Adopt a Great Pyrenees / Mixed (long coat)

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

Previous dog experience is required, preferably large breed.

Who can resist this face with these gorgeous black-lined eyes...and that curly white fluff of a tail? JR is a new young southern lad who has come into rescue. He is just a friendly, playful guy who craves attention and is looking for a family to lavish all of his love on. JR is just a year old, and so is really still a puppy. He knows to sit for treats and his dinner. Due to his young age, JR would benefit from obedience classes or a human who will work with him and provide him the leadership and guidance every young man needs. At 65 lbs, JR is a smaller boy with lots of energy. He would love a home with other dogs to play with, a large fenced yard, and older children. He gets along with cats, although if given the chance would probably chase until the wise cat puts him in his place! If you are looking for a young smaller mixed Pyr boy, are active and/or have a playful dog looking for a companion, JR is your boy!

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.
