a.k.a. chien des Pyrenees. "Descended from the Hungarian kuvasz and the Maremmano-Abruzzese, the Great Pyrenees is considered the aristocratic relative of the St. Bernard and the Newfoundland.... At the court of the Sun King, the dog was known as the 'gentleman with the white fur.'" (Simon & Schuster's Guide to Dogs, 1980)
