Adopt a Great Pyrenees / Anatolian Shepherd / Mixed (short coat)

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

Previous dog experience is required, preferably large breed.

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.

My name is Wyn and I am a very sweet girl who is thought to be a Pyr/Anatolian Shepard mix. I LOVE cats. There are no children in my foster home, but I love to meet and greet kids when I’m out and about. I walk pretty well on a leash. I’m housebroken and if you leave me home, as long as I have a comfy dog bed, I will be there waiting when you get back. I love attention and affection, and will sit for hours to be brushed or petted. I have been in rescue since I was a very young pup due to needing hip surgery, so am well socialized. I now have the all-clear from my doctor and thanks to NGPR, I can run like the 'Wynd"! I’m fostered in CT with Horton (who is also available for adoption), and get along quite well with him, as well as the other dogs in my foster home. It is time for me to move along and find my own furever home...will that be with you?

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.
