Meet Marie, a gorgeous Great Pyrenees girl with all the classic hallmarks of her breed - long, fluffy white fur, and a heart full of sweetness. She came to us after being found chained to a house in Alabama, and while that past might hint at hardship, you'd never know it from the joyful, affectionate girl she is today. Marie is proof that love and patience can make all the difference. She's fully housebroken, leash trained, and crate trained, with excellent house manners and a playful, moderate energy level. She's working on her basic commands and is eager to please, which makes learning fun for everyone! A 4-foot fence will keep her happily contained. She has zero interest in escape, digging, or barking.

Socially, Marie is a gem. She does wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and truly thrives when she has a canine companion by her side - a fellow four-legged friend in her forever home would make her world complete. She's also great with kids, gets along fine with cats, and has even lived peacefully alongside chickens. When meeting new people she can be a little shy at first, but once she warms up, she is pure sweetness and affection. Marie loves treats of all kinds (cheese, chicken, doggy ice cream, and popsicles are all on her approved list), and she's equally happy lounging in a warm patch of sunshine or cooling off on the kitchen tiles. She loves a good bath, enjoys outings to local stores, and has a refined taste in music - her foster reports she's a jazz fan. Whether curled up inside or out in the yard, wherever the other dogs are is exactly where Marie wants to be.

Marie is an absolute treasure - loving, well-mannered, and so ready to give her whole heart to the right family. She will thrive in almost any home, so long as patient, loving people are willing to show her she's finally found her furever 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.

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