Adopt a pet

*** Check Out My Video Album Below! ***

Meet Shiloh! This big snuggly boy is what you might call a velcro dog. He'll drop his head right into your lap and give you a gentle Pyr paw if he feels you've been neglecting your petting duties. He'll cuddle with you on the couch until he gets too warm, then wander off to find the nearest AC vent! Shiloh is a leash-trained, and crate-trained gentleman with solid basic house manners and a reliable recall. His activity level is refreshingly laid-back — he's mostly a world-class loafer who's happiest snuggling on the couch with his people, though he does treat everyone to a delightful case of the zoomies in the evenings (and especially after a good brushing session!).

Shiloh lives happily with cats and has shown wonderful patience with them — he'll simply move to another spot if they've claimed his bed or kennel, and he shares a water bowl with all the household pets without a fuss. He loves being around other dogs and is very social by nature, so a home with a calm canine companion would really help him thrive. He's great around kids, happy to let them pet him, though he's more of a dignified observer than an enthusiastic playmate. He's fine when new people visit, and on walks he's always hoping to say hello to the other dogs he passes.

Shiloh will alert-bark at passersby when he's outside and will join the chorus when a delivery arrives, but he's much quieter indoors. He tolerates Dremel nail trims like a champ, making grooming a breeze. Shiloh's ideal home is with a moderately active family who can offer him regular walks, another calm dog for company, and either a 4.5-foot fenced yard or a commitment to leash walks. He doesn't need a lot — just your presence, your lap, and your love. And when he trusts you as his person? He'll reward you with the most beautiful smile and stay by your side forever.

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.

We have many Pyrs and Pyr mixes who need homes. You can see more of these beautiful dogs by clicking on Adoptable Dogs.
