I'm proudly owned by the cutest puppy... I have no idea what breed she is. I thought she was a mix of who knows what. I just stumbled upon a picture of a great pyrenees that looks just like my pup!! I was shocked!! I'm coming to know that great pyrenees are very large dogs, and my dog isn't that large, but then again, she's just about 8 months old. The last time i weighed her she was 45 lbs. I don't think she has gained weight or size since then, I'll have to check...
So, I'm wondering what's the normal growth rate of a dog of this breed? I'm trying to figure out if she could be a great pyrenees, or maybe she's mixed with a maremma shepherd (she looks a lot like those too, but she has orangey markings on her face and ears, and some faint spots on her body, and the maremma seem to be all white only). I first thought she could be a maremma, the description of size seems to fit her better, but as i mentioned, the maremma don't seem to have those types of markings or colors on face and ears.
Any input greatly appreciated!
I'll add a picture of my dog later, see if you guys can comment...
