OUR JOURNEY

Learning life with a Pyr

We did not grow up with Great Pyrenees, but we fell in love with their gentle nature, strong instincts, and steady presence. Our family’s journey with this magnificient breed has been full of lessons­­– the good, the challenging and the unexpected.

Here we share what we have learned so far, in hopes of helping other families who are considering, welcoming, or already living with a Great Pyrenees.
