with people he knows and has been introduced properly to, also friendly when people approach us on walks and want to pet him, and excellent with children and other dogs. The caveat is our house is the area he protects, he guards our home like he’s guarding livestock, we did not train him to be a guard dog it is part of his nature. We bring him outside to meet people coming to our house, after he’s been introduced to people, when they enter our home with us he is completely fine with that. [/quote]

PP.   You know better:  The rescue thought our mix was half lab or golden.  He is the laziest, a full on coach potato.  The chihuahua is a better guard dog and the GP mix defers to her  :lol: [/quote]
Lol our Pyr is also a huge couch potato and cuddler, if we are on the couch he invites himself up to get some loving. But then if the doorbell rings he jumps up like he’s freaking Cujo![/quote]
