bringer of joy

chien de montagne des pyrenees/ great pyrenees mountain dog

meet beatrice, our new puppy.

beatrice is a french name meaning happy, bringer of joy.

abbey is loving her.

soaking up the sun with jesse and abbey.

maggie and bronte' getting used to the new resident.

today was one of those beautifully perfect days.

the weather was the best. sunny, cool with the winds blowing.

we have been doing some research on these gentle giants.

they make great livestock guardians...for sheep, cattle, and fowl.

they are loyal and fiercely devoted to family.

they are great around children if raised with them from puppy hood.

they are quite serious dogs with an intelligent look in their expression.

she will be at least 80 lbs.

right now she resembles a bear.

most likely she will lose all her colouring and be pure white with a black nose.

bronte' jane and buster brown after chasing the frisbee.

we bought her from windy acres farm.

some farmers that are coming the leiper's fork farmers market.

this is the second time the market has been out in leiper's fork.

it's going to take people a while to find it.

baby herbs plants for sale.

there was a lovely harpist playing .

beautiful hand made baskets abounding...of course fresh produce, eggs, & bread.

...and then of course there were puppies.

we are hoping the market here will catch on so the farmers and artists will keep coming.
