Big Fluff


Indy just doesn't get enough love on here. You know, I don't think I have ever mentioned her! Well, I will certainly make up for lost time.

Indy is our 2 1/2 year old Great Pyrenees.

What is a Great Pyr, you ask?

They're large breed guardian dogs. She basically looks like a polar bear, acts like a teddy bear (you know, if everything you ever thought a teddy bear was, actually came to life) and makes the best pillow. She was the "runt" of a large breed litter.

She's a gentle giant.

So sweet and good with Lucy.


Here's a picture of her as a pup:

Another from the day we brought her home:


Her favorite things include lying down to eat (I'm not joking and will post a picture at the bottom to prove it), barking at absolutely anyone or anything that might walk by our house, being best friends with our cat and jumping up on the couch when she's really excited. She's a laid back, loving dog. She's part of the family, not "just a pet".

She lets Lucy rip and pull on her hair, and somehow knows that she just can't get mad. If she's had enough, she just gets up and moves.


No snapping, growling, nipping. She just looks at us with her big, pathetic brown eyes, as if saying,


"Please mama, make her stop!"

Here's our little sweetheart in action:



Can't wait to get another Great Pyrenees sometime soon!
