Yeah, there's something about them. Even though they go out of their way to ignore us sometime, they're irresistable and I've never had a dog that was so different or one so stubburn. ;)

Hi, my dog is 1/2 great pyrenees and 1/2 australian shepherd and I wanted to get him a playmate so he won't feel so lonely when I'm at work. Any suggestions on breeds that would be big enough to romp around with him and would not be aggressive?  :)

Yeah, I wasn't going to take him because I thought I could control him but ;D as all of you know, big dogs get a little attitude when they hit their teenager years. I'm sure little dogs too, but the big ones are the pushers of the bunch. Thanks for all your advice, if you have any more info keep writing.

You think he is too big? He's a jumbo butt.... It would be horrible if he jumped on them :o

Hi, my dog's about 1 year old and when he was a puppy I socialized him as much as I could but I stopped doing it after he was about 8 months old because he was so big and he seemed to be doing fine with the socializing but today he jumped out of his collar to get away from my neighbor.  :-\ I was going to take him to obedience training but I put it off like an idiot and now he's about 100 pounds now. So I'm a little afraid to take him to obedience training because he's so gigantic. And you know how pyrenees are. They may be 100 pounds but they look like they weigh 150.

I tried it. He follows me when I have food but I'm worried about him. He has never hurt me and I doubt he would but I'm worried if someone grabbed his collar he'd act like he was going to bite them. Has anyone had this kind of problem with a pyr?

I correct him, I hope I'm not hurting him but he is a big dog so I try to pull him just enough so that he'll know where I want him to go. He only does it when I am going to take hime outside. He has this sixth sense when he knows what I want him to do but listening to me is a different story. I think it's because he's half great pyrenees. They tend to do what they want not what the owner wants.
 
Someone told me that I should show him that I'm the boss and to grab his nose or hit it. I will not do that. I just want him to let me take him outside without a fight.

He's half great pyrenese and half australian shepherd. I have tried the leash but he lays on the ground. I must have done something wrong. :'(

My dog is a 1 year old and I've had him since he was a puppy. He has never had a neck injury or anything related to that. I had someone else pull him outside he did it for a second and relized it wasn't working so he stopped so I guess if I act like it dosen't bother me he'll stop. But he's huge so I will just have to try.

My dog's name is Bear and everytime I try to pull him by his collar to take him outside he starts growling at me and leaning his head back like he's going to bite me. He also does it when I try to get him off the couch. He's never hurt me but I want it to stop. How do I get him to stop? ???
