Looking for a puppy with both heart and personality? Meet Akita—the little explorer with a big spirit! Akita is one of seven Great Pyr mixes born to their devoted mama, Jade, in a nurturing foster home. Raised in a caring environment, Akita and his siblings are sociable, playful, and perfectly suited for family life. Akita is a thoughtful observer who enjoys watching the world before jumping into the fun. He loves running around with his siblings and especially enjoys playing with a ball, but when he’s ready for a break, you’ll find him retreating to his secret cubby hole—a cozy little hideaway where he can ponder life’s mysteries with his favorite toy by his side. If you’re looking for a puppy who balances playful energy with a gentle, independent spirit, Akita could be the perfect companion for your family. Akita will thrive in a home with a 5-foot secure fenced yard, a large breed female canine sister, and a family committed to providing consistent training, positive reinforcement, and structured routines. If you’re ready to have your heart stolen and gain a new best friend, put in an application to learn more about Akita—he is waiting to meet you!

NYS Registered Non-Profit Rescue # RR102. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) has been rescuing and adopting out Great Pyrenees since 2006. Our relationship doesn’t end with adoption, as we continue to support adopters throughout the lifetime of their dog.
Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
