Pyrenean Shepherd

        The Pyrenean Shepherd is a small, lively dog. The coat is long, flat against the Pyrenean Shepherd’s body. It is usually colored fawn to tan to copper, and can have a mixture of hairs that range in color from black to grey, or charcoal to pearl gray, to silver. There can also be a little white. The males should, in the Smooth-Faced strain, be 15.5-21 inches tall, and in the Rough-Faced strain, be 15.5-18.5 inches. The females in the Smooth-Faced strain, be 15.5-20.5 inches, and in the Rough-Faced strain, be 15-18 inches tall. The Pyrenean Shepherd can get very attached to his master, usually through herding work. He is devoted to his job, distrustful of strangers while friendly to members of his immediate family.
