Golden Pyrenees
Golden Retriever /
Great Pyrenees Hybrid
The Golden Pyrenees is not a
purebred dog. It is a cross between the Golden
Retriever
and the Great Pyrenees. The best way to determine the
temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you
can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in either breed.
This hybrid cross is recognized by the American Canine Hybrid Club.
Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50%
purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed
multi-generation crosses.
Fluffy, the Golden Pyrenees (Golden Retriever / Great
Pyrenees hybrid) "She is 16 months old and weighs 85 pounds in this picture.
She is, obviously, pretty big--and is a lap dog. Her temperament is absolutely
even. She adores children and watches them intently to make sure everything is
on the up and up. A crying baby has her at attention and nosing around to see
what she can do to help! She is so people-oriented that she will leave a treat
behind if there is a chance that someone near her will shower love upon her."
"Fluffy is very compliant, too. The vet techs said that she should be the
poster-dog for "fun" spayings, as Fluffy was so happy before and after the
procedure. She likes to go to the vet because there are people there who are all
about her! You can wobble her dewlaps, trim her toenails, give her a bath--all
without complaint. The look in her eyes tells you she is indulging you, but
loves you, so it's all good."
"She does some classic Pyr things--like "playing deaf." If she has thoughts on
what she'd like to do, and your thoughts are different, well...you might as well
be talking to the wall. *Unless* you make it sound fun--like a people-thing. She
also barks at night if the windows are open. We live in a suburban area and she
will make you aware of every noise she hears. She'd also dig for China--given
the opportunity. We're talking craters, not holes."

Fluffy, the Golden Pyrenees (Golden Retriever / Great
Pyrenees hybrid) "For exercise, we walk about a mile a day and she is
perfectly content. She's more of a couch potato than an Energizer Bunny. She's
always ready to go--but would really like it best if "going" included
intermittent naps."
Fluffy, the Golden Pyrenees (Golden Retriever / Great
Pyrenees hybrid) "Her coat is long and plentiful. I brushed her every day
during the spring and fall--but now it seems she's fine with a thorough
once-a-week brushing. Her tail and "britches" are the most snarl-prone. The rest
of her coat just needs clearing of the downy-soft under coat. Point of interest:
She does have double dewclaws. Basically, the phrase that best describes her is
"joie de vivre" because everything, everything is her "favorite ever!"

Retriever mix)

"This is my dog, Luke, at 6 years old.
He is a
Golden Pyrenees who we found at our local shelter in NC. He is so sweet and
is famous in our neighborhood as everyone loves him. When I found him, he was 40
pounds at 1.5 years old. He had been a stray for those 1.5 years and fed off
eating grubs mainly. When we brought him inside, he did not know what to do with
stairs so I had to carry him up and down the stairs to teach him. Let's say he
has blossomed since we brought him home, and he now weighs 110 pounds. He is the
best dog we've ever had and would highly recommend his hybrid. Does not have a
mean bone in his body."
