It seems to me that I have seen breeds come and go then come back again, and some seem to have lost it forever. In order for a breed to prosper there have to be some ‘keepers’ of these breeds. These people are usually very keen judges and/or breeders who really care about a breed, and do not mind a little controversy along the way. These keepers of the breeds are very dedicated people, usually, who do not mind sounding off and fighting for the right way. If they are not fighters, they usually get trampled and ridiculed enough so that they give up in disgust and say to hell with it.

The Great Pyrenees was named for the Pyrenees mountain range, which forms a natural border between France and Spain, where they have been used as flock guardians for millennia. In Europe, the breed is called Pyrenean Mountain Dog. Their ancestors were likely the primarily white mountain flock guardian dogs from thousands of years ago in Asia Minor. They are renowned for their devotion to their flocks and their shepherds and their families. Many people recognize some breeds as dual dogs, succeeding in their original function as well as the show ring. The same can be said for flock guardian dogs. Many of these breeds we see in the show ring also work to protect livestock and other animals.
