Description
Dog Breed: Border Collie / Great Pyrenees / Mixed (medium coat). Lyra is a sweet, affectionate lady who adores being close to her people. If youâre sitting, sheâs probably leaning in for pets; if youâre standing, sheâs waiting for you to notice her soft gaze. Sheâs a smart girl who already knows her basic cues and can even offer a charming shake with both paws. Lyra may enjoy having another friendly dog in the home, but what she wants most is a family who will love her as much as she loves them.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Pyrenees Border Collie, a compelling hybrid of the intelligent Border Collie and the majestic Great Pyrenees, emerges as a fascinating and capable companion. Originating from combining these two distinct working breeds, its purpose is often to blend the herding prowess of the Border Collie with the guarding instincts of the Great Pyrenees. Physically, expect a medium-to-large dog, typically exhibiting a dense, weather-resistant coat, often in shades of black, white, merle, or tricolor, with a build that suggests both agility and strength. Temperamentally, they are generally loyal, intelligent, and protective, making them excellent family guardians. However, their intelligence also means they require consistent training and plenty of mental and physical stimulation to prevent boredom. While their protective nature can be wonderful for families, early socialization is crucial. Due to their size and need for exercise, they are not typically suited for apartment living and thrive in homes with ample outdoor space. Health-wise, they can be predisposed to conditions affecting their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and eye conditions, so responsible breeding practices are vital.
