Jamie and I first started researching breeds of dogs as soon as we knew we were going to purchase our first home. We were not allowed to have a dog in our previous home, since we rented. So, instead of a dog, our pets consisted of a Bearded Dragon, Leopard Gecko, Corn Snake and even a Prairie Dog named "Lilly." Now, in our new home, we set out to find the right breed. We both had a few different dog breeds in mind that we thought we would like to make part of our family, and actually were pretty set on a certain breed. Then, we came across the Great Pyrenees, and it was all over. What a wonderful dog! We loved their personalities, mild manners, and calm nature. And of course, they are gorgeous! I had also been around a couple of Pyrs when I was younger, and remember how sweet they were.

Next, we began searching for a breeder, and Great Pyrenees of South Mountain was on our list. Tim is the type of breeder we were looking for. Someone who cares deeply about his dogs, the integrity of the breed, and cares about the people looking to own one of his puppies. Tim answered all of our questions, without hesitation, and just made us feel very welcome to call or visit the farm any time. He has continued his wonderful communication with us, even after we brought our pup home. Now, Jamie and I are the very proud owner's of "Indie". She is a Dream Catcher / Delilah pup, and is the most wonderful puppy we have ever met.

We are very lucky to have such a wonderful and beautiful little girl as part of our family. Her personality keeps us smiling, and her kindness is far beyond what we would have even expected out of a young pup. She truly epitomizes what a Great Pyrenees is-a loving, caring dog, with a heart of gold, and some mischief mixed right in! We joke that walking down the street with her, is like walking down the street with a rock star. We are stopped by so many people that want to pet her, and are just so amazed at how beautiful she is. People have even come running out of their homes as we pass by to stop us! Our short walks, well, are never short.
