My story

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

Zita is the last remaining pup available for adoption from our Marley's Miracles litter of ten. Mama Marley was a Great Pyrenees who passed away from sepsis when the pups were just a couple of days old. The father was an Anatolian Shepherd mix.

1 year old Zita is an energetic girl. She gets the zoomies all the time and we love to watch her long legs run! At Zita's height, she can easily snatch things off of a table and does. However she hasn't taken to stealing things off the kitchen counter yet. Besides playing with the dogs in her foster home, one of Zita's favorite activities is chewing on a multitude of toys. She loves to tear apart stuffed animals, but doesn't eat the stuffing. Shy and reserved when meeting people, Zita has lots of personality in her foster home. A talker, Zita will let her foster mom know how she feels. Zita is treat motivated, potty trained, and does pretty well on a leash. Zita knows sit and goes in her kennel when you say round up.

We have been monitoring Zita's bloodwork regularly as three of her littermates passed from kidney failure. Zita's bloodwork was slightly elevated in the spring, however since then her results were really good so our vet has cleared her to be adopted. Zita is still on a low protein diet.

Zita will come to her adopter spayed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and up to date on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives.

More about this rescue

Great Pyrenees Rescue of Missouri is dedicated to rescuing Great Pyrenees who are without a home, need medical attention, or just need a safe haven as they transition to their forever home. We are a volunteer, nonprofit rescue, relying solely on your generous donations. We are currently working to establish our rescue facility in St. Clair, Missouri. Until our facility is constructed, we will be foster based only, with fosters in Missouri and surrounding states. We will continue to have fosters after our facility is built. Our facility will allow us to rescue more Pyrenees in need.
