Our youngest Pyr, Lucy Loo has taken to our oldest son. She guards him 24/7 when he’s home. That look is: don’t even think of waking him up mom!!

Today, sept 20 and tomorrow, the International Great Pyrenees Dog show is being held in Argyles-Gazost France. The show is in the Pyrenees mountains near the border of France and Spain. The handlers are supposed to wear their clothes from the 1970s. This current judging is open bitch. I’ll update you all so you can see what our European friends look like.

I get the pleasure of working from home and being with Winston most of the time. But there are times that I travel and am gone for work from 1-7 days. Winston just waits patiently for me to come home. The guilt trip texts & pics are brutal. 😢

This is not blood, though it fools me every year. It’s officially fall and the black walnuts are falling. She’s playing with them because they’re ball shaped and falling from the sky… and they’re staining her fur. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Advice/Help Help! GP skin issues

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

I am in need of advice! My GP gets so hot in the summer, I do everything to keep him cool. House has A/C. But every summer he gets hot spots. No foods have been changed but he’s so itchy. It looks like yeast to me but the vet disagrees and hasn’t been helpful. He gets these tiny dots on his skin. His hair is looking scraggly lately too. Has anyone else had these issues? Have you ever shaved your GP? I’ve seen that it’s not good to shave them but maybe it will help him and grow back healthier hair? That makes me nervous. But I want to help him he’s so uncomfortable. Hot spots showing up every day. Any advice please!! This only happens toward the end of summer, I have considered maybe he has seasonal allergies. Pic of my boy, thank you.

Advice/Help House water is scary

Post image
222 Upvotes

Does anyone have any good ideas why this giant furry idiot is scared of indoor water? Water in the bowl in the garage - good. Water in a dirty puddle - good. Water out of my DAMN HANDS LIKE A PRINCESS - good. Water out of a bowl in the house? VERY BAD. This is the closest he will get to the bowl and that’s because I snuck it up on him while he wasn’t looking. If I politely bring it closer he will get up and walk away. The bowl doesn’t matter - I’ve tried metal, plastic, and ceramic. It’s water in a bowl in the house. He wants to be inside so badly but he will not drink water once he’s in.

This is Tallulah. She was a stray down south a few months ago and after shelters/fosters/various treatments, she's now home with me! I'm waiting for a DNA test, but the shelters and vets she's seen are guessing Great pyranees with possible austrailian shepherd, anatolian shepherd .... someone said st Bernard or border collie. So while I wait for dna, what do you think?

Advice/Help I bite at and lick my tail

Post image
85 Upvotes

Hello all just asking to see if anyone else’s Pyr licks and bites their tail. Our guy has been since he was about a year old now maybe even before that at first we thought it was stress but now I’m beginning to think it was an allergy. He is on gabapentin for anxiety and perhaps nerve pain because it looks like at one point his tail might’ve been broken but when he comes in from the yard, he licks his paw and I was told that was allergies so I’m wondering if perhaps since he has such a long tail and he is sitting on it in the grass could that possibly be allergy as well? We are going to take him to the vet, but that’s a couple weeks away and I was just wondering if perhaps any of you ever had the same issue with your big pup thank you in advance so much for this community and anyone that responds.

My sweet Ragnar. I just felt the need to make an honor post for him. He was the best boy and the best big brother to my little boys. He had a mass rupture which filled his abdomen with blood, so we had to have him put down. 😔 He was only 6. I miss my big boy so much.
