What Great Pyrenees need most from their food
The Great Pyrenees' giant frame and thick coat shape their needs:
Joint & Hip Health
EPA and DHA omega-3s and lean body weight support the joints large breeds are predisposed to strain.
Weight Management
Lean, nutrient-dense food maintains a healthy, joint-protective weight without filler calories.
Coat Quality
The thick, weather-resistant double coat depends on protein and omega-3s for health and density.
Large-Breed Growth
For large and giant breed puppies, calcium balance and growth rate matter — which is why our Beef and Chicken labels carry the AAFCO statement for growth of large size dogs (70 lb. or more as an adult).
Why freeze-dried raw is right for Great PyreneesGreat Pyrenees
Great Pyrenees are large, majestic livestock guardian dogs with a thick, weather-resistant double coat. Their giant frame brings joint predispositions and the need for lean weight, while the iconic coat depends on quality protein and omega-3s. As a calm, lower-energy guardian, they’re also prone to weight gain if overfed.
Loyal Saints supports the breed with omega-3s for the coat and joints, lean nutrient-dense nutrition for healthy weight, and clean, digestible food. For Pyrenees puppies, large-breed growth management with your vet is important.

The standard is King.
Loyal Saints was built because of one dog. King’s digestive sensitivities pushed Kristina Voltin to question the ingredients, processing and nutrition behind every bowl. She formulated a whole-food, freeze-dried raw diet from human-grade quality ingredients — food she felt confident feeding King every day. Every formula is held to that standard: would I feed this to King?
For Great Pyrenees owners navigating the same questions Kristina faced — about ingredients, about what’s really in the bag, about whether the food is actually good — Loyal Saints is the answer she built for them.

For a giant, thick-coated, calm breed, omega-3s support coat and joints while lean weight (via portion control) protects mobility.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best dog food for a Great Pyrenees?
An omega-rich, joint-supporting, lean diet. Turkey + Salmon supports the thick coat and giant-breed joints; Beef adds protein. Because this calm breed is prone to weight gain, use nutrient-dense food and portion control to keep them lean and protect the joints.
How do I care for a Great Pyrenees' coat?
The thick double coat depends on dietary protein and omega-3s. Turkey + Salmon supports coat health and density. The breed sheds heavily and blows its coat seasonally — quality nutrition plus regular grooming keeps the coat healthy.
How much should I feed my Great Pyrenees?
Great Pyrenees typically weigh 85–120 lbs, needing about 5¼–7 cups of freeze-dried raw a day as a complete meal (Beef or Turkey + Salmon; 5¾–7½ cups of Chicken), split into two meals. Adjust to body condition and activity; large breeds benefit from measured meals to reduce bloat risk.
Is freeze-dried raw good for a Great Pyrenees?
Yes. Start with single-protein Chicken (gentlest, most digestible) using a 7–10 day transition, or Beef for more protein density. All formulas are complete and balanced, made with human-grade quality ingredients, and free of fillers and synthetic vitamin premixes.
