Adopt a Great Pyrenees (medium 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.

We are happy to introduce Deja, a very pretty young lady. Aptly named, as NGPR has certainly experienced wonderful rescue Pyrs, over and over. Been there, seen it before!!! Deja was lucky enough to come into rescue, and has blossomed into a loving, playful girl. Perfectly sized at about 70 lbs. with a manageable and stunning shorter white coat, with just a touch of gold on her ears and her head. She is smart, and has learned sit and down, and contrary to most Pyrs, Deja actually comes when called! She needs a furever home where she can get all the love and attention she so rightly deserves. At around 1 1/2 years old, she will be a faithful companion for many years to come. Deja would probably do best as an only dog in the house, or could be placed with a tolerant submissive male. She really likes to play, and her exuberance may be a bit overwhelming to some other dogs. She likes her toys, and will bounce and jump to retrieve a tennis ball. Add to that, Deja gives the sweetest kisses ever! Please consider opening your home and heart for Deja. You will be rewarded over and over again, as she becomes a loyal, playful, and beautiful family member.

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.
