My story

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

We adopted River from the humane society when she was 6 mo old. She is now 1 year and 2 months old and a mix of Great Pyrenees, St. Bernard, Cane Corso, and German Shepherd. She weighs 105 pounds and has both the size and presence (that bark!) of a guardian breed, paired with a deeply affectionate and loyal nature. River is incredibly sweet and loving with her family, including our two children (ages 6 and 9). She walks well on a leash and can be redirected when she becomes unsure or reactive, but it takes an experienced hand. She is not reactive to all dogs or people, but she is very protective of her home and family. The reactivity manifests as big loud barks and lunges at new visitors to the house that we have not been able to manage. Because of this, we believe she would thrive best with an adopter with experience with guardian breeds. Our only goal is to place her in a home where she can feel safe, understood, and set up for long-term success.
