Here's what the humans have to say about me:
In the misty backroads of rural South Carolina, where the pines whisper secrets to the wind, a colossal shadow once wandered alone. Targes, our 2-year-old Great Pyrenees, was a ghost of the breed he was born to be—his massive frame, meant for 120-130 pounds of fluffy majesty, had withered to ribs and resolve under the weight of neglect and endless hunger. Found as a stray, ribs stark against his snow-white coat, he dodged cars and kind hands, his deep amber eyes holding stories of betrayal and bare survival.
But Targus? He's no victim. From the moment volunteers scooped him up—trembling yet trusting—he began his quiet revolution. Now, with a belly full of hearty kibble and a heart mended by gentle fosters, he's blooming into the gentle giant he was always destined to be. At 100 pounds and climbing, his broad paws thunder like summer rain, but his touch is as soft as dawn mist. Targus will patrol the yard with watchful wisdom, alerting to squirrels with a soulful woof, then melting into a large lap warmer for movie nights. He's patient with kids, polite with other dogs, and utterly devoted—the perfect livestock guardian or family sentinel, ready to claim his throne by the fire.
Targus' not just surviving; he's thriving, waiting for the home that sees his scars as stars on a map to adventure. Will you be the pack leader who gives this Targus his crown? Apply today at Great Pyrenees Rescue Southeast—his forever starts with you.
