    My boys name was Shep because he was the shepherd to our sheep. Such a great boy he was. Been gone around 20 years now, but I still miss him. Greetings from Melbourne, Australia

    We named our Pry Bridgette. She was a pet therapy dog and lived until she was 13. She was followed up by a Golden Pyr we named Brutus. Also a pet therapy dog. Lived until 9. Both super dogs. Because of our age my husband and I decided to downsize. Now have a 2 year old Norwegian Elk hound named Eli. He is a fun dog but my first love remains with the Pyr. All of you who are getting puppies, I am so jealous. Enjoy your fluff balls. They are the greatest.

    We rescued our girl. She is Pyr mix with golden, still mostly white fluff with a couple small caramel spots. She had been through a lot as a pup we were told and was already named Chloe by someone else so we kept that name. She is a Chloe but my son nicknamed her Fuzzy because, well, their fur is everywhere and makes the whole house fuzzy! LOL! Best dog ever!

    Just got our 2 Great Pyrenees 2 days ago. Best dogs ever. They are only 6 weeks old. One is 18 pds, the other is 16 and they are full brothers. The 16 pounder is named Snowball and the 18 pounder is named Polar Bear. We call them Snow and Bear for short. They are going to be guardian dogs for our sheep.
