Adopt a pet

If you enjoy breakfast, and even if you don’t you will LOVE the Egg Litter—8 Great Pyr puppies who found their way into rescue when their owner became sick and could no longer care for them. Scramble is tiny, but mighty—just when her foster mom thinks she is the underdog she puts on her big girl panties and lays down the law with her siblings! Scramble is a super smart girl who loves a good mystery – she has already figured out 3 different treat games; one of which she is the only pup who can do it! Scramble believes in comfort indoors and out; outside she takes full advantage of the pool, playing in the water and inside she has discovered the AC vents to cool off :) This girl gets along with all the dogs in her foster home. She loves to cuddle with her brother, snuggling on the raised beds. Scramble is extremely respectful of the senior Pyr in her home; however she just can’t help herself and will wiggle her entire body, sneaking to give her kisses on the cheek—she is the only one who can get away with it! Scramble has learned hand signals to sit and is crate trained. Scramble will need a male doggie companion and a secure fenced yard. Miss “Sassy Pants” is ready to come teach you all about puppy cuddles, and how much fun she can be—apply today to learn more about Scramble!

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.
