I know, just the idea that this girl is so closely related to my 4 boys is a bond. She's a full sister to my 4 & 5 yr old Pyr boys and 'niece', I suppose it 
would be, to my 8 & 9 yr old boys. Her present owner told me, "You just won't believe how sweet she is!" I said, "Oh yea I will" lol! I
've got 4 of her closest relatives walking around here all day long :-)
And the mannerisms-little things like the way they sleep, the way each one greets people just the same, all the things I take for granted are 'Pyr 
things' until I get an unrelated foster Pyr in. Then I realize all over again that these things are "MY Pyr's things".
I've had only the 4 Pyr boys since I lost the 2 girls several years ago. I had 6 Pyrs for quite a few years in a row. With this girl and the Pyr girl that lives 
with her both coming I'll have 6 Pyrs again, at least til the 2nd girl gets placed.
I think I like that idea! My husband has always said if we had a houseful of *Pyrs insead of a houseful of other breeds it wouldn't seem difficult at all.
