Carter - The Great Pyrenees
Although he should be living outdoors, Carter is such a charmer that he gets to come in most nights. He will sit by my chair and put his twelve pound paw on me until I agree to rub his head.
We have learned from him that paying attention doesn't require fretting.
Carter is a "one day at a time" dog. When assigned to guard the ducks and chickens, he just lays around, looking lazier than a teenage boy.
But let stray dog or a hawk enter the grounds and immediately he is at attention.
His deep, barrel chested bark can be heard by the neighbors a mile away.
