More stubborn than my mother in law

I just rescued a pyre and I read about the stubbornness but having it in real life is a whole other ball game. The weight and size with it is sooooo much more challenging.

We tried to practice a car ride and he kept trying to get the front and his weight made it so hard to put back.

How do you guys manage the stubbornness? Also, how do you guys do car rides(I also have a husky)

Pyr wont come inside

Just confirming that my Pyr refusing to come inside when it’s cold at night is ok (I live in Alabama).

New puppy

We have a almost two year old great pyrenees. She is really sweet and submissive towards humans, no aggression at all. She’s always been super uninterested in other dogs (unless of course it’s to bark at them from the yard), but even when my sisters husky comes to play, she is almost “awkward” with him? Like she wants to play but wont accept anything less than great manners on the other dogs end. She just seems to want to correct every little thing, and although she loosens up as time goes on, she still does it every time she sees him! We recently got a new puppy, and she has been stressed about it. she doesn’t like the puppy in her face AT ALL showing her attention back. she’s fine with sniffing and existing in the same room if the puppy stays away from her. She has play bowed towards her a couple different days, but as soon as the puppy does something a puppy will do, she corrects it. It doesn’t help that it makes me anxious because i’m sure she can feel that energy too. Is the correcting normal? is it because she is unconfident or under socialized? We have always brought her around other dogs, but as she has gotten older it’s been harder as she seems to have set stronger boundaries (and most people’s dogs have no manners as is) vs just being uninterested like she was as a puppy. i’m stuck on what to do. I do trust she isn’t being “aggressive” towards the puppy, but at the same time, correcting for licking her face seems extreme, and i don’t want it to escalate at all. Any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful🥲

Girl had an oops which scared us. She was embarrassed and it was hilarioso

I’m spending Thanksgiving at my sister’s in her guest room, her bed has a foot board that isn’t snug up to the mattress, it’s about a 2”/5cm gap. I was making breakfast in the kitchen and heard my sister yell my name so I rushed to the room. My sister explained that she was getting my girl riled up playing around when she decided to exit the bed from the foot rather than the side and dropped a leg into the gap, yelped, then squirmed her way out. I arrived just as she had freed herself. My sister had a worried look on her face for obvious reasons, I had the same face and went down to her to check she was alright. She wasn’t aggro which I knew was a good sign, but she didn’t want to put any weight on her leg which worried me. Her little eyebrows were giving straight “I’m sorry that was stupid, I’m also sorry for making that awful sound. Am I hurt? You guys are looking at me like I’m hurt…I must be hurt. Crap. I’m sorry…”

She let me help her lay down so I could feel her leg, nothing was tender I.e. she didn’t wince or complain when I pressed anywhere. I gave her a treat for letting me inspect, and then she put full weight on that leg and bounded into the living room. “Wow, I’m magically cured! How about THAT dad?”

TLDR. Dog thought she was hurt when I looked at her as if she were. A normally graceful doofus, so being not-so-coordinated embarrassed her.

Sadie’s first frozen water bowl. I heard her barking and I went to check, saw her barking at the water bowl so I broke up the ice for her. After I heard her barking again and here she is… still not so sure about ice in her water bowl.
