Great Pyrenees
Large white dog
A Great Pyrenees is a large white dog bred to guard livestock in mountainous regions.
The breed is known for its thick double coat, calm temperament, and protective instincts: Our Great Pyrenees patrols the fence line at night.
They can be stubborn and independent, traits developed from working alone with sheep.
Also called Pyrenean Mountain Dog, especially in Britain.
