My story

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

🐶 “Arlo: The Fluffiest Love Ambassador!” 🐶
Are you ready for a heartwarming tale of fur, fluff, and puppy kisses? Meet Arlo, the 6-month-old Great Pyrenees with a heart as big as his paws! 🐾
About Arlo:
• Name: Arlo (because “Sir Floofington” was too fancy for him)
• Age: 6 months (which translates to approximately 42 doggy naps and 84 zoomies)
• Breed: Great Pyrenees (the Rolls-Royce of dog breeds, but with more fur)
• Personality: Equal parts cuddle bug and backyard explorer
• Special Skills: Master of the “Puppy Eyes” technique (guaranteed to melt your heart)
Why You Need Arlo in Your Life:
1. Fluff Therapy: Feeling stressed? Arlo’s plush fur is like a built-in stress ball. Petting him instantly lowers blood pressure and boosts happiness levels. Plus, he doubles as a cozy pillow during Netflix marathons.
2. Guardian of Dreams: Arlo takes his job as a protector seriously. He’ll guard your home against squirrels, mailmen, and suspicious-looking leaves. Bonus: His bark scares away ghosts (unconfirmed, but we’re pretty sure).
3. Social Butterfly: Arlo’s social calendar is busier than yours. He’s on a first-name basis with every dog at the park, and he’s convinced that the neighbor’s cat secretly wants to be friends. (The cat disagrees.)
4. Snuggle Champion: Arlo excels in the art of snuggling. Whether it’s a rainy day or a Monday (or both), he’ll be right there, ready to warm your heart and your lap.
Winston’s Resume:
• Education: Graduated top of his puppy class (he aced “Sit” and “Stay,” but struggled with “Heel” because squirrels)
• References: The squirrels in the backyard (they respect his dedication)
• Health: Up-to-date on shots (he even high-fived the vet afterward) and microchipped (because he’s a modern pup)
Adoption Requirements:
• A loving home with plenty of belly rubs, and a securely fenced in back yard
• A yard for Winston’s zoomie sessions (he dreams of Olympic-level sprints)
• A heart big enough to match his fluffiness
• Looking for homes in the surrounding Pittsburgh, PA area

Additional adoption info

Since our dogs are kept with private families in a foster home setting... meeting our dogs is set up by an appointment. Thank you for understanding.
