NYS Registered Rescue # RR102

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.

If you are looking for a fun loving, happy-go-lucky girl, Addie is the one for you! This social butterfly ended up in rescue due to her owners not keeping her fenced. She was a repeat offender at the shelter and after three strikes her owners did not come back for her. Addie was a favorite with the shelter workers who would groom and play with her each time she was an inmate at the dog jail :) She ignores cats, and absolutely loves human companionship - she melts with every pet! One of her favorite things to do is run and play in the yard. She is an affectionate girl who loves it when her foster mom gives her kisses and lets her give them back, just yearning to hug her! She is the sweetest thing and loves to follow her foster mom around the house. Addie is a very confident gal who does not know a stranger. She rides great in the car, hopping in and out for the next adventure. She is also housebroken and is very smart - she has picked up obedience commands including come, sit and down (Addie will do anything for a treat!) This sweetheart is the complete package and would make a great addition to any family - she's going to make someone a wonderful furever best friend. She can be placed with kids, cats, and low energy male dogs or would be fine as an only dog. Addie is waiting for you, so don’t delay!

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.
