Re: [pyrnet] Pyr siting in catalog

[Karen <karen@benjaminfarms.com>]

   Thanks for the posting of the Pry.  sighting.  I always enjoy these 
posts. I was told once that the prys. can have two different head 
types.  One head type is more like the picture in the catalog (goldens 
are usually not referred to as ponies) and the other, being the more 
traditional round/square bear like head.  The head type in the catalog, 
(longer nose) has been breed more for the show dogs.  My pry also looks 
similar to the picture in the catalog.  I had question this about the 
head, when we first got her.  I have also wondered if this head type 
could be from some Akbash blood somewhere.  Annie was a rescue, so we 
were unable to trace her blood lines.
