Meet Josie, the pint-sized powerhouse with a heart as big as her adventurous spirit! This charming Great Pyrenees girl may have been the runt of her litter, but she's definitely not letting that slow her down—she's always the first to explore, the first to investigate, and the brave little leader of her puppy pack. With her classic Pyr good looks wrapped in a sleek, shorter coat, Josie is rocking that low-maintenance flat fur while still turning heads wherever she goes. This bundle of puppy energy is living her best life learning commands and house manners, playing with her neighbor kid friends, and confidently navigating life alongside her 13 canine housemates (and yes, she's totally cool with cats too!). Josie's ideal forever home includes an active family, a 5-foot securely fenced yard for all her explorations, and a canine brother who can show her the ropes and be her lifelong adventure buddy. She's a 50/50 indoor-outdoor gal who's equally happy snuggling inside or splashing around in creeks. Whether she's munching on her favorite treats—bananas and apples—or soaking up all the attention she can get, Josie is just your typical Pyr puppy doing all the delightfully normal things that make this stage so special, and she's ready to bring that fearless, friendly energy straight into your heart and home!

NYS Registered Non-Profit Rescue # RR102. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) has been rescuing and adopting out Great Pyrenees since 2006. Our relationship doesn’t end with adoption, as we continue to support adopters throughout the lifetime of their dog.

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.
