Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Teddy's human mom had to move to California to take care of her elderly father and could not take him. He is 9 yrs old and a love bug. He is okay with female dogs but would prefer a home without male dogs.
NO INVISIBLE FENCING. It does not keep most pyrs in and does not protect them from other animals or people who enter the yard. Nor does it protect other animals and people who enter their yard. These are guardian dogs by nature.

Our dogs are not in a kennel, they are in foster homes. Keep in mind that we are a volunteer organization and encourage serious inquiries only. The beauty of a Great Pyrenees can take your breath away, but they are unique dogs which require dedicated owners who have thoroughly researched the traits of the breed.

Northeast Pyrenees Rescue sponsors dogs from the Northeast including New Jersey for placement in homes in our region.
Great Pyrenees are known for their barking as they were bred to be Livestock Guardians. HOWEVER, a dog not raised around farm animals does not automatically become a Livestock Guardian. They are trained from birth to do that job. If you need a working dog you should contact a reputable breeder for a trained dog. Find breeders at Great Pyrenees Club of America www.gpcaonline.org
