Prince is a 3-year-old Great Pyrenees, weighing in at a very stout and impressive 130 pounds of pure, unfiltered Pyr. He's a classic in every sense, keenly aware of his surroundings and takes his self-appointed role as neighborhood security very seriously. In the absence of actual sheep, Prince feels it's his duty to alert his people to the Amazon driver, a squirrel, or the neighbor walking their dog. This is important work, and he'd like you to appreciate it!
Prince is wonderful with his people and is a silly, fun dog at heart. He's also respectful of strangers. He loves to play, but like many large working breeds, his athletic endeavors come in brief, dramatic bursts. Expect thirty-second sprints followed by a full-body collapse on the floor, tongue out.
Ideal Home
Prince needs adopters who genuinely understand and appreciate the Great Pyrenees breed and all of its quirks. He is perfectly housebroken and supremely well-mannered in the home, making him a joy to live with for the right people. Prince requires a securely fenced yard and is completely untrustworthy off-leash. Teen-aged kids and up would be best for this big guy.
Ongoing Health
Prince is selectively deaf, hearing only what aligns with his personal priorities.
Training & Support
Prince is not an obedience champion and he's not pretending to be. He is independent, thoughtful, and very comfortable making his own decisions. He sheds, and he barks when he sees things – he does exactly the things Great Pyrenees are famous for doing. If you tell him he has been bad, he will sulk and take it personally.
