Adopt a pet

Just like Casper the friendly ghost, our Casper is a sweet, goofy boy who loves nothing better than being your best buddy. This young boy is sweet, loving, and goofy - all the qualities that give him the pawtential to be your loyal sidekick. Since coming into rescue, Casper has been working on his house manners and polishing his basic cues, after all, he aspires to be THE GOODEST BOY. With his happy-go-lucky pyrsonality, Casper makes friends easily and both two-legged and four-legged friends are more than happy to hang out with him. Casper is an awesome playmate and the class clown of the pack; he loves being chased and enjoys being the center of attention. This big puppy is a ball of sunshine and he loves being with his four-legged foster siblings as much as cuddling with his favorite people. Like most Pyrs he likes to 'excavate' a bit but is easily distracted. Other than that, Casper will be content in a relatively active home where his people and siblings will welcome him as an essential part of the family. We are pawsitive that Casper will bring so much joy and happiness to one lucky family!

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.
