Great Pyrenees Discussions / Re: Getting Our Pyrenees Puppy on Friday

Thanks for your warm welcome, Alex. I feel I already know you in a way because I have been reading the discussion threads for a while. I am going to have to figure out how to post pictures. I am a little computer illiterate. My husband is the computer GEEK in the family, so I may have to enlist his help. To give you an idea of what he looks like though, he has fairly dark badger markings around his eyes and a dark spot on his rear end. He looks like Zorro, but the markings are fading every day.
As for the crate, I just finished cleaning a wire one that I got from a friend who has Newfies. It's HUGE. I never used an extra large crate with my Pyr who died last summer. She fit in the large one. However, our breeder suggested we get the largest one we could find. I will be using a medium sized on for a little while and then moving up as Samson gets bigger. I loved having a crate when I raised my first puppy, Cascade. It made everything easier. However, I still remember how time consuming watching a puppy could be. Luckily, I have two children (15 and 12) to help supervise and exercise the puppy this time.
Anyway, I love the picture of your beautiful Naja. Do you prounounce the j in it as a j or a y? I've been wondering.
