Meet our sweet 2-month-old
Great Pyrenees puppies!
These fluffy little cloud pups are already showing the gentle, steady nature their breed is known for.
Even at this young age, they're calm, observant, and incredibly affectionate-true little guardians in training.
About the Breed:
Great Pyrenees are famous for their loyal, patient, and protective temperament. Originally bred to watch over flocks, they have a natural instinct to look after their family, both human and animal.
They typically grow into large, majestic dogs with a soft, plush coat and a calm, confident presence.
What to Expect as They Grow:
• Gentle Temperament: Known for being loving, tolerant, and great with kids.
• Protective Instincts: They make devoted family ‘guardians -watchful but not aggressive.
•Independent Thinkers: Smart and capable, but sometimes stubborn; positive, consistent training works best.
• Moderate Energy: Playful as pups, then mellow into peaceful companions who enjoy outdoor time.
• Big Dogs, Big Hearts: Adults often reach 80-120+ pounds, so adopters should be prepared for a large breed with a big personality.
These little ones are at the perfect age to begin bonding, socializing, and learning the basics. With love, patience, and room to grow, they'll become the kind of dogs that are not only beautiful to look at, but wonderful to live with.
If you're ready for a gentle giant in the making, these pups may be the perfect match!

More about this rescue
The Milo Foundation is an established 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill organization providing an alternative for homeless pets throughout California, through education, adoption services, and providing sanctuary for animals until permanent homes can be found.
Founded in August of 1994, The Milo Foundation Sanctuary is located on two hundred and eighty-three acres in Mendocino County - offering lots of room for the animals to run and play. The Milo Sanctuary animals typically (but not exclusively) are harder to adopt animals and those needing more rural type homes, such as dogs with social or behavioural challenges, feral cats, horses and other farm animals. The Milo Point Richmond Adoption Center is where the majority of our new rescue intake takes place, typically friendly, adoptable cats and dogs, puppies and kittens rescued from shelters where they were facing euthanasia. The Sanctuary is where highly active or reactive dogs can go and have plenty of space, other canine companions (if they are dog friendly) and live in a stress free environment until such time as the right adoption match can be found.
The Milo Sanctuary is what enables Milo to be a No-Kill organization. Milo brings dogs back and forth from the Adoption Center (MPR) to the Sanctuary to give dogs a break from the stresses of the kennel environment and back to MPR later to try again at being adopted. Potential adopters also do come up to the Sanctuary to adopt, by appointment.
