My story

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

Meet Dennis, a handsome Great Pyrenees mix puppy with a gentle soul and a quietly confident spirit. Born on October 18th, Dennis is just 8 weeks old as of December 15th and already tipping the scales at 15 pounds—a solid start for a boy who’s sure to grow into a big, beautiful companion. Dennis has a wonderfully independent nature for such a young pup. He likes to keep his people within sight but is perfectly content relaxing or napping on his own, a trait so common in Great Pyrenees dogs. He’s not clingy or demanding—just calmly present and observant, taking in the world around him at his own pace. Curious and adventurous, Dennis loves exploring both the house and the backyard, confidently checking out new spaces and smells. He’s playful and enjoys toys and romping around with his brother, and he’s especially intrigued by his 100-pound foster brother. He very much wants to play—he’s just still figuring out how to interact with someone that big! Dennis is a brave little guy who doesn’t hesitate to try new things. Whether it’s hopping off the couch, stepping down from the deck, or boldly initiating play, he approaches life with quiet confidence. His activity level sits at a comfortable 5/10, making him an easygoing puppy who enjoys playtime but also appreciates downtime.His mom is a pure Great Pyrenees, and while dad is unknown, the entire litter of ten puppies is showing classic Pyr traits—laid-back personalities, thoughtful independence, and calm energy. Potty training has been surprisingly easy at such a young age. Dennis is already learning good habits, and by 12 weeks old, these puppies may be very well on their way to being reliably trained. Of course, accidents can still happen with small bladders, but they’re doing great. The pups are also being introduced to a bell system to signal when they need to go outside, which may be a wonderful tool for achieving early and consistent potty training success. Dennis is going to grow into a large breed boy who will be 65-75 pounds and will shine as a devoted companion who is equal parts gentle, brave, and beautifully independent.

More about this rescue

We are a group of dedicated rescue people who want to save as many dogs and cats from the local shelters before they are euthanized. On the average....there are only 1 out of 10 animals that get adopted from a shelter. We are dedicated to helping increase pet adoptions by offering a shelter animal a foster home to go to while awaiting an adoptive family to find them. Won't you please adopt a shelter animal? Or won't you please help us foster a shelter animal while we are looking for their perfect home? What a gift you can give a dog or cat by giving them a place to feel safe and secure....a forever home or a foster home. Won't you help us at Critter Companion Rescue give them a chance to have a life?
