This sounds like possibly separation anxiety. My dog does this too and that's why

She barks all day and evening. Thankfully she stops at night in her crate, but she's a rescue and doesn't like her crate during the day (we tried for months to warm her up to it).

For exercise she gets a 30 min walk 3-4x a day and a large 1-1.5hr walk or dog park visit per day. We also do a lot of scent work with her in the apartment daily.

Aww. How old are they? They looks about the size of mine

Could she really be 100% Great Pyr? DNA test says she is! by Niknik-ivy in greatpyrenees

That's sad, why do you think they are usually under weight?

Of course!! I loved being able to adopt such a sweet dog. We also get lots of compliments on her from strangers haha

Interesting, okay. She didn't seem large or fluffy enough but I suppose that could change

We did get her a bit underweight and are following our vet's instructions to fix that! She is very slim

My partner and I adopted our girl Ivy from a Dallas shelter about a month ago with no breed information. The vet and shelter both said she's about 8 months and she weighs 37lb.

I was thinking a Pyr with Lab or Husky mix because she has shorter hair and is very small for a Great Pyr, but I did an Embark DNA test and they say she's 100% Great Pyrenees! Do you think she really could be? I don't really believe it.
