Female Dog, Great Pyrenees
Great Pyrenees (Long Coat)
Description:
This spunky and sweet pocket-sized girl is Glacier! Glacier ended up at a very crowded shelter in Tennessee after her previous owners surrendered her for eating chicken eggs (despite being good with the chickens!). Now we have Glacier safe in boarding with rescue, and she is looking to find a foster or forever home of her own. She has been described as a gentle, sweet girl who likes everybody she meets. She loves other dogs, is unfazed by cats, and is fantastic meeting new people! Glacier has lived indoors and is crate, leash, and house-trained. She has a healthy respect for fencing (a 5’ fence would suit her fine), and is not an escape artist, which is more than we can say for some of her Pyr peers! Because she has the goofy, curious energy of a youngster, her perfect forever home will include a loving parent or two, a canine friend to play with, lots of fun walks and exercise, and a cozy crate to snooze in when unattended at home. She's a beautiful girl who deserves nothing less than a loving life from now on! - Written by K.P.

If you call or e-mail you are reducing your chances of adopting this animal as we direct our time and energy to first serving those who apply. NYS Registered Non-Profit Rescue # RR102. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) has been rescuing and adopting out Great Pyrenees since 2006. Our relationship doesn’t end with adoption, as we continue to support adopters throughout the lifetime of their dog. Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
