Dan, thanks for the new pictures. They are beautiful beyond words. Their faces are really maturing in looks and they're getting so big. I loved the picture with the one in your wife's lap - he's just a big old baby. Wish I did have one!

You are correct in assuming that they have not yet finished growing. Some would say they really haven't started yet! I figure they have about another 6-8 inches in height and 50-60 lbs. to go. I am figuring that this should happen over the next year or so. Like the old saying sort of says: "Up and up and up they grow, where they stop, nobody knows!" Dan |

They are soooo beautiful. We had St. Bernards when I was young and I have always planned on having them when I'm older and have my own actual house (hopefully in the country!) I met a Great Pyr when I was in my teens and fell in love. She looked so much like a big, white version of my beloved Golden, and her temperament was just wonderful. Since then I have done a lot of research and found what incredible dogs they are. You are so lucky to have them and they, you.

Thanks to all.
If it were up to me, I would require everyone to have at least one of these amazing dogs. You just can't stay mad at life or anything else for that matter when one of these big furry faces gets placed in your lap! The perfect stress reliever. Dan |

As I am sure everyone is well aware, the Southeast, as well as much of the country, is suffering from absolutely stifling heat. We have been at least 95 degrees or higher for three straight weeks now with many days over 100. You can imagine that dogs bread for the Pyrenees mountains aren't real happy. They are doing amazingly well in all of this heat however. We let them out to play early in the morning before my wife and I go to work and then they spend the rest of the day in the air conditioning. They go out again in the evening. This heat wave is supposed to break this week so hopefully things will get back closer to normal soon. I just keep waiting for those cold winter nights when we can curl up with two big fuzzy body pillows! I know I keep saying it but they really are an absolute joy for us. I will try to get some more up to date pictures posted soon. Thanks for asking about my babies! Dan |

So glad to hear about your "boys," Dan!
Don't know of any other members (at least who have posted) who have TWO such delightful youngsters! LOL...I bet they would be GREAT "warmers" in the winter! Only question I have is...do they snore? Then, on the other hand, they might object if YOU do! Will be such fun comparing their puppy pics with their full grown adult pics!! Keep those updates comin'!

Dan, thanks for the update. I know you and your family love them to pieces.
This heat has been absolutely AWFUL! We have broken more records this summer than ever before and each time "they" say temps will drop to the low 90's, they wind up being the high 90's or 103 degrees. Plus, no rain. I'm glad the boys are doing well in this weather and will look forward to new pictures. I so love this breed. PS - Dan, if you don't mind, I would love to save some of their pictures (particularly the one with your wife holding one of the babies and his little speckled tummy showing) to my files. I know you can't keep them up forever because of space considerations. You know I will understand if you'd rather not.

Yes, Dan...been QUITE awhile since we saw NEW pictures!
Bet they are MUCH BIGGER...and you are STILL losing those wrestling matches! They probably don't even wrestle and the match is done before it's started. Bet they just "sit" on you! Love, Hugs and Scritches Shi & Squeaks |

Gee guys, I was trying to keep in mind this is a pigeon site! O.K., o.k. so I read the posts and felt guilty so I grabbed the camera and my wife and went out to take some pictures. ENJOY!!!
By the way, they are now 10 months old, about 95 pounds and still growing!Attachment 7613 Attachment 7614 Attachment 7615 Last edited by learning; 11th April 2008 at 08:59 PM. |
