Hi - my name is Joey and like most Great Pyrenees, I am just a giant hunka love. Within 24 hours, I was already my foster mom's shadow, constantly wanting to be at her side. The resident dog is ok, but I really just want to be close to my people.
While I'm new to leash walking, I'm already up to two miles! It may not always be super fast, but I get it done. Honestly, I'd rather just lay around all day, either in your lap or on my foster sister's dog bed.
Oh, and did I mention my foster mom says I'm a really gentle treat taker? Well, it's true. Speaking of gentle, I was in need of having one of my dewclaws trimmed when I came into rescue. While it was pretty gnarly, I barely flinched when they took care of it for me.
I'm not a huge fan of the crate, but my foster parents are helping me get used to it. It's good to be crate trained in case my new parents ever need a sitter for me.
So, long story short, if you're into mellow pups who really just want to snuggle with you, I may be your guy.
Adoption Fee: $495

Breed and age are often determined on appearance, our own knowledge, veterinarian advice, and/or information from the sending shelters or previous owners. Most of our adoptable dogs were previously stray dogs with little history, we can’t be 100% sure of a dog’s breed mix, and unless there is a specific date of birth listed, we can’t be 100% sure of a dog’s age. Additionally, our assessments of a dog's interactions with other dogs, cats, or children are based on OUR experiences. Your experience may differ.
