My story

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

Meet Bolt

This handsome Great Pyrenees is a big, loyal boy with an even bigger heart for his people. He absolutely loves human attention and wants to be with his people as much as possible. Once he bonds, he takes his role seriously and is very protective and devoted.

He is great with children, making him a wonderful family companion. However, because he can become jealous when attention is given to other animals, he needs to be the only pet in the home. Interactions with other dogs can become unsafe, so a pet-free home is required for everyone’s safety.

True to his Pyrenees nature, this big guy thrives outdoors and would happily spend all day outside. He’s looking for a home with a farm or acreage where he can roam, explore, and enjoy plenty of space.

He would do best with an experienced, confident owner who understands guardian breeds and can provide structure, boundaries, and lots of one-on-one attention. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped and ready for a loving family and the right environment where he can be a loyal companion and dedicated protector.

More about this shelter

Animals Are Our Mission

Over 1,100 animals pass through our doors every year. Did you know that the average cost to get our animals ready to be adoptable is roughly $350 per animal? That is because we require our adoptables to be spayed/neutered and fully vaccinated before adopting out.

Population control and disease management are issues in our community that we are working hard to resolve. Your donations help ensure we can continue our mission.

We have an amazing team of hard working staff caring for our animals 7 days a week. They are supported by a group of engaged board members that are focused on bettering our organization.
