I have two guardian dogs that i need to train. I’m not afraid of the work and have gone through training with house dogs, but feel a bit intimidated about field dogs. My son has a GP that wants to Rome. I have hot fence everywhere and an alpha vs his 8 mo old pup who thinks she knows something….can we rescue her to my pack? Also. How can I get more acquainted with my two so that I can groom them better?
It's a myth that Great Pyrenees are stubborn. Live stock guardian dogs take up to three years to reach maturity. So they are like big puppies for years.
I've had several and currently have a 10 month old neutered male who is stubborn as the day is long. He needs consistency daily. This breed needs consistent training and obedience daily! He keeps me on my toes and you absolutely have to show who is alpha with this breed. These dogs were bred to be independent and they are highly intelligent. My absolute favorite breed on this planet.
goodness she’s a great girl!

How many times had she been there for training before this video?

If true I still have one more LONG year!
Would you recommend a slip lead for training a Great Pyrenees?
I don't really think you are "teaching" this dog anything.....they will naturally mellow with age.
These dogs aren’t your normal dogs..they will train you in the end. They just want to be livestock guardians.
