From the AKC standard
FRONT FEET: ROUNDED, CLOSE-CUPPED, WELL PADDED,
        TOES WELL ARCHED.
        A sound front-end assembly is critical for breed function. Good
        reach is required for efficient movement on flat and rough
        terrain. Powerful shoulders and strong, flexible pasterns allow
        the Great Pyrenees to absorb shock as it easily descends steep
        slopes.
Pasterns are strong and flexible, set on at a slight slope to the
        lower leg bone.
        Each foreleg has a single dewclaw.>>

Where on earth does this come from?  The part in caps is a quote from the
standard.  the rest is not.  Somebody's commentary?  If so, whose?  It's
fine to quote opinion and commentary, personal or from the GPCA or whatever,
but it is important to be clear what is part of the official standard and
what it not.
