I have a Great Pyrenees and all he does is lay on his ass all day.
He is the most wonderful, low-strung dog ever. He eats the same amount of food as our other dog that weighs 30 pounds less.
Why? Because he is so darn lazy.
He’s not lazy he’s just conserving his energy so that when duty calls he will be at full strength. I have had several to guard my livestock. They may appear that they can’t be bothered with minor things but don’t get caught on the wrong side of the fence, no matter if your a man, beast, or fowl!
