He doesn’t attack them he just chases them off. His territory is HIS territory. He’s OK with the local deer walking through. He’s going to be two in September so maybe he’ll settle down a bit. He’s 3/4 Great Pyrenees, 1/8 Anatolian Shepherd, and 1/8 St. Bernard. We did a genetic test on him because we were told that he was 3/4 GP and 1/4 Anatolian. He has huge droopy jowls that are not typical for those breeds. After we got the test results back we knew where those goober jowls came from.
He’s still a baby!
If he’s like mine he’ll mellow.
BTW, that is a very interesting genetic mix.
I’d assume Anatolians possess very similar instinctive instinctive behaviors as a Pyr, to guard and protect, assertive but not aggressive.
