Cinderella - or Ella - is a kind, gentle Great Pyrenees mama who gave birth to six beautiful puppies the day after arriving at a shelter. With her babies safe and thriving, this princess is finally ready for her own happily ever after. Ella is the definition of a Pyr who doesn't know a stranger. She greets every person with warmth, confidence, and that soft, steady sweetness the breed is known for. She is fully housebroken, rides beautifully in the car, and walks gently and effortlessly on a leash, making her a lovely companion for neighborhood strolls or weekend adventures. She carries herself with an easy grace that makes her feel like she truly belongs in a castle. In her foster home, Ella blends in effortlessly with dogs of all sizes - from a 45‑pound golden retriever to the resident pack of Great Pyrenees, whose smitten males think she hung the moon. She plays with everyone, joins in without ever being pushy, and loves to lounge on the dog bed while gently mouthing and playing with the younger male Pyr. She's calm, observant, and enjoys patrolling the yard and fence line so a 5-foot secure fenced yard is a must; she'll give a protective bark if she spots something concerning on the other side. Cats? She adores them. Ella happily shares her food dish, her bed, and her space with feline friends. Her versatility makes her a dream match for many homes. She could thrive with other dogs or be perfectly content as an only dog - perhaps with a cat or two to keep her company - and regular doggie play dates to let her socialize and stretch her legs. Her steady, unflappable personality would be wonderful for families with children, especially those familiar with large breeds. Cinderella is ready for her pumpkin‑to‑castle moment - the safe, loving home where her story finally turns magical.

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.
