Hobbes
Great Pyrenees / Anatolian Shepherd / Mixed (long coat)

​

Buttons is one of Elsa's pups, born here at Windsong Ranch on 12/17/2015.  As a baby, Buttons was one of the smaller pups compared to most of her siblings, but at 7 months old, she weighed 72 lbs, so she is clearly growing into a big, healthy, BEAUTIFUL girl. Buttons is very adventurous and playful, but she also loves to cuddle.  She gets along well with other dogs and puppies, and is being raised around our livestock. She has also had some house-training and crate-training and is quite content to sleep inside with her family, as long as she gets plenty of time to play in the yard during the day.

We believe that Elsa is a Great Pyrenees/Akbash, and we also believe that there were at least two different sires to this litter of puppies. Because of Buttons' blue eyes, it's most likely that her dad is a blue-eyed Great Pyrenees/Akbash who was rescued at the same time.  We rescued Elsa and 20 other dogs and puppies after a backyard breeder in Arizona was shut down by local officials. Arizona rescue organizations stepped up to take in 50+ small breed dogs, but all of the large/giant breed dogs were brought to Texas.
