Meet Adella, a sweet Pyr girl who is ready to find her happily-ever-after! Adella was found as a stray, wandering in Tennessee, and is currently enjoying her time in boarding while she waits for a foster or, even better, a forever home. She has been doing well at doggie daycare and has happily spent time with other dogs, both male and female, getting along quite well with everyone. When she sees other dogs, she approaches with a wagging tail and a friendly attitude. She is an excellent car passenger, jumping right into the vehicle and riding very nicely! Adella is learning to walk well on leash without pulling. She is a bit timid around people and needs to be approached slowly and gently so she doesn't get startled and look to run away. She has shown no aggression - she simply needs patience and time to build confidence with her people. Loud noises can also startle her, such as a car door shutting or a lawnmower starting up. With a calm approach, reassurance, and a little time, Adella is sure to continue blossoming into the wonderful companion she is meant to be. This lovely girl deserves a safe, calm place to call home, so if you have a 5-foot fenced yard and room in your heart for a sweet Pyr who is learning to trust, please consider fostering or adopting Adella!

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.
