Hey Nicki,
Just thought I would let you know my parents own a Huskey/Austrailian Shepherd mix who is 70 pounds and a Great Pyrenees who is 95 pounds. They are both great with my little yorkies Murphy and Mia and also have a yorkie sister of my moms that they live with.
Bailey is the GP and she is SOOOOOO ridiculously sweet and playful with my little Mia who is only 3 pounds. I am always over my moms with Murphy and Mia and they are like two peas in a pod. I am at work now so this is the only picture I have of the two dogs but I could show you many pictures of the GP and my Mia cuddled up together. The GP are truly GREAT dogs but do require some training on your part. As for a Guard dogs though...nothing is more powerful or makes a statement than a GP staring you in the face if you are not welcome. She has made it quite clear to many people at my mom and dads house that they are not welcome unless my parents let the people come in the door.
Good luck with your search. Here is a picture of them both so you can see...they even share the turkey dripping pans at thanksgiving with my two. : p
We live in Fl so my parent’s keep her shaved down that is why she has does not have a full coat like a normal GP.
