Overview: | Labrenees or Pyrador is the mix of one large-sized dog; the Great Pyrenees and one medium-sized dog; Labrador Retriever. As a hybrid, it has better quality than its parent breeds as the traits and characteristics are mixed. These are very large dogs that are typically more cooperative and trainable than the Great Pyrenees, but more discriminating and naturally protective than the Labrador Retriever. |

Character: | As a hybrid, it has better quality than its parent breeds as the traits and characteristics are mixed. These are very large dogs that are typically more cooperative and trainable than the Great Pyrenees, but more discriminating and naturally protective than the Labrador Retriever. |
Temperament: | The Labrenees is typically a friendly canine, although they may tend to be a little more aloof and suspicious towards strangers than the parent breed of the Labrador, so positive socialization is of particular importance to the outgoing nature for this mix. This hybrid dog breed is usually positively disposed toward children, although they are quite large and can sometimes inherit the enthusiasm of the Labrador Retriever breed, so all interactions with smaller children should be closely supervised, particularly when the canine is in their awkward adolescent stage. They should get along quite well with the members of their family, both human and otherwise, but the Great Pyrenees may influence some dogs to exhibit territorial behaviors towards outsiders. While these dogs are generally quite intelligent, the trainability of this crossbreed can be variable; those that favor the Labrador Retriever are very eager to please and quick to learn, however, some may inherit the more independent nature and strong will of the Great Pyrenees, and will be more challenging to train. |
Care: | The grooming requirements for a Labrenees are relatively uncomplicated and don’t require a large time commitment. Although these dogs will need baths a couple of times a year, and when they get into anything dirty or smelly, they shouldn’t be bathed too often to prevent a loss of natural oils to the coat and irritation to the skin. Brushing sessions should take place at least weekly, although a few times a week is best to ensure that all of the dead hair is removed and the coat stays shiny and healthy. It is also important to be sure that the ears are kept clean and dry and are checked for infections or irritation on a regular basis. |
Training: | While Labrenees are generally quite intelligent, the trainability of this crossbreed can be variable; those that favor the Labrador Retriever are very eager to please and quick to learn, however, some may inherit the more independent nature and strong will of the Great Pyrenees, and will be more challenging to train. |
Activity: | While the Labrador Retriever is an extremely athletic and very active dog, the more moderate pace of the Great Pyrenees helps to lessen the daily exercise requirement somewhat for this hybrid dog breed. The Labrenees is usually quite content with about an hour of vigorous activity a day, although this is most effective when broken down into a few smaller chunks throughout the day. This hybrid dog breed is also likely to enjoy swimming and water sports, which can help to strengthen the canine’s cardiovascular system and muscles without causing the stress to the bones and joints that most activities do and may reduce the dog's chances of developing hip and elbow dysplasia in the long term. |
Country of Origin: | USA |
Health Issue: | Labrenees are generally healthy dogs, but as with most large breeds, watch out for elbow and hip dysplasia. |
