Here is info on the Great Pyrenees.
And here is info on the Maremma.
Melinda had gotten a dog that was the same mix when she came back from Germany, but had gotten it as an adult, and there were some behavioral issues that would not be curbed, so she had to give it up. When we found out about these puppies that became available we were thrilled, and got one for her. Right now we have him because we have three other dogs that are teaching him "manners" and how to be a cuddly fierce protector dog for Melinda when she gets her own place after college.
He's about two-and-a-half months old, so that makes him about one-and-a-half in people years. So he's testing the boundaries: biting the electrical cords, stealing shoes from the closet, touching things while looking you straight in the eye...
Here are some pictures to enjoy:
His favorite place is under something...
With Carolyn--don't know how long she'll be able to pick him up...they get big!
Finally Melinda gets to meet her puppy when she came up from Tampa.
Melinda named him: Klondike the Polar Bear (with a Coke!)
Chillin' with big brother Kaiser. He should get about the same size.
Maybe we should have named him Velcro...
