Great Pyrenees Hair Coat

The Great Pyrs have moderate to heavy shedding— it depends on the climate. Expect white hairs all over your furniture and belongings. Despite that, grooming is actually fairly easy. They only need 30-minute brushing, and their silk-like hairs dry quickly, and dirt can get combed out easily. While the hairs can make quite a mess, you can simply gather them outside and let the birds use them to build a nicely insulates-nest for their babies.

Pyrs have double coats— a long, thick, coarse topcoat covering a dense, woolly coat under. Some dogs have them straight, while others may have slight waves, but there’s no curly coat. A mane/ruff is present on the neck— males have more of it. Also, there are longer hairs (feathering) on their legs, which form pants on their thighs’backs. Their tails have a plum, while short and fine hairs adorn their ears and faces.

Excessive hair loss or other skin and hair coat issues should be brought to the attention of your veterinarian Kerrville TX.
