Here's what the humans have to say about me:
MEET "BRYN" TEXAS, HOUSTON; FOSTER OR ADOPT
LOCATION: ALVIN, TEXAS
EMAIL: BigPawsK9FosterHouse@gmail.com
AVAILABLE FOR: FOSTER ASAP or FOSTER TO ADOPT, ADOPT
NAME: "BRYN"
DOB: 07/4/2025
BREED: GREAT PYRENEES X HOUND
GENDER: MALE
SIZE: LARGE/XLGE
HEALTH: GOOD, HEALTHY, is having TPLO surgery.
GOOD WITH: FEMALE DOGS, SHY WITH PEOPLE AT FIRST
Bryn was born wild, not by choice, but by circumstance.
He came into this world in a National Forest north of Houston, one of 21 dogs trying to survive where survival is never guaranteed. His dad, a Great Pyrenees. His mom, a Hound. The forest may look beautiful to us, but for dogs, it’s hell. Hunger. Fear. And people who see living beings as targets.
Bryn was shot. He carries three pellets still lodged in his body. He also has a severe knee injury, likely from running for his life. And as if that weren’t enough, Bryn is dealing with a painful condition where his body isn’t functioning the way it should, his penis does not fully retract. The veterinary team is hopeful this issue is neurological and that repairing his knee may also correct it. If not, Bryn will require additional surgery, using skin from another area of his body to create a protective flap. He is scheduled for surgery on 1/29/2026.
Somehow, through all of this pain and trauma, Bryn never gave up. He survived the forest. He survived cruelty. He waited.
Now Bryn is finally safe, but his fight isn’t over yet.
Next Thursday, Bryn will undergo surgery. We’re hoping his knee can be repaired with a simple MPL procedure, but if the damage is more extensive, it may require TPLO surgery with hardware, significantly increasing the cost. Either way, this surgery is the difference between a lifetime of discomfort and complications, or a future where Bryn can heal fully and live without constant pain.
Bryn has already endured more than any dog ever should.
Now he needs us to be the reason his story changes.
Please consider donating toward Bryn’s surgery (Thursday January 29th) and recovery. Every dollar helps give this brave boy not just relief, but the chance at a life where he can finally feel safe, whole, and loved. ❤️.

Our mission at Big Paws K9 Foster House is to establish a secure and nurturing haven for Anatolian Shepherds, Kangal, Great Pyrenees, Akbash and their mixes rescued from shelters, the streets, or unfortunate circumstances. Our dedicated team ensures a transitional environment either at the facility or within a foster home for these dogs until suitable forever homes can be identified for adoption. Throughout their stay with us, we prioritize the well-being of the dogs by affording them dedicated decompression time, compassionate care, and expert guidance. Our commitment extends to active engagement through structured work/play sessions, allowing us to comprehensively evaluate each dog's unique characteristics.
This thorough evaluation process enables us to provide detailed insights to our fosters, adopters, and our partnering rescue organizations. By offering a nuanced understanding of each dog's temperament, behavior, and needs, we aim to facilitate informed decision-making in placing these dogs into loving and appropriate homes.
Committed to education, we also promote spaying/neutering and work to make affordable vetting accessible within our community, championing responsible pet ownership for all.
