Aiken/NY-adopted

Adoption Pending. You can see more of these beautiful dogs by clicking on Rescue Dogs.

Aiken came up from the Bowling Green KY shelter mid-January. He was found wandering on a highway. What a love bug! He has had a hard life but that hasn't affected his sweet personality. His beautiful Pyr tail was shortened and we don't know how. His left hind leg has injury that we are raising funds for so it can be fixed. Otherwise, he is Pryfect! He is a little growly around other males so Aiken would probably do best with a female companion. He is currently in NY's Hudson Valley region.

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 to learn how they will interact with your family. Every dog who is fostered or adopted makes room for another Pyr coming out of a kill shelter. NGPR dogs are fostered for a minimum of two weeks or more, spayed or neutered and fully vetted before placement. NGPR will take back any dog who does not succeed in its new home. Many NGPR volunteers are members of the AKC breed club, adhere to their rescue guidelines for purebred Pyrs and apply these standards to the adoption of Pyr mixes as well. Visit www.nationalpyr.org to learn more about us, our mission and our breed.
