In this video, we are counting down the top 10 facts about Pyrenean Shepherd that you might not know.
A Quick Overview:
Group: Herding Dogs
Weight: 25 to 30 pounds
Height: 15 to 21 inches tall at the shoulder
Life Expectancy: 15 to 17 years
Enthusiastic, mischievous, and whip-smart, the Pyrenean Shepherd is an indefatigable herder descended from ancient sheepdogs of the Pyrenees mountains. Tough and sinewy Pyr Sheps come in “rough-faced” and “smooth-faced” coat varieties.
These tough, lean, and lively herders, famous for their vigorous and free-flowing movement, come in two coat varieties: rough-faced and smooth-faced. Roughs have profuse, “windswept” hair above the muzzle and a generally harsh coat; smooths have short facial hair, a finer-textured coat, and a slightly longer, pointier muzzle. Both varieties of this sinewy, rectangular breed come in many colors and patterns. Pyr Sheps see the world through dark almond-shaped eyes conveying an alert and cunning expression.
It’s important to remember that the Pyr Shep is a herding breed. That means he’s always on guard, always suspicious of strangers or anything different. If you like a dog who is friendly toward everyone he meets and takes a change in stride, the Pyr Shep is probably not for you. He tends to be a one-person or one-family dog. If he has been very well socialized, he can learn to greet other people with a semblance of friendliness, but he’s never going to be buddy-buddy with them. And he will always notice something new in his environment and bark to tell you of his disapproval.

I have a rescue Pyrenean sheepdog. She is the sweetest athlete I know with all dogs I met. She is tenacious, but she is a very endearing personality. As a past dog a past dog walker, I find my dog a very intuitive breed.(she’s also a long haired)

How active, intelligent, and mischievous is your Pyr Shep? Are they always on guard and always suspicious of strangers or anything different? Let us know in the comments!

I have pyr sheps that are of all things; puppy mill victims... and they have heart murmurs, epilepsy, and one has asthma; no doubt from being trapped in a filthy, moldy cage and only let out at night when someone bothered to show up and feed, water and let him out.... But, that doesn't stop them from being the most adorable, agile, rock-climbing, scamperlicious dogs around! I walk my dogs 3 miles 6 days a week because we are stuck in a city where none of us belong; and not on our own land... these are NOT city dogs! If you don't have lots of space and work for them to do; they will not fare well... My dogs don't play fetch... but they love to play keep-away and they love to run the entire ball fields twice...They are natural herders; and will herd YOU.... You really need to be energetic and agile and full of adventure; because they will want to literally do everything you do; even the laundry... because my dogs are puppy mill dogs; they are more prone to strangers... but that is not the norm; Puppy mill dogs have a particular set of issues that are not found in other rescue dogs; so with these dogs; even more patience and understanding is needed; and I have no problem giving them all they need... This breed has been particularily protected by those who love and breed and work with Pyr sheps; but now that the wrong persons have taken interest in them; they are being exploited... Please don't buy one of these dogs unless you know what you are getting and who the breeder is... In Europe; they are very strict with the standards for Pyr sheps, for a good reason... I wish we weren't so greedy here in America....

I'm SO grateful that you saved your pups. I'm here after falling for them at the National Dog Show. You sound like the most committed kind of animal lover. Hope you find the perfect place for ALL of you. ❤ Fwiw, I got a bunch of ill puppy mill Shih Tzus years back. Ditto on how many medical issues, but their courage and personality were next level. Blessings to your pack. ❤

Can u please do a malshi (Maltese and shitzu) video

[@tashialund332]

Why would any one do a video on a crossbred? There is no consistent size, characteristics, or structure with them.
