If you're looking for a big dog with an even bigger heart, the Great Pyrenees may be the dog for you! These gentle giants are fiercely loyal to their owners and make great family pets. Great Pyrenees are cuddly, adorable dogs that love to play and have a good time. They are smart and hardworking, but they have a mind of their own. Because of their tendency to be mischievous, these dogs are best suited for someone with prior dog ownership experience. It may take a little work to train a Great Pyrenees to follow your rules, but once you do, you'll have a companion for life. Great Pyrenees were originally bred to guard shepherds' flocks. Today, they find work as service dogs because they love to be close to people who matter to them. They're especially good for nursing home residents or people who use wheelchairs, as they're tall enough to stand beside someone in a chair. These dogs may also find "work" as your family watchdog, as they have superior hearing and a loud bark. However, if you don't have work for your Great Pyrenees, regular obedience training and lots of playtime will still give your dog the job fulfillment he craves. The Complete Guide to the Great Pyrenees will answer all your basic questions including: Is a Great Pyrenees the right dog for me? I brought my Great Pyrenees home. What now? What are the best ways to train my GP? What are some common mistakes should I avoid? The Complete Guide to the Great Pyrenees gives you everything you NEED to know about this wonderful breed. Chapters include basics and advanced topics such as: Great Pyrenees History Choosing a Great Pyrenees Preparing Your Home for Your Great Pyrenees Bringing Your Great Pyrenees Home Being a Proud Puppy Parent Housetraining Socializing with People and Animals Great Pyrenees and Your Other Pets Physical and Mental Exercise Training your GP Basic Commands Advanced Commands Dealing with Unwanted Behaviors Traveling with a Great Pyrenees Nutrition Grooming your Great Pyrenees Basic Health Care Let's be honest here.

Owners considering adding a Pyr to their home and lives will profit from the chapter on breed characteristics which catalogs the breed's virtues as well as drawbacks. Considering the great size of the breed, its protective instincts, and its need of space, the awe-inspiring Great Pyrenees doesn't fit easily into every possible living situation. Of course, owners who do believe they can meet the challenges of Pyr ownership will be rewarded with a fearless, loyal, good-natured companion for life.New owners will welcome the well-prepared chapter on finding a reputable breeder and selecting a healthy, sound puppy.

The Pyrenean Mountain Dog, also more commonly known as the Great Pyrenees (especially in North America), is a large breed of dog that is mainly used as a livestock guardian. The Great Pyrenees is an incredibly old breed that has been used for hundreds of years for the purposes of protecting shepherd's livestock from predators. The earliest description of the breed dates back to as early as 1407 but was recorded for the first time by Fray Miguel Agustin, who was the 'prior' of the temple in Catalan, in his book which was published on the 1617. Agustin also states that the Great Pyrenees has a white coat to allow it be clearly visible during both night and day, which allows the shepherd to clearly see when the flock is in danger. The Great Pyrenees has a weather resistant double coat which consists of long, thick and coarse overcoat that lies flat the Great Pyrenees's body. The overcoat also covers the breed's wooly, fine and densely packed undercoat. The Great Pyrenees coat is much more profuse around its neck and shoulders which create the appearance of a mane. The Great Pyrenees also has a great deal of feathering along the back of its legs and thighs. The hair on the dog's face and ears is much shorter and finer than the hairs on the rest of its body. The temperament of dogs is normally affected by the following factors: individual personality, heredity, training and socialization. It is therefore important to make sure that you meet the puppy's mother before purchasing a Great Pyrenees. It is also important to make sure to thoroughly socialize your Great Pyrenees with strangers, children and other animals during its puppyhood. Generally speaking, the Great Pyrenees is a confident, gentle and affection breed. They are known to be incredibly territorial and protective due to their history as a flock guardian. The Great Pyrenees is also known to be a nocturnal breed, again, due to its history as a flock guardian. The breed's nocturnal nature is important to consider when choosing to own a Great Pyrenees. While the Great Pyrenees is known to be aggressive towards animals it deems to be a threat, the breed is typically very calm, docile and gentle around harmless animals and small children due to its natural guardian instinct. It is important to note that as a working breed, the Great Pyrenees has a high amount of energy which needs to be expended. If the Great Pyrenees has a buildup of energy it is likely to develop destructive behaviors due to boredom or hyperactivity. Before purchasing any pet it is important to understand that as a pet owner you are responsible for the care and wellbeing of your pet. It is important to try and learn as much as you can about the animal you are considering to keep as a pet to make sure that your lifestyle, household and financial status are suited to provide your pet with the best possible care. This guide has been designed to provide you with both precise and concise information about a Great Pyrenees's basic needs to help you provide your pet with the best quality care practices. This guide will give an in-depth explanation on training your Great Pyrenees, raising your Great Pyrenees from a puppy, grooming, health care and everything in between! "The Great Pyrenees: A Complete and Comprehensive Owners Guide to: Buying, Owning, Health, Grooming, Training, Obedience, Understanding and Caring for Your Great Pyrenees," by Michael Stonewood is the perfect purchase or gift for a first time Great Pyrenees owner. This guide includes sections on caring for a puppy, breeding, health care, training, the basic cost of owning a Great Pyrenees and much more.
