12 Facts Every Great Pyrenees Owner Should Know

#7 Otherwise, the Pyrenean Mountain Dog should be used to regular brushing even as a puppy when it comes to you in its new home.

The places behind the ears would be important, as the so-called "second ears" tend to form quickly and easily - small or larger balls of fur that can usually only be cut with scissors (please use scissors with rounded edges - on the internet or pet shops - because of the risk of injury ) to remove. You should also pay more attention to fur care on the back of the bottom ("the pants") - it tends to get matted.

#8 The easiest way is to teach your puppy from an early age that his human can and must touch him anywhere.

This always works best when your Pyrenean Mountain Dog puppy is relaxed and you teach it lovingly from an early age.

#9 A Pyrenean mountain dog has what are known as wolf claws or dewclaws on its hind legs.

These are standard and may only be removed in the event of injury. In some cases, these wolf or dewclaws can also be found on the front paws - they should be treated in exactly the same way as those on the hind legs, but these are not required by the standard. These claws do not usually wear off and must be trimmed from time to time. Anyone who does not dare should have them shortened by a veterinarian, as they are very well supplied with blood and it is not always easy to see where to cut. Otherwise, there are very good claw scissors in specialist shops that are suitable for cutting the claws of Pyrenean mountain dogs.
