Just in time to play in the snow the Panda Litter (10 enchanting Great Pyrenees/Border Collie mixes) are ready to meet their furever families! Olive is a gentle soul with endless love to share. Like her siblings, affection is her gift to exchange for snuggle time :) Olive is a curious and playful girl sure to win the hearts of many. Her deep eyes are quite unique—when she looks at you, it’s sure to melt your heart; so don’t look too close unless you are prepared to fall in love! Olive and her siblings continue to amaze their foster as they grow—they are the smartest, most loving puppies and have even mastered the doggie door to go potty. They have been raised with their mama and their foster's big dogs who they love, respect, and play well with. Olive can be placed with dogs, children and cats and will require a home who understands this unique breed mix, has a secure fenced yard at least 5 ft and a male doggie playmate for their new pup! If you are looking for a fun, playful, loveable pup, don’t look any further!

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.
