Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Leopold’s story began in hardship. Thin, in pain, and mistreated, he wasn’t expected to survive—but he did. Through care and love, he left that pain behind and blossomed into a dog full of life.
Now, Leopold is pure joy. He skips and hops across the room, prancing with that signature sideways glance. He’ll cross his legs, wag his tail, and beam at you with eyes that sparkle with gratitude. Every bit of his quirky routine is infused with love—each hop a reminder of how far he’s come.
He needs to be your only dog, because after everything, he deserves that spotlight. He’s ready to share his laughter, his skips, and all his heartfelt quirks, making your home as joyful as he is.

Applicants have to fill out an application. Go to http://www.spgpc.com/adoptionprocess.htm The application consists of 4 pages and 60 questions relating fenced yards, whether they have had this breed before or large dogs. Three references are required, one from their veterinarian, one from someone they've gotten a dog from before (if applicable) and a personal reference. If the application looks good, then we proceed to the references. If the references are good then we schedule a home study to make sure the dogs will thrive in that environment. Finally we engage the applicants into a contract that spell out their responsibility to the dog and us and our responsibility to them and the dog they are adopting. We then assign a mentor to help them through the transition period and a 1 yr membership to the club. Whether they maintain the membership in force or not we are still a resource to them for the life of the dog. And should life happen, we always take our dogs back.

Our pets can be viewed by visiting our web site www.spgpc. Dogs are housed at our private facility and appointments to view the animals are easily made by calling (916) 791-7580. We are located in Granite Bay, CA which is 23 miles East of Sacramento.
We often frequent adoption events, so dogs can be viewed at those sites when they occur.

More about this rescue
We belong to a breed club and take in Great Pyrenees and Great Pyrenees mix dogs. Once a dog is taken into our program, it is restored to health, brought current on all vaccines, micro chipped, had microscopic fecal exams and treated for parasites and worms and had a heart worm test. If positive they are treated before making adoptable and if negative, they are put on a heart worm monthly preventative as well as a preventative for fleas and ticks. All dogs are groomed prior to adoption and are in good health.
