Keeping LGD’s in the house can be a little controversial. Great Pyrenees need a space to patrol and a job to do, but sometimes their work can be a little noisy. We operate our small farm on 1 acre in a neighborhood. Because of our location, and because wildlife in the area is abundant, our Great Pyrenees bark a lot! So they come inside a lot too, so that our neighbors don’t have to endure their barking. But their patrolling doesn’t stop just because they come inside. Their sense of smell and hearing, even from inside, is absolutely amazing. And watching out the upstairs windows to “patrol” the neighborhood from a lofty vantage point is one of their favorite things to do inside! While they’ve admittedly gotten a little bit spoiled, especially in hot humid weather, they have proven themselves capable of keeping our animals safe from predators.
