Male Dog, Great Pyrenees
Great Pyrenees (Long Coat)
Description:
Live, love, laugh, and play hard… that is Ralphie’s motto! This boy has a zest for life and when he does something – he is all in—eating, playing, and loving everyone! He can’t get enough of people, other dogs, and treats, in no particular order. Ralphie had a sad start to life; he was found out wandering in a field at 5 weeks old. He has never let that bring him down and came to rescue ready to live life to its fullest. He is not afraid of anything and has a way about him that wins over all the dogs in his foster home. Ralphie has a soft wavy coat you can’t help but want to snuggle, which he loves to do with his foster mama - he can never get close enough! This boy is all PYR and will need a home with large breed experience, a secure fenced yard, and a large breed canine dog who is very playful! If you are a Great Pyrenees lover, looking to laugh every day, active, and ready for the ride of your life—apply for Ralphie today!

Transport: Not available to the West Coast - please see our list of Northwest dogs NYS Registered Rescue # RR102 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.
