Lady is a former Livestock Guardian Dog who has earned a life of leisure. She is sweet, gentle and deliberate as befits her age. At almost 9 years old, Lady is in good health and requires no medications. Lady is in search of a new home due to her owner's sudden death. Formerly a goat guardian, Lady is now retired from guarding goats and enjoying being a house dog. Although “retired,” Lady is not yet ready to be a “couch potato.” She loves being outside, rides well in the car, is good on a leash and loves long walks in the park, investigating everything she sees. She is housebroken and trustworthy when left alone in the house. Lady enjoys the company of other adult dogs, and her two foster “brothers” (ages 6 and 7) are showing her what being a pet is all about. Her coat had to be shaved due to extensive mats and tangles, but it is already starting to regrow into her full thick normal coat. A soft bed to lie on, a cozy blanket for naptime, and loving companionship will provide Lady with all she needs for her “golden years.”

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. More Information: Questions? The fastest way to learn more about a dog is to fill out the application form below.
