Joey - Adopted!

Joey is a very sweet natured, 8 month old, neutered, purebred Great Pyrenees pup. He weighs 70 lbs today, and is fully vetted. Joey is now safe in rescue with his full brother & litter mate, Jesse. They were allowed to roam loose, unfenced, until they were in imminent danger of being shot to death for no reason other than their owner would not contain them. Jesse has no vices, just doesn't know a lot, which is good in a way, not his fault at all & he has no baggage. He will be a large, sweet natured boy, and a wonderful family companion. Has a particular fondness for children. Learning quickly to walk on a leash, ride in the car. Above ground fenced yard, veterinary reference, and home visit required to adopt this beautiful boy.

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.
