Adopt a Great Pyrenees / Saint Bernard / Mixed (medium coat)

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

Previous dog experience is required, preferably large breed.

Hercules is a big handsome Pyrenees mix boy who recently came into rescue. This big sweet boy absolutely loves people and he adores attention. He is a big love...an extra big and fluffy boy with a beautiful coat and a great smile! He walks wonderfully on leash and loves chin and neck rubs. He enjoys meeting people and enjoys spending time outdoors. Herc likes to survey the landscape and keep a good eye on everything going on. He is a sweet fella who is looking for a great home of his own. He was thin when he came in to rescue but has a good appetite now, and eats well. His foster mom loves him and thinks he may be mixed with Saint Bernard. He would do great with a family and would love to play with kids and enjoy the attention of a loving family. Please consider making Hercules a part of your family!

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.
