1) What skis do you already have?
2) Great Pyreneese are a lot of work, are you up for it?  Are you committed to buying a pure bread, because if not, you can pay a lot less.

I guess if your skis are still going strong, go with the dog. Our house would be pretty quiet without our dog, and I think its nice to have. Yet, if you need new skis, get them. Its hard for me to tell you, because im not in your situation. All I know is if my skis were fine for another season, I would get the puppy.

as much as dogs are waaaaayyyyy > skis, you definitely need to account for the fact that skis are a one-off cost, and animals are an ongoing cost.

That dog would have to cost you a few thousand a year to keep and maintain

Any time you "need help with a decision," just get out your magic 8 ball. Seriously though, no one can (or should) help you with that decision based on the facts you gave (or lack thereof). Are you planning on going away to college in the next few years and then forgetting about the dog? Basically, what's your 10 year plan? Does it involve being at a steady home, with enough free time to devote to a dog? Skis are great, as you can always put them in a corner and forget about them, or sell them. Nothing you do to them can hurt their feelings.

Dogs are rad. Purebreds get sick alot, so prepare to pay up to you eyes for medacations for the years following.

True. Why would you want a purebred (just asking)? As far as I can see the only good thing about them, is that you can charge more for puppies you might eventually breed with it. Apart from that ...?
