The Great Pyrenees is an exceptionally old breed, developed hundreds of years ago in the Pyrenees mountains between France and Spain. Developed by shepherds to live among and defend the flock from large, vicious predators, they had to be powerful—but they also had to be gentle enough to be trusted with newborn lambs. This breed is exceptionally large, often greater than a hundred pounds, but due to their usually gentle, affectionate demeanor towards human children, the dogs make excellent family pets as well.

An effective flock guardian has to be hardworking, loyal, and able to think independently. That ability to think independently can sometimes lead this canine to be stubborn when it comes to training, but make no mistake, with the proper attitude and training tools, you can teach these intelligent animals both basic and advanced commands. This book will ensure that you achieve greater insight into the Great Pyrenees breed and help you determine if this majestic canine is right for you and your home.
