Story
Hi, I'm Rocky, a 3-year-old fawn Great Pyrenees with a gentle soul and curious nature! 🐕 At 69 pounds, I'm a sturdy boy who's ready for my forever home. I'm good with other dogs, naturally quiet, and have a friendly, easygoing temperament. I'm a bit shy when meeting new people, so I'll need some time and patience to warm up and show you my sweet personality. Once I feel comfortable, I hope to become a wonderful companion by your side. 💛 There's someone special I'd love to bring along on my next adventure: my brother Knox! ❤️ We're a bonded pair, which means we're looking for a family with room in their hearts and home for both of us. Having my brother by my side helps make the world a little less intimidating, and we'd love to find a forever family where we can stick together. If you're ready for double the love and two handsome boys to call your own, come meet us! We can't wait to start our next chapter together. 🐾

Story
Chief is 2-year-old "who knows what" mix with a coat like a cow and the personality of a collie! This big guy has nothing but love to give, showing affection (like people) through hugs and kisses 😘 Don't let his tall frame intimidate you, as he is as cuddly as they come! Chief loves to play but will cuddle anytime of day, bringing goofy charm and affection to everyone he meets. A little shy at first, despite his size he jumps at the slightest unexpected noise. If you're looking for a playful companion who'll be your loyal friend through thick and thin, Chief would love to meet you!!

Story
D'Angelo is 2-year-old Shepherd mix who looks more like a little sausage than he does a dog. Well trained, easygoing and super cuddley, he loves his people. If you want to be absolutely adored every second of every day, D'Angelo is your guy! Those big eyes and silly face will greet you enthusiastically forever. He's a food-motivated guy who absolutely loves treats (obviously), so training is breeze! Getting along with every animal he meets, despite being a tad awkward, he enjoys a furry companion or staying solo. You can leave him out and about without issue, as he has good house manners and a gentle demeanor that makes him reliably well behaved! He's affectionate and gentle-hearted, though be can be a little shy for his first meet. But, once you get to know him, you'll see what a sweet, loyal companion he is!I
