My story

Meet Sue, a stunning Great Pyrenees with a gorgeous long, thick, and very soft tan coat, and captivating golden eyes framed by thick black eyeliner that makes her beauty truly unforgettable. This gentle giant is currently in boarding and seeking either a foster or furever home where she can shower her people with the endless love she has to give. Sue is the epitome of calm, sweet, and gentle – a precious girl who simply wants to be petted and cherished by her humans. She's a true people-lover who maintains eye contact while receiving affection, making every interaction feel special and connected. Sue walks very well on leash, never pulling because she genuinely wants to go wherever you go, making her the perfect walking companion. This smart girl also comes when called, and knows “sit” and “stay.” She gets along with dogs of all sizes and pretty much ignores cats entirely, being far more interested in receiving pets from her favorite humans than paying attention to the resident feline. Sue is good for brushings, and is quiet for a Pyr - she has never barked at a human, even when coming onto her property! She did fine riding in a car, and likes to ride in the side-by-side vehicle - this lazy lady thinks riding is so much more fun than walking! Sue is a former livestock guardian dog who retired herself from sheep farm life because she discovered she preferred seeking attention and treats from the neighbors rather than focusing on her guardian duties. She can climb fences, so she'll need either a home with 6-foot privacy fencing or committed leash-walking only. Her ideal home will be low to medium activity level, as she’s low-energy and only enjoys short, leisurely walks. She’d be fine as an only dog, as what she truly craves is a furever family who will dote on her always, comforting her during thunderstorms and fireworks, and giving her the constant companionship and affection that this love-hungry lady so deeply deserves.

More Information: Questions? The fastest way to learn more about a dog is to fill out our Adoption 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.

NYS Registered Non-Profit Rescue # RR102. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) has been rescuing and adopting out Great Pyrenees since 2006. Our relationship doesn’t end with adoption, as we continue to support adopters throughout the lifetime of their dog.

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.
