To keep a Great Pyrenees dog healthy and active the Great Pyrenees needs at least 20 to 30 minutes of exercise per day which can consist of running, walking or just out playing.

You should aim to walk your Great Pyrenees dog at least 10 minutes per day and allow the dog to get some playtime.

The best type of brush for a Great Pyrenees is a brush with a curved-bristle metal slicker followed by a wide-toothed stainless steel comb or grooming rake.

The FURminator Firm Slicker brush and the FURminator Long Hair Dog Deshedding tool which you can get on Chewy or most pet stores.

A Great Pyrenees dog is a good family dog.

Although the Great Pyrenees dog is a large breed of dog and they need lots of space to roam around and exercise the Great Pyrenees dog is a great family dog and loves to play as long as it's treated properly and treated with love the Great Pyrenees dog will treat you back with love and affection.

No it's not considered OK to shave a Great Pyrenees because the Great Pyrenees can sunburn easily without it's fur and also the Great Pyrenees dog needs it's fur and coat to control and regulate it's body temperature.

You can cut some of the fur off the Great Pyrenees but never shave the Great Pyrenees dogs fur or coat completely.

Great Pyrenees dogs can be dangerous if they are mistreated or they need to be dangerous to be protective.

However most Great Pyrenees dogs are very loving and gentle dogs that make good family pets.

Other smaller dogs would be better in apartments than a large dog like a Great Pyrenees or a Great Dane.

Great Pyrenees dogs are not any more difficult to train than other dog breeds.

If you're good at training dogs or you hire someone who is a good professional dog trainer then they can easily train the Great Pyrenees Dog.

If you're not sure on how to properly train a dog it's best to hire a professional dog trainer because they would know what they are doing and have the experience to train the dog properly.

I found that my Great Pyrenees trained much easier than any other dogs I've had.

A Great Pyrenees Dog can get to as high as 32 inches in height and I've seen a few Great Pyrenees Dogs get to as high as 3 feet tall.

The Great Pyrenees is a strong and large dog that needs a lot of space to roam around and be happy and you need a good tall fence to keep the Great Pyrenees dog in otherwise they can easily jump the fence.

Great Pyrenees can be a house dog but the Great Pyrenees dog cannot stay in the house all the time or most of the time.

The Great Pyrenees dog needs to be outside a lot of the time for exercise, fresh air and to keep them happy and healthy.

It's okay to keep your Great Pyrenees dog in the house when needed but they should also be allowed outside some of the time.

The Great Pyrenees dog breed does get cold just like other dogs and humans.

If it's too cold outside for you then it's too cold outside for your Great Pyrenees or other dog breed.

Always make sure you bring your Great Pyrenees or other dog inside the house with you when it's too hot or too cold because dogs can freeze to death and suffer heat stroke just like humans can.

The dogs fur helps to keep them somewhat warm but not completely warm.

The Great Pyrenees dog is full grown when the Great Pyrenees dog is 2 years old.

Once the Great Pyrenees dog is 2 years old they are full grown and will usually not grow any more as they are now an adult dog.

A Great Pyrenees dog is pretty Loyal to their owner and family as long as you treat the Great Pyrenees dog breed with love and respect and care for them properly they will be loyal to you and your family and will show their love back to you.

A Great Pyrenees dog can jump as high as 5 ft to 6 ft.

My own Great Pyrenees Jumped a 6 foot tall fence so I had to increase the height of the fence to 8 feet to keep him from jumping the fence.

Also dogs including Great Pyrenees dogs can dig out from underneath fences so I buried fence wire a few feet below the ground too.

A Great Pyrenees dog can live outside as long as the weather is not too hot or too cold.

If the weather is too hot or too cold then the Great Pyrenees dog should be inside the house out of the cold or hot weather.

In the heat the Great Pyrenees dog or any other dog can suffer heat stroke and get severely ill or even die of heat stroke.

In the cold weather the Great Pyrenees dog or any other dog breed could freeze to death.

If it's too hot outside for you or too cold outside for you then it's the same for the dog whether it's a Great Pyrenees or any other dog breed.
