Story
Hello! My name is Shep, and I’m a handsome Great Pyrenees with soft, gentle eyes that match my demeanor. Born in August 2022, I began my life with a family that didn’t treat me well, but luckily the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society took me in and my life has been changed forever! At first, I had a hard time trusting humans, but my foster dad and his little pup Finn worked really hard to earn my trust. I gradually began to realize that my foster dad is pretty alright, and my confidence started to grow. One day I released a joyful bark as an experiment to see how my foster dad would react, and he came close, gave me a gentle pat on the head and a kiss on the nose. That sealed the deal for me, because I knew at that moment that I was safe. Now, I’m a super happy and playful pup with a smile for miles! I love to explore my surroundings, and I’m super curious about the world around me. I love to play with the other dogs I live with, and I’m great with kids too. And I really love my humans, especially when they give me lots of love, ear scratches, and belly rubs. Who doesn’t love that? I’m a sweet and affectionate guy with a very loving disposition. I’ve been told that I’m a remarkable and gentle soul of a dog who has overcome great adversity in my life….all I know is that I have a heart full of love and I can’t wait to share it with my forever family!
