Great pyrenees rescued litter mates

Buddy on the right and Sissy are brother and sister Great Pyrenees, rescued from an owner that didn’t realize how big they would get. They grew to 160 lbs and 130 lbs, respectively. They were seven months old at the time we adopted them.

They were great affectionate dogs, calm and careful with the grand-kids, and other pets, including our cats and dogs. From afar, they looked like large Golden Retrievers that are white. However, up close, they were about twice the size, and their tails were particularly magnificent.

Their breeding was unknown, but we suspect they were from a puppy mill breeder. As they got older, they both developed endocrine problems. They passed away before they were six years old. We have many fond memories of these gentle giants.
