My story

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

🐾 Meet Minnie – A Gentle Great Pyrenees Mix Searching for Her Forever Home 🐾

Minnie is a 1-year-old Great Pyrenees mix with a soft heart and an even softer soul. Her story began when she was found abandoned as a young puppy in the country, wandering until she landed at a home that took her in. While they meant well, as Minnie grew and her Great Pyrenees instincts kicked in, it became clear that her needs were more than they could manage. Like many livestock-guardian-type dogs, Minnie has a tendency to roam, and with limited time to devote to training and supervision, her owners felt they couldn’t give her the structure she deserved.

After having a litter of puppies—who have all since been weaned and placed into homes—Minnie was surrendered to us so she could have the opportunity to find a more suitable, long-term situation.

Although she has been living primarily outdoors recently, her previous family reports that Minnie is house trained. She has been around other dogs and does well with them, and she has shown no issues around cats. She seems to be socially appropriate, gentle, and easygoing with other animals.

Personality-wise, Minnie is truly a sweetheart. She can be shy and a bit timid at first, especially in the shelter environment, which can be overwhelming for a sensitive young dog. However, once she has a little time to settle in, her affectionate and loyal nature starts to shine. She doesn’t take long to warm up—she just needs someone willing to move at her pace and offer reassurance.

Minnie would thrive in a home that understands large-breed and guardian-dog tendencies, ideally with a solid containment plan and a commitment to giving her both guidance and companionship. With patience, consistency, and love, Minnie has all the potential to blossom into a devoted, steady companion. She’s still young, eager to please, and ready to learn—she just needs someone willing to give her the chance she’s been waiting for. 💛

We are always willing to take strays or animals that the owners can no longer care for. We take these animals by appointment and as space allows. To drop off animals to us we charge an intake fee of $30.00 which helps to provide vaccinations for our animals.
