Gracie Queen Bee!
News from an Owner. Gracie lives in North Carolina
 |
I think she would die trying to protect any animal or human on this property. I have even heard of Great Pyrenees not even backing down from a bear. That said, they usually loose unfortunately. They are gentle giants.... All love too. Not a mean bone in her body. She rules the roost around here. Even my shepherds bow to her. I love that big girl. She is truly our guardian......

Pics from Jolene's First Year!
I love to keep in touch with our puppy owners, and am thrilled to get news and pictures of the dogs as they grow.
Thanks Jolene and Family!
Doing her job protecting her territory and her most important
herd member!
It's hard work!
Here is what Jolene's mom had to say,
"Hi, I just wanted to send you a note to give you an update on Jolene, She is 80 lbs and is perfectly healthy! She is just the best dog- loved by everyone who meets her, even the non-dog types! Remember, you picked her out for us! I just think that shows how much you know about the breed, You matched the perfect puppy to our family. She's really amazing, She comes almost everywhere with me- we drop and pick up the kids together. Yes, she boats with us and is welcome at all of our relative's houses. She's extremely gentle, yet completely without fear, I wish I could send you this great video I captured of her chasing a pretty good sized buck out of the yard. She was super proud of herself too!!
You know the hair is not a big deal at all, just in case people ever ask, so much less than a golden or lab. I brush her about tow to three times a week, but it's enjoyable time really.
Ok, I can go on and on and on about Jolene and Great Pyrs!
I still visit the blog every once in a while and drool over the new puppies.
Wish I could take them all!

New Owner Testimonial
 |
| 8 Month Old Female (Zofi) New Owner Testimonial:
Zofi also saved our first calf, Ellie. Ellie was born without our knowledge one morning. We thought we had lost her to coyotes. We found her when we saw Zofi on a hillside about 25 yards from the top corner pasture. You'd never see the calf if it weren't for her. As I climbed up through the limbs and hillside, I saw two beautiful black eye balls looking at me from behind Zofi who was laying in front of her. She's been a real blessings on our homestead. Know she is loved, and is doing a great job for us.

Our Dogs
"KING"
Welcome to our blog! Welcome to our East Tennessee farm! The Majestic Great Pyrenees are massive, white, fiercely protective, and yet incredibly gentle Live Stock Guardian Dogs. We love this breed for it's loyalty, love, and grace. They can be used as workers or family pets. They are as serious about playing as they are about working. We use our dogs for both. "Hansen's Hilltop Guardian King", our stud is excellent at protecting his flock of children, goats(kids), pasture pigs, and chickens. Animals and children of all sizes are safe with him. He stands 31" at the shoulder. "King" has badger spots. Our females, "Memphis" and "Priscilla" are solid white. All are AKC registered. The Great Pyrenees' devotion to his human family is incomparable. We are grateful for and respect this amazing animal. We are pleased to offer our puppies to You!
Our Baby Sitter! Sometimes when the goats go out to feed, their young kids will stay behind with "King." The gentle giant shows his tenderness. Soon after a kid is born, "King" stays close to the baby to make sure it is fine.
We had a nanny that didn't care for her kid, so "King" licked him clean and keep him warm until we could take the kid into our care. That bottle-fed kid (located in the top right hand photo) was sold to a family who has many children to be a pet.
Young farm animals are not the only ones who love "King". He loves children and they him. Here are photos of Alice. This little girl does not have a pet and never had spent time on a farm. Soon after she arived and was introduced, she and "King" became the best of friends.
 |
Gentle, yes, but all 3 of our Great Pyrenees are intensly protective. Not only do they defend against animal and human intruders, but "Priscilla", our youngest female watches the sky and alerts us and the other dogs of any hawks or buzzards. She is developing into a wonderful guardian and protector.
