Great Pyrenees

A word about training

AKA the Pyrenees Mountain Dog

A very ancient breed hailing from the Pyrenees Mountains in the north of Spain, our ancestors bred these dogs to guard their flocks of sheep and goats from bears, wolves, coyotes, and other predators. Don't just take our word, check out the link above for a very good write-up.

Are they just being stubborn?

Due to their independent nature, a Great Pyr may display as being stubborn and slow to learn. They aren't really built to take direction they don't want to do, rather, they were meant to spend their lives in a field guarding sheep and goats and make their own decisions. This doesn't mean they can't be trained, just that they will take longer and need to be trained with great patience on the part of the trainer. A firm, but gentle method is best as these dogs will dig their heels in when they decide they don't want to do what you tell them to. As the owner, you have to establish your position as dominant without destroying their loyalty to you in order to get them to respect your commands.
