My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Adorably scruffy, Theodore will be quick to win your heart. This cute guy dons a super-cool mohawk and goatee that beg to be scratched. He is housebroken, leash trained and crate trained, and also knows “sit,” “down,” and “wait.”  This playful boy is fun, silly, charming, and sweet. Theodore loves meeting new people and other dogs. He’s is medium-energy, and would make an excellent adventure companion and he’s already been camping and hiking! Theodore would love an active family who will take him out to explore. He’s a happy go-lucky guy who’s never met a stranger. In fact, he expects everyone to pet him when he’s out visiting stores and dog parks! He adores all the attention that he can get. He is sure to give you a good laugh with his silly antics like playing hide and seek, and tossing you his water bowl when it’s empty, as if to say, “I’m thirsty people! Help a guy out, will ya?!”. Theodore would love another dog in his new home to play with and keep him company, or if he’s to be an only pup, then regular doggie daycare or play dates for this social butterfly! If Theodore sounds like the right fit for your home, apply today!

NYS Registered Rescue # RR102

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.

If you can't foster or adopt at this time, please consider helping our Neediest Cases or making a tax-exempt donation by visiting our Donate page.

Please complete the adoption application and visit nationalpyr.org to learn more about Pyrs and our adoption process. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) is not a shelter. We are a non-profit, tax-exempt rescue who has been rescuing the breed for 15 years.  Visit nationalpyr.org to learn more about us, our mission and our breed.

More Information: Questions? The fastest way to learn more about a dog is to fill out our online application. If you call or e-mail you are reducing your chances of adopting this animal as we direct our time and energy to first serving those who apply. 

We have many Pyrs and Pyr mixes who need homes and not all of them are posted. You can see more of these beautiful dogs by clicking on Adoptable Dogs.
