Rescue FAQs

Our goal is to match our rescued Great Pyrenees with the right home and environment. All of our Pyrenees are fostered in homes so that we may learn all about their temperament and health. In order to match a dog with the right home, we require a completed application for adoption and home visit.

Companion Great Pyrenees must be kept as an indoor pet.
For LGDs, proper fencing and shelter must be provided.
You must provide regular veterinarian care for your Great Pyrenees.

Serving VA, DC, MD, and WV.

Additional adoption info

You must be at least 25 years of age.
The adoption application must be filled out by the potential owner – it cannot be completed for another person or as a gift.

Two references and a vet reference will be checked, in addition to a home visit.

Upon adopting, the applicant will complete a Contract for care, and submit an adoption fee for $300 to BRGPRE. The adoption fee helps to cover all of the vet costs. Each dog is updated on vaccinations, dewormed, heart worm checked, tick disease checked, spayed or neutered, and microchipped.
