hi, i have a newfie, and last weekend i took him to visit my uncles farm, he recently got a great pyrenees, hes now 10 months old and SO MUCH BIGGER than my newfie, hes atleast 60lbs larger if not more than my newf, i dont know much about these amazing dogs but id like to share david with you guys

my uncle owns 87 acres of land and david watches over there sheep and goats, hes very calm for his age (10 months) my newf is 7 months and drags me every where and runs and jumps but david is jus so calm and so gentle i cant believe how mature he acts for his age


any way

here is is

A Pyr pet owner once told me that the Pyr is America's best kept secret- truly a wonderful breed to live with.  Especially with people being so busy- no having to play frisbee twice a day or 2 mile walks just to burn off some energy they are quite content to just quietly lay in the same room you are in- even as puppies.  Many people think they need a lot of land and exercise- NOPE they are however quite good at snoozing
