LOL, wait till next spring for the annual fur blowout. Since he was a puppy this year, next year will especially fun. We do an initial 'pull' as ours starts to shed. Just start picking the loose stuff out whenever we stop with ours using our fingers. For two weeks the whole yard looks like there is snow on the ground. Then, the real action starts getting all that loose undercoat out. One of ours, he passed away a few years back, would run up under the roof line. He could actually hear the snow on the roof starting to slide off. Scared me to death the first time I saw it. He'd position himself under the area about to slide and just enjoy all that snow coming down on top of him. Then he would dig his way out of the 'pile' of snow. He was a great dog. I remember being out in -20 degree, weather in the middle of the night, chasing him down to try and get him into the house. What a nightmare. He hated coming inside. We finally built a shelter (he wouldn't use a dog house) and in winter surrounded it with straw bales to insulate it. He tangled with a cougar when he was about 10 years old. The cougar took off but, I held him while he died. Very tough that loss. The one I have now is the same way. Won't come in the house in the winter, come summer though, he runs in and spends his day time in the basement where it's cool. They bark though, at low flying satellites and high flying butterflies. It's a territorial warning bark that goes on all night long. Hardy breed. Kinda like the 'cats' of the dog world. Easy going and laid back. It is always comforting to know wherever I am around the place, he just comes up and lays nearby. I've had at least one Pyr around for the last 25 years and can't imagine being without one :)
