Adopt a Great Pyrenees (medium coat)

Children in the home must be at least 6 years old.

Female Great Pyrenees rarely cohabitate with other females successfully. Our goal is for each adoption to be a permanent placement, therefore homes that already have a female dog are not eligible to adopt a female Pyr.

Hi! My name is Angel. I am an young “Pocket Pyr”; weighing in at only 60lbs. I am a girl who loves to be out swimming, hiking and playing with my foster siblings. I require a secure fence, because like many Pyrs, I consider my property to be as far as the eye can see :) I require an experienced Pyr owner who has patience and is a strong pack leader. I will do best with structure and boundaries. My foster mom says my leash walking skills are coming along nicely. I am housebroken and very smart; sit and shake, anyone? Are you going to be that special someone that can provide me a “furever” home? I can be placed with other dogs and dog savvy cats.

About Us: National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) is not a shelter. We are a not-for-profit, tax-exempt coalition of Pyr rescuers and rescue groups. We save Pyrs and Pyr mixes across the country and place them in approved foster homes so we know how they will interact with
your
family. Please consider adopting or fostering. Every dog who is fostered or adopted makes room for another Pyr coming out of a kill shelter. Prior to adoption, NGPR dogs are fostered for a minimum of two weeks (usually more), spayed or neutered and fully vetted. Dogs coming from out of area are certified with a USDA health certificate before going to their new homes. Our rescuers adhere to the highest placement standards and will take back any dog whose adoption does not succeed. Visit www.nationalpyr.org to learn more about us, our mission and our breed.
