Growing up we had a Great Pyrenees. He was huge, white, loveable and not very smart. He loved being outside. Hated being inside (which was good since we lived in a small house at the time). Though we had a big backyard and garage where he loved to sleep, it was too small for him. You really need some land and room for them to run. He slobbered a lot and need combing all the time. Because he was an outside dog he was rarely clean. If we gave him a bath he would roll in the dirt as soon as he could. We also had a small mutt that stayed in the house and they were the best of friends, but the small dog was definitely the boss. It was a riot to watch them play. The Pyrenees was very friendly, loved kids and would go with anyone. In fact, one of the neighborhood children took him to school with her for Show-and-Tell. My father couldn't believe it when the school principal called and told him to come get our dog. They are very nice dogs and I have a lot of great memories of ours. Thanks for helping bring them back. Jay
