Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (medium coat). COURTESY POST – NOT A GPRRUM DOG Great Pyrenees Rescue Resources of Utah & Montana is sharing this post as a courtesy. Bear is not in our rescue, but we want to help his family find him a safe, loving new home. If you’re interested, please contact the owner directly using this information: Spencer Empey <spencer.empeygmail> Poor 3 year old Pyrenees boy Bear startled the maintenance guy who came for an unscheduled inspection on the home his owner was renting. Bear, being a great guard dog, barked and scared off the maintenance tech since he was a stranger entering his home while his human was not around. This resulted in a call from the landlord saying that because of the size of Bear and his "threatening demeanor" that his owner either needed to re-home him or forfeit the lease. Sadly the owner was recently divorced with shared custody of children making moving not an option. Bear is such a good boy. He is stubborn, but so very loving and playful. He gets along so well with kids and other dogs including the yellow lab mix he lives with. Unfortunately his nature of being protective of his home and his human has made it that he cannot continue staying with his owner.

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.
