My story

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

Winston is a 3 year old, male Great Pyrenees weighing about 100lbs. This boy is looking for a home where he can roam and patrol in a secure above ground fenced yard as he has proven to NOT stay within invisible fence boundaries... he ignores them, and that is not good for anyone. We are told: " Winston will not stay in the yard and I will not keep him on a lead any longer, he has been on a lead for 2 years after not staying in the invisible fence. He deserves an above ground fenced yard with other dogs and space to move! He is the best dog and deserves better." Winston Dooley is a gentle giant... so sweet and gentle, and calm yet curious.

He is said to have lived with other dogs and cats (GRRAND has not cat tested him) and his house-trained but not crate-trained, and is trusted to have full run of the house. He walks well on leash too.

He is a typical chill, low-key Great Pyreneese and we will update as we learn more, but if you would like to meet Winston our handsome Great Pyr, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org

More about this rescue

Early in 1994, members of the Greater Louisville Golden Retriever Club began to see the need for an organization to rehabilitate and find homes for displaced and abused Golden Retrievers. A number of folks in this club began organizing an ad hoc rescue group. As the number of rescues increased over a period of months, this “wet behind the ears” group came up with a name and in 1996, incorporated the organization now known as Golden Retriever Rescue & Adoption of Needy Dogs (GRRAND). The rest, as they say, is history!
