    I never even knew about them until about 10 years ago, then knew I wanted one immediately after looking them up.

    Then a year later my sister, working at an animal rescue shelter, let me know that one came in after being abandoned due to running off and being picked up by animal control multiple times, and then I immediately got on the list to adopt.

    Apologies for the photo bombardment but definitely one of the best of the dog breeds out there.

    Need to have space though and be more of a partner than a master, to tolerate stubbornness and barks.



  • Personally I don’t even subscribe to any. I just browse all and then filter out any community that pops up which I don’t think I’ll ever be interested in.

    I started to subscribe to a few but when browsing subscribed only I felt like I was potentially missing so much, because maybe I subscribed to the wrong “aww” instance but I also didn’t want to go through and find the 3-4 different versions to subscribe to.

    This way I see everything, except the stuff that I definitely don’t want to see (like most of the porn instances, non-english instances, etc.)




  • Yep, as far as I’m aware. This picture was from a few years ago after I picked him up from a shelter. Don’t know the lineage exactly, but he is on the small side for a Pyrenees and could be a mix or maybe a Maremma or something. I call him a Pyrenees though.

    His last family gave him up after the recovery fees got too high with animal control since he kept running off constantly which sounds pretty Great Pyrenees to me too lol.
