My name is Bronco in MD - pending!

You can see more beautiful dogs by visiting our Adoptable Dogs page.

Bronco is an easy-going, calm and quiet boy who adores people more than anything else. He loves to climb up into his foster mom’s lap and give kisses in exchange for back scratches and rubs. Bronco also gets along great with his siblings and the resident dogs, as well as everyone he meets! He is playful but very calm, and enjoys chilling with his human or fur friends. He loves one-on-one bonding the most but he does not demand it. Bronco was a newborn when he came to rescue, and knows nothing but love and joy. He’s a great listener, and has already learned “sit,” “come,” and touch. Plus, he’s crate trained and leash trained! Bronco’s love for food probably has something to do with his excellent listing skills, and he requests that his forever family keeps a stockpile of cheese, bread, and peanut butter for him! Bronco will need a home with another fur sibling, a secure fenced yard, and a parent with large-breed experience. If you are looking for an easy-going, sweet, gentle, and patient Pyr boy who loves napping by your side, Bronco is ready to meet you!

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.
