Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). All of our dogs are beautiful but some are definitely head turners, Max is one of those! Big and majestic, gentle and goofy! That's Maximus! Max has only been with us for a couple of weeks but he's shown what a chill boy he is already. He's good with other dogs, and cats and loves all people. We'll suggest older kiddos just due to his size. Max is house trained, good when left alone in the house and walks well on a leash. Max was just neutered and brought UTD and is ready for his forever family. He is being fostered in ID.

Overview:
The Great Pyrenees is a majestic and ancient breed, originating in the Pyrenean mountains between France and Spain, where they served as formidable livestock guardians. Physically, they are large, powerful dogs, easily recognized by their thick, double coat, typically white (though sometimes marked with badger, grey, or tan), and a distinctive "double dewclaw" on their hind legs. Despite their imposing size, their temperament is generally calm, gentle, and remarkably patient, making them excellent companions. They possess a natural protectiveness, which translates to a watchful eye over their families and property. While loving and tolerant with children, their size and barking tendencies make them less suited for small apartment living; a home with a yard is ideal. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, patellar luxation, and certain eye conditions, emphasizing the importance of responsible breeding. Their independent nature also means they require consistent, positive reinforcement training.
