[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 858076, member: 6897"] We've used the Pyrenees for years and love them. But like you said you'll have to keep them up while using your BC etc. They will allow other dogs around that they are familar with but WILL be the dominant dog and WILL occasionally remind the others that they are dominant. they do tend to be a little "possessive" and will even consider "you" as part of the herd and not let the others get close. I prefer females to the males tho. The guarding is a natural thing and ours have always slept and lived out with the cows with the occasional visit to the house to eat....get along great with children too. Watching one chase down a coyote and kill it is better entertainment than the horse races. Come to think of it they could probably outrun a horse for a while anyway. We shear ours in the late spring because of the heat and they look like greyhounds. [/QUOTE]
