Re: [pyrnet] Intro and question

Welcome to the list!  Regarding the question about a book on Pyrs, the 
"bible" would be Paul Strang's book, "The New Complete Great Pyrenees".  You 
can get it through Amazon.com.  If by chance you can find a copy of John 
Gordon's book, "The Pyrenean Mountain Dog", it is excellent (but also out of 
print).  This the English equivalent of the Strang book, and I personally 
like it better.  Goes into more depth about the dog, breeding, care taking, 
etc, while Strang has a more historical approach.  There is another new book 
out about Pyrs that is also a good beginners book that does concentrate on 
Pyrs and doesn't just generalise.  Unfortunately I don't have it and can't 
remember the title or author.  Can someone else help fill in the blanks?
