Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). Meet Bentley! Bentley is a 4-month-old stunningly beautiful example of a Great Pyrenees. His hair is soft and fluffy with a spiky “helmet head”. He was found on the side of a highway, muddy and scared. It was 3 days before he would stand all the way up, he cowered on the ground and cried around people. He has grown to trust and loves to play with kids and other dogs. He has good manners in the house but still needs supervision around shoes or other delicious items. Bentley is very smart and has already learned to sit and use a dog door. If you are looking for a big boy to be your companion, Bentley is waiting for you!

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.
