A large dog (males can weigh between 90-125 pounds), the Pyrenees has a relatively small appetite, surprising not only for it's large size but for that the breed loves activity. The Pyr, as it is nicknamed, is obedient and loyal, as well as affectionate and gentle. This intelligent dog makes a very welcome family pet.</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B> </B></FONT></div> <div> <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Comic Sans MS" ><A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akbash_Dog" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akbash_Dog"><U><B>Akbash</B></U></A></FONT><A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akbash_Dog" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akbash_Dog"><U><B> </B></U></A><B>- Native to western Turkey in the region known as the Akbash, and it is primarily used as a Livestock Guardian Dog.
