Adopt a pet

If you're looking for a gentle, loving Pyr who is basically already the perfect dog, look no further - Ziva is here and ready to find her forever family! Ziva came to us as a stray from Georgia, but don't let that fool you - this girl was clearly someone's well-loved baby. She is housebroken, leash trained, crate trained, and knows her basic commands. She is simply waiting for the right family to claim her as their own. With a medium activity level, Ziva is happy to balance cozy indoor snuggles with sunny outdoor lounging. She loves going on walks and is a natural social butterfly, happily greeting new people on adventures to Lowe's and PetSmart. A 4-foot fence is all you need to keep this non-escape-artist sweetheart safe and sound at home. Ziva is a wonderful companion for just about everyone. She does beautifully with dogs of all sizes, is indifferent to cats, adores kids, and has even proven herself to be chicken-friendly. She's not a barker and has zero known fears or dislikes - she is, in her foster mom's words, just a “super sweet baby.” When she's not busy charming everyone she meets, you'll find Ziva flopped on her back enjoying a big comfy dog bed, or watching TV (she has a particular soft spot for ASPCA commercials - a compassionate girl!). She loves listening to good music, soaking up the sun, and spending quality time with her people. Bath time? - She's a fan. Being a pampered girl? - Absolutely her thing. Treat her to some bone broth, dried salmon, or dried chicken, and you'll have a friend for life. Ziva can be a little shy and submissive at first, but her heart is enormous, and once she's comfortable, she is pure love. She would thrive in a family home or as an only dog - as long as she has her people, she is happy. Come meet your girl!

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.
