^^ Yes!!! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I suppose; but I just adore this breed. I find them simply beautiful. They are so gentle, very quiet, love people, and are not vicious at all. They look fierce, but their personality is very gentle.
My friend who has this breed said that it does a marvelous job of running off any bears that wander to close . Believe me, given where we live, this is a very good thing. I came face to face with a bear this summer, a young one - only waist high to me, but I just turned around and it was no more than 2 meters away. :fear: I just froze!!!! It saw me, and I was so thankful that it just turned and ran (they are very shy by nature unless threatened or hungry). We have bears come by all the time. It makes me very nervous, especially at night. So I want a big dog! Not a one-bite yappy dog
